The middle class has become a declining support base for the globalization of capitalism.  The rich have used us to get richer. This time, they screwed up. You don’t kill that proverbial goose if you want any more golden eggs. This time, the middle class can’t come back because there is no industrial base, no consumer economy to keep it going. Those Americans have joined the struggling masses to await their fate in the next chapter of American history. 

I said I’m not a quitter.  But like our military, I’m worn out. I have done too many tours without Spiritual sustenance, renewal, or rejuvenation. Still, that isn’t why I’m giving up. If I’m right and the coup is already accomplished and permanent, there really is no hope because it means the majority of Americans out there don’t even know it.

And if it explodes into public due to a war with Iran and subsequent martial law, count on half of America choosing to support the “government.”  Divide and conquer.

That is what the extreme partisan divide has accomplished over the last twenty-five years. Not knowing who the bad guys are is the first principle of psychological warfare. 

The perfect psyops war result:  They never fired a shot.
