I Have A Simple Question For The Class... DO YOU... In Total... Respect Our Government/System ???

9. No, not at all.

Of course, I'm more jaded than most because I was raised in the heart of it. I learned what I know about HAM radio from Barry Goldwater in his "shack". My grandparents were movers and shakers in the republican party and Mame Eisenhower was my godmother.

I've had a doctorate level education in American politics and how it really works, and has worked, for at least a century.

Strangely(?) the biggest problem I've had educating people during my life is the near total resistance I encounter from the people most abused and hurt by that system whenever I've shown them.

Nobody that matters cares about you at all. Not even a little, tiny bit. Live or die, you don't enter into the equation at all. They have their games, their battles, their friends and allies, and their plans, but none of it includes you AT ALL.

If people ever catch on to that, they might have some hope of doing something about it, but so far the overwhelming majority of Americans prefer to pretend that this is a Frank Capra film and they will be saved in the end.
