The ruling classes have thru out almost all of history made war on the middle (merchant) classes once the middle had sufficient wealth to threaten the rulers. We middle class folks in the USA are not an exception. However we do have a Constitution and it is our job to elect representatives that will enforce our Constitution. Until we do that, (looking less likely all the time) we (as a people) will deserve our fate.
Our elected rulers have never let the Constitution interfere with how they govern the country and they aren’t about to start now.
I think if the writers and signers of the document were here today, they'd be arrested for being extreme or maybe infiltrated and accused of being domestic terrorist.
I've notices some things over time. Those in GOP and the elected class lie as a matter of routine. Yes, the Dems are worse...Obviously, goes without sayin.
Have you noticed Americans have to beg and plead with them just to support basic common sense things which would actually benefit Americans? But it never happens.
All this while illegals by the millions are treated like first class citizens, as big biz benefits while what's left of the middle class are literally forced to subside their housing, food, medical, education etc.
Like our lawless borders for instance, the declining dollar, public schools, our sovereignty, the middle class, etc. In fact with so many millions of people in this country illegally, I'd guess it's pretty much compromised our electoral process. Getting it back now would be nearly impossible. Over the past 30+ years American citizenship became all but pointless. It seems like they want to divide the once united.
The representatives have become non-representatives who only looking out for themselves, their perks, benefits and government pensions. But they tell people how much they care all the time.
"We're going to take America back" is repeated often by all of them.
Did you notice over many decades government is never reduced in size and scope and only grows larger and larger, more controlling, more punitive? Along with never ending new taxes, regulations, fines, fees etc.
In fact I noticed government is now the biggest employer in the entire country. With more government unionized employees than private sector America now has.
Many get into government and come out millionaires with multiple opulent retirement pensions...Didn't Congress exempt itself from Obama Care while forcing it on private sector middle America?
I think we were warned about public servants becoming the masters.
Just a few things I've noticed over the years.
