Ten years left? Maybe twenty?
Maybe 100 years left. It is a slow bleed. Things do feel like they are coming very fast now. Social change just doesn’t turn on a dime. There is too much inertia. How fast, I just can’t say?
All I know for certain is that the informed and moral electorate we once had that was required to police the politicians is no longer in place, replaced by apathetic, moral relative voters voting their pocketbooks exclusively. That and we are rapidly approaching the tipping point where 50% of voters don’t pay any taxes. Then we are doomed.
It is very depressing seeing this decline. Very depressing. I wish I could be hopeful.
My single hope is that Americans do have a tendency to get up and go at the very last minute. I am just not so sure what we have left as Americans. The socialist government schools have really succeeded in brainwashing an entire couple of generations of Americans, and the huge immigrant population I once thought would save us — thinking they could most clearly see the new freedom they received here — I now thing will doom us as they try to import all of the freebies of socialism of the nations they left.
Very depressing being sold out by my fellow voters in their supreme ignorance of history, the Constitution and freedom.
