I was raised Christian, rebelled like a typical kid, was very scientific and logical and, then gave that up when I realised what a waste it is and recognized a God [larger power] in the universe that science didn't get. Background in a nutshell.
My folks are sort of head in sanders, not really keen on what I would call reality, but they are active in government etc etc and try to make things better. They fringe on being radical sometimes, short of bombing abortion clinics.
That said, we had a disagreement last night. What do ya think about it?
They claim a small minority of powerful and driven people are wrecking the government by working their way in and making laws that suit themsleves. [well, that's every government I've ever seen on this planet, but I digress] so, they spend much of their aged time WORRYING about that and are getting kinda mad that I am not worried about it to and trying to change it.
I'm apathetic towards goverment and all that crap and they don't like that... but I see it that majority WILL ALWAYS rule in the end. They say no.
I think that in any large group of people, those that ARE the majority WILL rule due to numbers and force. I say, when certian laws are voted in by a quiet minority serving their ends, and not ours, people will simply ignore those laws and that will be that. 5% of the governing people can not POSSIBLE arrest or execute the other 95% and keep things functional. It's simply impossible. People will always rise up when they have to. Maybe not if it's not really bothering them, but when it does affect them, they WILL pick up a shovel and clobber the law shoving idiots back to the stone age or their grave, whatever it takes.
What do you guys think?
Do you stay up nights worrying about the government and how minority groups are controlling the majority as the majority abides by being politically correct? I'm not worried about it at all. And although I'm not a violent guy, I'll pick up a shovel and use it, or die trying, believing that my beliefs are worth dieing for. Or what the heck is your life about anyway? Going whatever way the crowd pushes you?
Seems America is going where it is because too many of us majority types do nothing.... just like me. It's not really bugging me at all. The things that are important to me, God, family, friends then myself are fine. But when the time comes I'll do what I need to do.
and here's a music video to ponder while you think
