Says a person that's independently wealthy.....

See, what you don't seem to grasp is all of these rich Democrat liberals playbook....

They make these declarative statements(as you do) while hiding their true intentions....and to watch a fabulously wealthy liberal Democrat disavow the very vehicle that allowed him so is.....as ludicrous and laughable as can be.

These liberals are simply getting ahead of the game and hoping that when communism takes hold.....they won't be shot first.

After all......they are the very essence of hate and jealousy of the left(You). They(rich liberals) realize their wealth can be swept away at the instant point of a gun.

No? You are either obtuse or truly inane and don't pay attention. Again, wealth and prosperity and freedom are the first to go in any communist system.....this has been proven and historically documented for hundreds of years.....to the count of 100's of millions of murders: China, Russia et all......

It’s tricky because a democracy is self-government. If the average person doesn’t care then of course democracy atrophies. That’s what’s really happening. We have to care as average people or business interests begin to call the shots and we live in their shadow. Democracy is ours to lose.

"Average people?" Do you see yourself as one of the elites whose burden in life is to run things for the rest of us?

its true alot of americans dont vote let alone protest. you had what was called "excess democracy" in the 1960s and the business class began a counter attack beginning in the neo liberal era which started in the mid 1970s , 1980

Do you like taking orders from a government that has the power to imprison you, to take away your freedoms, even your life?

Democracy is tyranny of the majority.
