In solitary for 23 hours a day, I might make it 72 hours before flippin' out. And some of those people are in there for non-violent crimes. The US is #1 for incarceration rate yet so many claim to be religious. Psychopaths rule the US and a lot of other countries.

Society is becoming unglued.

The USA is supposed to be a free country, but it is a police state. The US is no longer a democracy, Americans no longer have rights, and everything is illegal.

The government blatantly breaks the law and then laughs and expects Americans to obey the law and pay taxes.

How can Americans sleep at night now?

What would an American do if he was married, had a house, car, job, and $100,000? Would he throw everything away to fight for freedom or would he try to justify being unconstitutionally wiretapped, groped by the TSA, being tracked with license plate readers, stopping for checkpoints, and being stopped and frisked?

How much is liberty worth to you?

Maybe Americans might benefit from studying King Charles, the French Revolution, the American Revolution, the Civil War, and the Vietnam War.

So well said. Thank you.

The only way out of this is mass enlightenment. Until then, the power of delusion and fear is too strong.

All shareholders in these operations, accountants, administrators, beneficiaries, are guilty and should be accused of crimes against humanity and possibly tossed off a cliff to boot for funsies.

1% of America, 3.3 million people, are locked in concrete cages, right this very second.

I don't know how anyone can look at that and say America is a generally humane and compassionate society. They've pulled out all the stops to get as much power as possible.

Sad thing is that most US communities have no insight, input, or even interest in who's in their local jail/prison. A society can be measured by how it treats the worst off. Certain individuals need to be separate from others, but all people deserve dignity.

The US has become a farcical perversion of its alleged core principles.

Why is everyone always bandying about the phrase "greatest country on earth" and calling its president "leader of the free world"? We are the world's biggest bully, and the bullying starts at home.

The USA is now an immoral bankrupt warmongering police state flooded with illegal immigrants.

Americans either don't know or want to know that the US is collapsing or think that nothing can be done to save the USA.

There is also a group of people like Thomas Paine, Patrick Henry, Gandhi, MLK, Snowden, and Assange who see the problems of the world and cannot stay silent even when speaking up is risky.

If you see the problems with the US and are having trouble sleeping at night, now is the time to say something.

The collapse is real and is getting worse by the day. The problems will not go away. Even if we cannot save the USA, we must at least try to wake people up and prepare them so that they can be allies when the US Ponzi economy collapses, the civil war breaks out, and the elites start WWIII.

What good would money do if you end up in a concentration camp?

One way to raise awareness about the collapse is to make and pass out business cards with links to:

https://www.theburningplatform.com

http://www.returnofkings.com

You should also start a website today with links to pro-freedom sites like the Infowars, Lewrockwell, Blacklistednews, Zerohedge, Whatreallyhappened, Cato, Mises Institute, Judicial Watch, Institute for Justice, Heritage Foundation, the Hoover Institution, ACLU, Libertarian Party, NRA, the Birch Society, militias, and John Stossel, Ron Paul, and John Whitehead articles to get the word out. Every freedom website will increase awareness and bring more people to our side.

Most people know something is wrong, but they don't know what and feel hopeless about what to do. The best weapon Americans have against the elites is our numbers.

The 1% can use all of the power of the media, corporations, Hollywood, Wall Street, and the government to defeat the patriots, but we must try. You have to live with your conscience.
