As we keep posting even worse stories about what is happening hour after hour, week after week, month after month, year after year, President after President, it just keeps getting worser and worser.
I so agree! I believe that we are closer to the tipping point though! I'm not really anxious to have a revolution. Best not to fire the first shot, but I do not want to leave this mess for my grandkids!

I'm not really anxious to have a revolution.
I am.
Sooner the better, hopefully before I leave this mess to someone else.
Here is breakdown on our first Revolution.
"Are You a Three Percenter?

Heres a very important set of facts about the Revolutionary War that every person who would call themselves an American should know.
During the Revolutionary War, only THREE percent of the people actually fought against Great Britain.
Only TEN percent of the citizens actively supported that three percent.
Approximately TWENTY percent considered themselves to be on the side of the Revolution, but they did not actively participate.
Towards the climatic end of the war, approximately THIRTY percent actually fought on the side of the British.
The rest of the citizens had no disposition either way. They didnt care. They didnt want anything to do with what they deemed to simply be a political issue.........
If we wait for a majority of Americans to raise their voices, we are lost.
Another one: is this "rebuilt" America isolationist or does it concern itself with geopolitical power vacuums in anyway?
Power vacuums in total...
The Monroe Doctrine was the first assertion by this emerging country, for European powers to stay out of the Americas. The second fact was the Civil War which ended in this country being one power, not two.
Isolationism then as now would not have been in our interest. There was a power vacuum in the Americas and we filled it. The Europeans stayed away. In the beginning it was enforced by the British because it kept Russia and other countries away from the Americas.
With isolationism, our Northwest States might well be Russian.
Sum total is this, isolationism is the best posture of all, except it does not work. It cannot work because THERE IS ALWAYS A BULLY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WANTS TO BE BOSS.
