If our very liberty depends on electoral outcomes, do we actually live in a free, constitutionally defined republic?
No, we do not. We are currently living in the same phase as China, Russia, Cuba, Vietnam and others went through on the
way down towards socialism. Soak the rich, spread the
wealth, a government check in every mail box..what’s not to
like for the vast majority of unthinking masses?
They all learned after 40-50 years of trickle up poverty
that socialism does not work. Did you know China currently
has 1.2 Million millionaires while they had almost none 25
years ago? Did you know Russia has a flat tax?
By the year 2060 we will wake up and demand change.
Until then, democrats are in driver’s seat.
Of course, on a superficial level our liberty is direct related to elections.
On a more long-term aspect our liberty is tied to the 2nd Amendment and the willingness of citizens to protect the liberty demonstrated and offered to us by the Founding Fathers.
