I don't know how we can stop this. Majority of Australians don't understand the implications of our constantly eroding rights because they are spoon fed bullshit by our media. When 95% of what you hear is cheering on the liberal party here, nothing can change.

- christophilus 5y agoI re-read a bunch of Ben Franklin this past year. It’s hard to overstate just how fortunate the US was to have foundation-builders who could think so clearly. After reading the founders, watching anything on CSPAN is just depressing. Warren Buffett famously quipped that he looks for companies with a system that could be successfully helmed by a monkey, because eventually, a monkey will be at the helm. I think the founding fathers thought the same way, and attempted to set up such a system. We’ll see how long it can last with monkeys at the helm.
