Having experienced pan-insanity and the flouting of the Canadian Charter of Rights, I don't put my trust in pieces of paper. Pragmatism before idealism.

If Americans are anticipating the collapse of the empire, that suggests to me the union is about to break up into regions. Regionalism and localism before exceptionalism.

As Alex Jones put it, "The answer to '1984' is '1776.'" Great points likening DC to King George. The Founding generation had much higher standards and much lower tolerance for bullshit than we do today. If Joe Brandon had pulled half the criminal stunts 200 years ago that he does today, getting voted out of office at the end of his first term would have been the least of his worries.
