Throw these grifters out of government. How? They hold all the wealth and power and platforms too.

There are still just a small minority of us who have any idea what's going on. I have tried to share and been laughed at and/or called crazy and paranoid for not accepting whatever the television says like normal people.

Both parties and just about everyone at the federal level is in the pockets of these billionaire elitists. They own our entire medical system and all the media with the exception of a few independent commentators on sites like this.

The best "solution" I have seen offered (if possible) is going our own way and breaking apart to form small communities or systems of our own at the local level. People don't like it and call it "loser talk" because they want to win and have "our guy" ruling all of America like a king. They want to see our country thrive as a super wealthy, overpowered empire with posh jobs everywhere and luxurious homes for all to live in and fancy self-driving cars for all to ride. They do not want to embrace semi-Luddism and live like the Amish. They prefer convenience, comfort and the ego boost of making America a superpower again with loads of money. Their desire for preeminence as a nation state and "not letting the Chinese win" also will make technocratic enslavement easier when they refuse to put down their toys and embrace AI (with the surveillance state slavery) instead.

Sorry about the negativity. As far as solutions go, I recommend the Corbett Report--as well as some solutions Patrick Wood once posted on his site "Technocracy Today."

I downloaded the book two days ago, and now finished reading. I judge a book by the number of significant and pithy quotes I underline in my Kindle, and this is power pasted. Far from unknown to me after years of analyzing the trends described, but this puts it all together in a tight package wrapped up in the contemporaneous and frightening light.
