The U.S. government couldn't shut down the Internet, right? Think again.

8. I have been singing this tune about "It Can't Happen Here" before the 2016 election

I know I have become a pain in wherever to many of my friends and my kids, their friends, and other people about this book, but it is one that must be read, and pounded over people'e heads that we are all susceptible to what happened in Germany with the Nazis, in Venezuela with Chavez, now in Spain with Pablo Iglesias who was a pupil of Chavez, and other parts in the World where authoritarians have taken power, those people never thought it would happen there.

You are 100% correct, people hear "It Can't Happen Here" then ignore it, and by the time they wake up, its already there.

What worries me the most, which I saw happen in Venezuela and other countries is that the military remains very quiet, and when you can corrupt the military then we are all toast. That is what has happened in those countries where authoritarians, disguised as "Socialists" (no reference to Sanders, he is a "Social-Democrat" ) took hold and corrupted the military who then act against the people, and when you have the force of the military by your side then it is very difficult to fight, although I do have confidence in the USA citizens.

Why do I worry about this? Because the son of a friend of mine who has a very high ranking in the Navy seems to think trump is doing everything well. Is he ignoring the facts, or is there something else going on?
