    I hate messing up replies - sorry about that. Anyway, I completely agree. We are very close to needing/wanting a forced reworking of the US government. Fuck, it’s only been a “democracy” for around 60 years. People that are, somehow, loyal to the constitution are therefore loyal to an oligarchy designed to make the rich richer. Fuck. When the constitution was framed and signed, roughly 6% of the population could vote and they were all wealthy white men that owned land.Things need to happen, and US citizens need to be very up in arms, but the arms won’t work despite 2nd amendment beliefs (I do believe in that amendment personally) because, in the end, small arms cannot harm a fighter or bomber. The US citizens are, despite the guns, incapable of actual revolution - ever.

      scrap the constitution, start over from scratch. most other countries have rewritten theirs every 20 years or so.
