I do not understand how it is that the majority of Americans understand that their government is lying, stealing, torturing and killing in their name, and yet few people act on their convictions. They continue to pay taxes, they continue to support the corrupt system, they continue to deploy to Iraq, and they allow fraudulent elections repeatedly.

In my view, the only peaceful way to end this tyranny is if all the states secede from the US. We alleviate ourselves from federal debt, localize the economies, and get rid of federal control. No more Patriot Act, no more dismantling of habeas corpus, and no more bodies in Iraq. Yes, some of the welfare states will be forced to actually contribute to their own welfare. No more farm subsidies, no more handouts. If I want to help someone, it is my choice. The states can ally themselves regionally (which seems much more efficient given our shared utilities and resources) or not. It's all about local control. Sure, there would be a few horror stories along the way, but it's still better than citizen internment camps.

At present, we are conditioned to demand the government solve our problems. With bailout after bailout, it's easy to understand why the masses aren't worried. The Knight in Shining Armor is at the gates of the fortress because Hollywood tells us it is so.
