Tiny factions especially billionaires already own enough of the US government. The corruption is increasing and the chances for any sort of reform from within are diminishing to near zero. John McCain's failure to achieve campaign finance reform was the canary in the coal mine that no reform from within is possible because the property party (backers of D and R) won't allow it. As such the political operating system is hacked irrevocably. It will have to be displaced and reset by a nonviolent popular uprising.

"displaced and reset by a nonviolent popular uprising" none of these words are particularly comforting... tough times are a-coming.

> It will have to be displaced and reset by a nonviolent popular uprising. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. What do you think the newest pet project of Musk is about? I'm talking of his America's Party initiative - an obvious attempt to direct any popular uprising, be it nonviolent or otherwise, into he same old river bed. When you say "popular" you have to take into account who decides what's popular these days and why billionaires are tripping all over themselves to get equipped with "social" media of their own.
