The problems in America are based on choices that powerful people are making. They have accrued wealth and power that they will never willingly relinquish. They will never accept laws, reforms, or dissolution of institutions that support their power. The FBI is their personal Gestapo. The media is their personal propaganda arm. Congress is bought and paid for. The medical system controls and enslaves most of us. Electronic voting lends legitimacy to their representatives, and a compliant judiciary rubber stamps their crimes. The only thing that will fix America’s problems is to rid ourselves of the people that are causing them. But we have to consider the possibility that what replaces them may be yet worse. So we muddle through….hoping that our oligarchy will reform itself. Or at least leave us alone.
I appreciate all the areas in which are in agreement, and I wonder if the somewhat heated comments about me / Claremont regarding vaccines are a bit unjustified. We've hardly ignored the issue.
Ironically, I'm writing a long review/essay right now on a slew of COVID-related books, including Kheriaty's.

Thanks for the long and thoughtful analysis.
