    They have to have nothing, it very little to lose. That’s basically how every revolution begins. I would say the one benifit of Trump over the last decade or so is that there are zero enforcement of any laws or regulations being done inside politics. It doesn’t matter what your party is, who you vote for, their goal is to get as rich as possible and have you pay for it.

    More than half of Congress isn’t even in session for voting. Not that it matters, their party tells them how to vote, or else. Your paying to fly them home and back to DC every weekend so close to 52 round trip flights a year, so they can attend Congress sessions they don’t go to anyways, then you get to pay for their office and apartment in DC, all their staff that actually do why real work.

    I pray in my lifetime people get pushed far enough to actually get off their fat asses and actually do something. Rather than just sign petitions that don’t matter, and make comments on FB. “I’m so angry about xyz!” But you know not angry enough to actually do anything.
