Wait until gas is $14.00 a gallon and a loaf of bread is $9.00. They'll be out for blood.

The obvious answer to this is to make things more local.

But, ironically enough, more and more people want the govt to do more and more things for them, while complaining that the govt gets in their way or is intrusive.

There's a reason that over 90% incumbents get re-elected, but polls show over 70% of people being polled think govt officials are bad, headed in the wrong direction and needs change. They're happy with their guy, they're dissatisfied with yours..

We are at a moment culturally, where generationally, the things from traditional United States are no longer seen as necessary. The VP declared just a few days ago, the internet is a basic human right. I'm not sure if that is malfeasance or ignorance, but the outcome is the same. A younger generation doesn't know the difference between a man and a woman, or what a fundamental Human right is.

Further, younger generations have no belief in a creator, and as such their rights are now defined by the state. 2+ years in, and people are still begging their local govts to return some freedom to not have to jail their face, or their children's faces. A trucker convoy in Canada has done more to propel freedom here in the USA than anything done by just about anyone else in the last few years.. In Canada, a place where they aren't free.. a place where it's literally as I stated above.. which is, the govt is the definer of freedom there(not taking anything away from my Canadian friends here).

Honestly, most of the Republicans just seem to enable the Democrats. They just passed a CR again, and there were only like 9 Republicans who signed that statement to not fund a govt that enforces vax mandates. They say there against mandates, while signing in legislation that entrenches it into law.

Honestly, I think only a convention of states has a real shot at slowing the bleeding down. But really, if the people no longer believe in the declaration of independence, then it doesn't really matter about anything else, it's time to shop for whatever system/style of Chinese capitalism you prefer. That's where we're headed
