Sir wizard,
THAT was one kinda scary illustration with all those people coming and jumping to their deaths. I know the point you made but I was wondering whether something like that , when thought about, does not at least trouble some others at least a little?
I guess I may be a little soft as I get older.
That said, yer post was accurate in that people just act like sheeple almost always and blindly follow along even to their own demise.. They just never bother to stop and think or question anything.
DID everyone else except for a few here forget that the biggest fear the Founding fathers had was the government getting too big and the people being afraid and threatened by it like they were with King George?
They looked ahead far into the future and did their best to protect the freedoms and rights of the people to live happily and unhampered by stifling government dictates and over reach..
I think Thomas Jefferson would say to scrap the whole thing and lets start over again and only have part time representatives with ZERO PAY and ZERO pensions and see who wants to really serve the country like they did early on..
The level of ignorance of most people is astonishing to me..
