How do we change the corrupt government??? Suggestions please.

To do so successfully we need to wake up a large number of the people. Far to few people have their eyes open.

Sorry to throw cold water on a hot topic but 90% of the suggestions made so far involve changes the GOVERNMENT would have to institute. Clean elections, term limits .... does anybody really think they're going to do any of that @#$$?

My suggestion? Stop cooperating. Stop bending over for laws that are nothing but public policy.

color of law n. the appearance of an act being performed based upon legal right or enforcement of statute, when in reality no such right exists.

The appearance of a legal right.

The act of a state officer, regardless of whether or not the act is within the limits of his or her authority, is considered an act under color of law if the officer purports to be conducting himself or herself in the course of official duties.

You cannot change the government. You cannot change a single CEO or banker or UN official. You can only change yourself. Period.

If this is true, then why do so many Banks, Corporations and other institutions run to the government for change for themselves. How do we make them take your advice as well?

You cannot change anyone else. ......... Period. Stop. Read that again. Again.

You only control you. You cannot convince anyone else of anything.

Put your own oxygen mask on first. Right?

To wake yourself up you have to first start by stopping the incoming programming.

Where does incoming programming come from? You know the answer.

TV
Church
Government
Radio
Political partisan media (Fox, NPR, Rush, Rachel, whatever)

You have to pull an Office Space on your TV. take it down and destroy it. If you won't do that, you remain a slavesheep.

If you are waiting for others to change and fix the world around you so you can just follow along and enjoy the ride - keep waiting.
