We can only be held responsible for the representatives of our respective districts, or the representatives of our respective states, in terms of voting. On the organizational level, the party machines are the ones who help them get elected, both locally and nationally, and then there are the fat cats, like the Koch Brothers, who fund the whole mess. The one hope I have is Trump, and he’ll only have four years to fix the rot of centuries. Those four years will have to be a revolution by other means than force of arms. Or force of arms if that fails.
I agree with your statement. That fat cat money definitely helps spur people on to pull the lever for self-serving or government serving twits. I don’t think there are enough people who would actually take up arms in this country to save her from the rot within. We laugh at France but the people there continue to rise up. We have the advantage with arms but folks are just happy to go along with the status quo as long as they have internet and tv.
