Yeah, I just wrote a post about that Rand Paul guy and how he's already changed his stripes to get elected.

But, in deference to him, you HAVE to do that in OUR system.

Guys that tell the truth all the time AREN'T going to get elected.

That's why the Chinese have us BEAT everyway from Sunday.

If the Chinese ever get FULL democracy they'll get get their lunch handed to them.

Which is why I think that the evolutionary progression of world power will eventually lead to something akin to the current Chinese model, with a good touch of the "Singapore" influence.

Which means EVERYBODY will be under surveillance. In 100 years Nobody will be able to make a move without it being categorized.

And it WON'T be like they portray in the movies where a small band of intrepid "outsiders" are able to fight the system. There won't BE any outsiders.
