    We aren’t even close.

    Virtually every last American in the middle class, what’s left of it, will need to have a very sharp decline in their quality of life before we stand up in solidarity and force change. So, when their “Dancing With The Stars” gets taken away or their morning cup of coffee is so extremely expensive they can’t afford it anymore. Basically, when they stop getting their fix.

    We’re headed in that direction for sure, but we ain’t there yet.

    Americans are pussies. We let creature comforts make us complacent well past the point that we should have done something.

      I’m probably going to get downvoted into oblivion but it’s the white middle class that won’t do anything until they lose their conveniences. Asian, black, latino, Indian, and middle eastern know they aren’t wanted here and their thoughts and opinions are often left ignored or hardly represented in government. They’ve had the bare minimum for decades and times of political and economic strife hit them first and hardest.

      White America rather vote for a con-man that tells them what they want to hear than even fathom the idea of an “undesirable” sharing the same luxuries they enjoy. I got mine fuck you
