The long-term outlook for the USA really started getting depressing in the late 80’s, and continued until the gigantic Dem meltdown in 2016. Why?
Because all of these things:
* export of US wealth to other countries
*control of our media and politics by foreign and domestic enemies of freedom
* transformation of the US Government bureaucracy into an army of unaccountable activist criminals
* subversion of our public education system
* debt-financed investment in welfare at a massive scale
* perversion of the Justice Industry from courts to prisons
*perfection of mechanisms to heavily interfere with true local and state level representation
* personal enrichment by a significant percentage of politicians using manipulation of “non-profits”, law enforcement, the “drug war”, and pay-to-play
have been accelerating at the catastrophic expense of the Working American, the Working American’s family, and the Working American’s future.
All of these things were generally dismissed as “conspiracy theory” until very recently, because if accepted as possible/likely……then collective faith is massively shaken in national financial/political/legal/media/military/justice systems. As long as you have good credit, new car, a travel trailer, and a great vacation, everything must be OK, right?
These treasonous acts and policies have always been done opaquely, such that folks at all levels of government “service” could participate and rarely be directly associated in the public eye. Because information was highly controlled, and the system took care of its own. Mavericks ended up with concrete shoes, figuratively or literally. The United States government had fully morphed into the world’s richest/largest Mafia organization, and the Don’s are generally not U.S. citizens.
Except these things are no longer “conspiracy theory”, they are “conspiracy fact”. Nobody can point to any of those bullet points above, and say “that’s not true”, or “that’s not the case” anymore. Too many single facts are out in the open now, and people who cannot connect the dots to see the larger picture are either willfully ignorant or flat out lying.
The “slow roll” since election 2016 of exposing these facts at the national scale has certainly forced everyone in the public eye (media individuals, politicians, corporate marketing, CEOs, judges) to take a position that cannot be easily concealed.
The more that the media personalities, true believers, and political heads melt down in public, are exposed in their blatant lies, and are forced to make increasingly outlandish and extreme statements, the better.
The really difficult choices for all of you (us) are going to be whether or not we are willing to associate local organizations and politicians with the national corruption. Corruption doesn’t happen in a vacuum, and significant resources have been used in your hometown/state over decades to destroy the democratic process and balance of republic representation, without you realizing it, in order to assume control of your life and resources under false color of national consensus.
Bottom line, the facts are now in the open. We know, in general, what has been happening to our country and who has been funding it. We know how our politicians enrich themselves in office. We know that the media are 100% complicit and part of the organization.
We know that our local processes have been subverted and corrupted. Problem is, this doesn’t get immediately exposed at the local level, because the evidence for such is part of process/results, not individual names being tied to national investigations (unless there is a helluva lot more to the indictments). The longer this drags out, the more that our local politicians, agencies, and bureaucrats will be forced to take a public position by their actions. Mayors, sheriffs, judges, reps, and agents. They prefer to operate in the grey, it protects them and provides plausible deniability.
To those chomping at the bit and demanding “something” be done:
Let the national game continue until there is serious definition from a watching public perspective that there is a black-and-white struggle going on, and personal freedom (and revitalization of the Republic enterprise) or government control (and fundamental national transformation to de facto oligarchy) are the options. Then you can demand that your local rulers take a position, however you interact with them. The legal foundations of our country provide plenty of guidance for your response.
