18. Despite my post above
I really believe that people are frustrated. I just think they are also feeling powerless, and they are being expertly pacified or confused to inaction.

Sometimes I even wonder if they notice the irony when commercials for McDonald's, Nutrisystem, Pizza Hut, and Lipitor are run back-to-back.

But somebody is going to come along that will capture people's imaginations and organize them.

There are nonviolent and decisive actions that can be taken to get the attention of the ruling class.

It has to happen, but it's likely going to take awhile.

Be patient, but be preparing while you are being patient.
