Populist Reform of the Democratic Party

In despotic countries around the world, police states are used to maintain order in the face of institutional corruption and injustice.

It is exactly the environment that sends 100,000s of jobs a year to China, India. These states know how to keep their population in check through the most brutal means possible.

Now, with our Stazi like surveillence state and militarized police and vast network of police and paramilitary agencies, the US has become the same.

Eventually, the arrogance of the political class - i.e. our douchebags in Congress and the White House - become so confident in the police state that they operate, with impunity, 100% solely in their own best interests - literally, yes literally, raping and pillaging the nation they are entrusted to serve.

Police are called heroes for abusing and/or killing thousands of innocent people or those accused of petty crime. Every soldier is now called a hero for nothing more than putting on a uniform. The government pumps up our police state with massive budgets hoping to buy their favor and it is working like a charm. So far.

However, while busy building their own fortunes, the ruling class ignores the growing dissent of the lower classes. Eventually, people have lost so much, they have nothing more to lose. Even death becomes preferable to a lifetime of poverty and injustice at the hands of a cruel and corrupt government.

History has proven, without any contradiction, a massive disparity of wealth and justice, such as we are experiencing right now, will result in violence. Note that a positive outcome from an uprising is far from certain. It could end up making things worse should the ruling class prevail. But at some point, a nation decides it has had enough and when pressed up against an indifferent political class, decides to act on its own.

It is just a matter of when.

TPP could be the tipping point as it will result in the next great recession, saved from a great depression only by the taxes of workers whose jobs will be permanently lost to Asia.
