OK, Zac knows me by now from personal correspondence and posts here. So I will come clean. I like to do whatever I can to challenge, shake up, change, or make things difficult for the status quo. I've been doing this since before I was eligible for draft registration during the Vietnam (police action) War.
You can try to recruit me to vote for Trump but, I already did in the primary. Why, because NY state law requires you to reregister your party affiliation some X number of weeks prior to the primary and I couldn't make the date. Why was I a republican? Ron Paul!. What was I going to change to? Democrat. Why? Bernie, not because I liked him but because I wanted to see what kind of tyranny America wanted to live under for a change. That being Socialistic or Fascist, Bernie vs Trump (my bet for that one was on Trump).
What we may have gotten is status quo Hillary (corporate) Fascism vs Trump (Fascist dictatorship? we'll see). Time will tell if he gets elected but (except for Brixit) I don't believe those in control will allow it to happen. Those in power will do what ever it takes to stay in power and those who are not will try to do even more.
Kind of reminds me of the book, It Can't Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis 1935. If you have read it you will see the similarities for your self and understand exactly where I am coming from. If you haven't you can find it here:
http://gutenberg.net.au/ebooks03/0301001h.htmlSpeaking of which, how many of you knew about the Silver (Legion) Shirts? America's brand of Germany's Brown Shirts and Italy's Black Shirts? I promise you were not taught it in public school. It's my understanding they had an organization in virtually every county in the US of A in it's day. They are mentioned in Lewis' book. Think books almost 100 years old are not worth reading? Look again. Ours is only a very thinly opaqued veil disguised form of corporate fascism. It will exist only as long as we refuse to see it . . . and buy into the nationalistic and brain washing propaganda they are feeding us. So long as we accept it, we will not be able to change it.
As I used to tell Libertarian Party Members while infighting, "we are not the enemy" (in this case Dems vs Rebus). "The enemy is big government's power over us". I have since added "International Corporation's power over us and influence over government" to the enemy.
The only answer I have found is the complete decentralization of national governments and international corporations with, a corresponding increase in the rights, powers, resilience, and interdependence of individuals and communities, followed by the region and state. Hence, a local government at the top style of power structure. The Cantons of Switzerland seem a similar structure. The Theory Z, and inverted pyramid style management also comes to mind.
Now I also believe it is very likely possible they will be responsible for their own downfall. I situation I am most happily willing to assist every legal way I can. However, it's what picks up the pieces I am mostly afraid of if the answer above is not significantly in place at the time.
