It had to happen someday. I hope we can weather this and come back stronger in a few years.

    We have a large population that totally checks out of politics. There lives are rarely effected all that much by it… Until now. People are starting to wake up, the tides are beginning to change. It’s happening a lot slower then it should have, and it’s scary how far this regime is getting before we get our shit together, but it is slowly happening.

      😄good to hear!

      Wish you all luck over there, let’s hope this results in something that kills bi-party-system and rather than getting a one party system, it gets a 20 party system.

      Can recommend swiss voting system, I really like that system (of course, it has many flaws as well, but I have not seen a better system yet)

        I fear there might be too many people that will just want to go back to status quo, and not change things to prevent this from happening again. Especially since the banks and corporations will be wanting nothing to fundamentally change so they can keep exploiting people.

        But hopefully I’m just being pessimistic
