Although I have very high ideals, I don't live in a fairy tale world of non-violence. Get real. Look around. They killed Dr. King and Bobby Kennedy. The CIA overthrew the Democratically elected Allende socialist Government. The same can happen here if a Bernie Sanders type gets Democratically elected. The Top 1% has been at war for years now: Nixon, Reagan, Bush I &II and now Trump. And Clinton and Obama were essentially no different in principle. The Top 1% has the money and the Federal Reserve in its back pocket and you are still complaining about fairness in the gold market? You need to face the Truth about that. The Top 1% has all the weapons and bombs and they will use them without hesitation to increase their profits and income. Trump has no qualms ordering strikes when his America first philosophy is placed under fire. America first means US Corporate profits first. The ends justify the means. That's the Reality here. Now, of course, there are ways to detach oneself from the reality of what is going on here and I am quite aware of how to accomplish that. Try going to the Gaza Strip and telling Israeli soldiers and the PLO that killing is wrong. They will laugh in your face. People have breaking points. Those most affected by medicare/medacaid/social security cuts, will become time bombs, threats.
