...rampant inequality, hopelessness, powerlessness and despair

... 'TRADE SECRET' programming code--code that you and i are forbidden by law to review--in ALL the vote tabulation machines in the U.S.A., private code that is largely controlled by ONE, PRIVATE, FAR RIGHTWING-CONNECTED corporation (ES&S, which bought out Diebold) with NO AUDIT AT ALL in half the states in the U.S. and a miserably inadequate 1% audit in the other half.
We need many things to peacefully overcome the forces that are running this criminal enterprise that our state snd federal governments have become. We need awesome heroes like Kathy Kelly. And, among other things, we need to restore vote counting to the PUBLIC VENUE!
