7. If I ran the show...

I would leave the internet " Free "; what better way to gather intel on potential trouble-makers? I'm sure it isn't that hard to track an IP ( warning, I don't really know what that means; just that it is a location of some sort ).

This country is clearly getting primed for the rude awakening that everything we were taught as kids was bullshit. The Rich own this place and they own you. Forget about your "rights"; that experiment is over. The Wealthy are tired of spending all that money to control your country.

Be glad for the scraps that they give.

You can't fight it, either. If you try to take a stand, you will be a " terrorist". Your family will not even be allowed to know what happened to you when you are arrested. If you are tortured, oh fucking well! It happens all over the World, right now.

What makes you so special ???

My only hope is that some group of Elites might have some nostalgic feelings for the Good old USA and ease up on the Totalitarian hammer just a little. Perhaps we will be allowed to keep our Democratic facade.

My other hope was that this collapse of our civilization would wait a few years so I could learn to grow my own food. Maybe the only answer left will be to exit the monetary system as much as possible. Turn away from national debt/ponzi and just live without the things that they will use to keep people in line.

Or maybe I'm just paranoid.


Still, its pretty funny how people here are so aware of news around the world, yet they assume that it cannot happen here.

That's the worst part; no one will even believe it can happen until its over.....
