And the process is so twisted that smart problem solvers who could help come up with solutions (like me  ) are scared off from participating...instead clueless megalomaniacs are drawn to the offices.
So how to start the revolution? She wanted to march on DC and "shut down the govt" but I don't think that 60's tactics will fly these days. So how to effect real change? And no, Hillary in '08 does NOT count. |
10 years now and no revolution. Until now, and we have 2. Donald Trump is leading the revolution for the Right and Bernie Sanders is leading the revolution for the Left.
