    A new broom should make a clean sweep.

    People are sequestered in their homes listening to expert
    talking heads that contradict each other every day. Isn’t government and
    political leadership wonderful? That’s why they’re leading and the rest of us
    are following. This is a special class of people you know, with degrees from
    Harvard and Yale and tongues that can debate for 24 hours non-stop with nary a
    breath taken. These people are a marvel to behold aren’t they?
    Just one question: How did they get us into this mess?
    People are sick and dying and the economy is on the brink of collapse.
    Shouldn’t our accomplished leadership have seen this coming? What were they
    doing? What were they thinking? Did they believe that a few four syllable words
    would deter a deadly pathogen stalking our communities like the Tenth Plague of
    Egypt? What kind of hubris must these people have to have allowed this to
    happen?
    Yes, one side was preoccupied with impeaching what they saw
    as a menace to the great state they had crafted to right all wrongs and seek
    vengeance through the courts to punish disfavored groups. But the other side
    was no better. They were pocketing the same lobbyist bribery from the culprits
    that released the plague for personal corporate considerations. While the pall
    approached no warning was given because the two sides were locked in combat
    like rutting male wildebeests that didn’t see the lion. Now we are paying a
    much steeper price than we should because precious time was lost at the
    beginning.
    This is an ugly situation and when we get to the other side
    of it, if we get there, we need to reconsider how we elect leaders and who is
    considered for leadership. Obviously there are too many highly educated people
    in leadership. The problem is that they identify with highly educated people on
    distant continents and abandon any concern they have for average people. That’s
    what globalization is all about. It’s an elitist betrayal and now we are being
    poisoned.
    A new broom makes a clean sweep and it’s time to purge our
    government of the treacherous thieves that occupy it. We need to use the
    election process to remove every single Congressman and Senator in US
    government-none of them protected us. We’d be better off with a government made
    up of truck drivers and plumbers. If that doesn’t work then violent overthrow
    is the only alternative.

    I have that issue too. Even cutting and pasting from a website. I suspect some formatting gets stripped away.

    Chinese leadership made it happen, Democrats are abetting them, the Chinese people are furious and so am I and most everyone else. ChiCom can't survive the wrath of the entire globe.

    Copy and paste from the internet does the same.
    When Donald Trump said to protest “peacefully”, he meant violence.

    When he told protesters to “go home”, he meant stay for an insurrection.

    And when he told Brad Raffensperger to implement “whatever the correct legal remedy is”, he meant fraud.

    War is peace.

    Freedom is slavery.

    Ignorance is strength.

    Good post Ray9......the current system has emerged incrementally over many years ... it will be difficult to turn it around , but I for one, believe it can be . I also believe that it will happen , by necessity , after the current virus crisis is averted......nothing worthwhile is ever easy. We need to go back to living in societies , not economies.
