1. Money won't do it
We don't have enough money to match RepubliCorp. If we have a solution, it will come from somewhere else.

5. Try Reading The Declaration If Independence for clues.
If you want to know what it's really going to take.

And then ask yourself how many Reality TV Soaked, Sports Drunk, Junk Culture Hypnotized, Dumbed down to the point of Apeness, Apathetic, Plastic, Karsahsian fellating, Fear and Terror (Terra!) Festishizing American Sheep are going to be willing to go there.

I think we may have reached the point where those of us who can still see, are not mesmerized and helpless in The Matrix, and still give a shit may unfortunately be witnesses to history.

I hope I am wrong.

But Idiocracy is starting to look like a Documentary Of Modern America.

7. I hate to say it
But the only way we might ever see progressive reform I'm our lifetimes is to let them finish completely screwing the pooch. It might well take a Great Depression level of misery for people to cry out for progressive soultions. Sad but I'm afraid true :(
