What a depressing and, I think, accurate post. However, since so many in the Us want to turn the country into a banana republic, all should reflect on a characteristic of such countries - death squads, right and left. We are approaching the point where solutions cannot be achieved through the ballot box anymore.
I agree about the ballot box. The left is doing well in doing what they do best, cheat to win. The cheating is only going to get worse. There are fewer and fewer of us who was born in the 1940s and 50s. The 30s and older are getting very, very old. My brother is 83. He is starting to really feel his years. Our groups will be gone in a few years, and the younger generations are not as conservative. When the majority of these younger people say they want socialism, it won’t take many years for them to have it. Once all our generations are gone, they will be the ones making those decisions. They will get what they want.
