The totalitarians of this world have invested a lot of effort infesting the education and cultural systems of our country over the past generation or so. At some point, that graph bar will be low enough that we will willingly turn our lives over to our rulers. Many will welcome the chance to give up their liberties for promised benefits and loot. What I've been calling "fuehrerlust."
Some things I saw in the last presidential election scared the crap out of me. We're not supposed to be electing gods.
There was a reason I used to post on Venezuela a lot.
