Relying on politics and politicians to solve our soon-to-destroy-us-all problems is beginning to look more and more stupid by the second!
Yeah, I came that that conclusion right after we failed to win the Senate. There is only one way we will get our country, our freedoms and a limited government back.
It remains to be seen if the rest of the population comes to the same conclusion and begins to act on it, or if surrender is also the course chosen by the sheep
Part of me says the American population has simply been domesticated, and the only way free men will continue to exist is to divorce themselves from that mass. That's why we need a new frontier. Just as we were founded by those few from the Old World who bristled under its managed, parochial, and stifling society, it's time for the same thing to happen. America
is the "Old World" now.
Of course, we have no such thing. There's nowhere to go. To answer your question, I think a substantial -- maybe even majority -- portion of the populace will choose surrender. I mean, haven't they already? They would prefer the certitude of a life stripped of all those super scary unknowns, one where every parameter is dictated by government.
Samuel Adams said it best:
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom — go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!
