How @#$%ing Stupid Are We?

[Demeter]

54. How stupid are we?

Well, a lot more than I thought we were. But in all justice, stupidity is built into the system for purposes of theft by the 1%. It wasn't generated by the 99% from the grassroots....
I think the body politic had a psychotic break when Reagan was elected. The inmates began running the asylum and the 1% bought themselves a do-it-yourself fascism lab.

Good people want to follow the systems of society, but the systems have been purposefully broken, and they are deteriorating more with every day that passes. Good people are seeing the stupidity of trying to follow a broken system. I think that the body politic is starting to mend, finally. But that's a 40 year pendulum swing to undo. It will take another 40 years.

I'm not sure we have another 40 years, frankly, before a shortcut revolution resets the clock.
