The quality of these incidents is that they are far and wide in an enormous nation. Were it not for the Internet none of it would be known.
While many are asking for someone to tell them where to sign up for the revolution, most are asking why they moved Survivor from one time slot to the other.
The people know what is happening. They just choose not to be affected. The look at what they have, how they live, and what would happen if they were found to be associated with known [b]Domestic Terrorists.
They choose a life in serfdom, afraid of the knock on the door, or the flashing light in the mirror. the choose it over no job, no food, and no way to improve their lot.
When this nation falls a little lower they will become more receptive to doing their duty, but not till they have to.[/b]
Fifty percent of the people will never resist.
Why?
Because they are slaves of the beast.
They depend on the government for their food, housing and medical care. Do you think they will bite the hand that feeds them?
Millions more depend on the government for their business contracts or job. Do you think they will risk losing their paycheck, insurance and retirement benefits over a little thing like freedom?
And, millions depend on the government for their socialist security check. Do you think they will risk losing their only source of income?
No. These people will do what they're told so long as the benefits keep rolling in. If something happens to those benefits, they will complain, protest, riot and demand that their master does something to take care of them.
Only the few who are free and independent of the system will resist.
