'No judge, jury, law or treaty is going to fix this level of corruption'

[Dirty Vol]

There is a third way. Refuse to participate in the farce. Do not be a willing contributor to your own destruction. Just walk away. Violence is their tool, not ours.
Who is John Galt?

Absolutely! I hate resorting to their tactics
But when all other resources have been expended and diplomatic efforts no longer work at some point you need to punch the bully in the mouth and beat the dog out of em or they will continue to bully. The analogy may not fit perfectly because the problem is so much more complex then a singular individual bullying another. It's just what popped into my head. But if we had that type of mentality that pitbull mentality then I think we wouldn't have so many problems and issues that are left unchecked.

Not familiar with John Galt but I'll research.

Give them bread and circuses and they will never revolt.

Bread, circuses... and I would add "wine" (wine/drugs/"soma"... anything to sedate the people or allow them to escape reality).

If you are going to research John Galt, set aside some time. My paperback of Atlas Shrugged is over 1200 pages. The audio book is around 60 hours

One of my favorite books; I've read it at least three times, and I'll read it again one of these days. The only detractor for some will be that the technology and social interactions are definitely dated.

I read it one summer, it was tedious in stretches to be honest...but glad that i did. Didnt she end up being a socialist/communist though? Seems like i remember learning Rand was a commie at heart.

The NSA employs more people than all the other 3 letters combined. Ever seen them on the news? Read an article about a big drug bust or foiled bombing???

The state/feds are so damn corrupt we would revolt if we knew half their BS....what ever changed after Snowden exposed the feds spying on every US phone call, email, etc????

Same thing that happened after the Dimwits staged a supposedly unforeseen MAIL IN election with enough fraud to steal a presidency.


Nothing. Not a damn thing has changed. Nor will it. I love this cou try and its people...even the ones who dont look or think like me. I hate this 2 party farce of a government and their crooked BS

So to be clear, if no judge, jury, law or treaty will fix it (I would add voting), then WTF is left?

I know what's left in my mind, but I'm curious to know what you guys think is the next option.

It left with the people, who all powers from gov derive. I think I read that somewhere.

There are a good 300 pages you can skip though if I remember right: the part where John goes into his manifesto. Ms Rand beats you over the head with that for ever. Other than that... She knew Barry Soetoro.
