Have you seen any pictures of the great wall of D.C.? it is increasable, guarded by our finest troops who are well armed. It’s 12 feet high and topped with razor wire. It surrounds all of capitol hill and then some. Well anchored to the ground with bolts and concrete. Check points with soldiers and police. No unauthorized American could enter, it is a government dream wall.
A dictator’s ultimate protection from the people, but since it is not around the White House but around Capitol hill, it protects the Democrats and the Republicans. The Republicans are not in power so it must be for the Democrats. Strange because Nancy made all sorts of statements, why walls didn’t work and they were immoral. But I guess that only refired to wall to keep illegals out of the United States not keeping Americans away from the seat of government and that wall sure keeps Americans away.
The country that supposably supports freedom of speech and assembly does none of these things anymore. The coup-de-ta has already occurred while we were sleeping and it is too late to do anything. Some might say we have to do something but going up against armed soldiers, our own people, seems imposable. One of the great advantages is that those Republicans who were always against Trump can come out of the closet Like Romney.
Now that the Legislators are protected, they can let in more unskilled workers in and then help them become citizens to insure their continuation of power. Make Washington D.C. a state with all the people there dependent on government they will keep the Dems in power, it is in their best interest. What about Puerto Rico? So maybe some chance but pretty dependent on more money and English is not the language. But then again two more Senators and lots of Representees and California is transferring into speaking Spanish.
Strengthen voter laws and make sure everyone gets to vote, even illegals, after all they live here too. Vote by mail that way even those who have passed on can support their party. Voting by mail also ensures that no ballot be waisted because someone can make sure the lonely ballot does not go un-counted. Those who moved out of state can vote too because they were in the state once and knows what needs to be done.
The ruling elite are safe, Republican or Democratic it does not mater they will continue in power, protected by the wall. Soon they can probably they can even take it down as the people will have given up. At this time, they only have one person to control and that is of course Donald J. Trump. You might include his kids but they can be dealt with later and they will be.
So, the deal is done, Americans will just have to deal with the destruction of “White Privilege” and the rise of identity politics. Giving jobs to unqualified people because of their color. Lowering the standard of living for all but a few Americans and raising the standard for illegals. Enforcement of laws will become very selective. They need to be because they have only been used against bad people and all should share the privilege. If you have not seen the wall check out; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaQU7yljBr8&feature=youtu.be it is a real joy to watch.

Its unfair but what are citizen sheep to do. Revolt, do what democraps do. I dont have a answer.

What happened to The United States of America? Why is it “us” and “them”? Isn’t what is happening here the exact same thing that happened when the people of England revolted and began a new life, with a “Constitution” in “The Land of the Free”? Where is the “Constitution”? I’m sorry I’ve lived long enough to see this and I’m sorry for what I am leaving to my children and grandchildren. Nikita Khrushchev said in 1961 “We do not have to destroy America with missiles, America will destroy itself from within”. Sad but true.
Bill Bishop says
You kinda sound like a white supremacist yourself. But worse than that if you call freedom of speech and right to assemble is what happened January 6, you really need some help. If that happened after a police shooting, it would be a riot. If it was after a protest against racism, it would be a mob. If a black or hispanic got up there on Jan 6 and said what your leader said, he would be a terrorist worthy of hanging. Get real Mike, your philosophy is so extreme you don’t make any sense at all. You won’t even admit this country needs to hold trump accountable. (Hint: 450,000 dead Americans, 5 dead from Jan 6). I can’t believe you’re on the Overton Power Board.
Ann Ott says
Well said. Thank you.

Bishop, Your comments are way out of line. It is not like discussing or debating different points of view. It is the type of attitude that strips dually elected officials of their office because; “believe as we do, say as we do, or we need to send you to re-education camp.” But at my age, it is easer to send me to a labor camp so I can die quickly. Just as so many people who think and talk like you, have done to so many in other countries. You must suppress descent, is it my turn next or do the Jews go first?
ann: I see you totally agree with bishop
John Darcy says
Treasure free speech, right of assembly, private ownership of firearms? Well, if so, one should resist the authoritarian impulses of those who would trample the Constitution, like the previous potus & those who misguidedly follow him. There are no Khalishnikovs in the hands of Russian citizens. Speak out against the thug Putin and go to jail without right of redress. This is direction which the former president and his accomplices in Congress have led us. The authoritarian outcome sought by the previous president would cancel our Constitutionally assured freedoms.
Jimmy Wike says
I agree with Mr Bishops assessment that Mike Young should not be on the Overton Power Board. Mike is definitely suited for a much higher office with increased responsibilities.
Carolyn fulton says
Mr. Young. You make no sense whatsoever. Good grief.
Robert Monson says
Well said Mike,hard to believe we`re watching the decline of America.
Mike Golden says
I think the wall around the Capitol is to keep the Swamp Creatures in. At least then they are all in the same place where we can watch them.
Margie Gregory says
It amazes me that some of these responses, to a very well thought out article, resort to derogatory remarks about the author. Certainly uncalled for and certainly not welcome. I applaud you Mike Young. Keep up the good work. I look forward to your truthful, informative articles.
