		<description>"I severely doubt that marching on Washington would accomplish anything."

Do it long enough and with enough people it will disrupt operations and piss them off so much that they will give in. I don't think they are going to start arresting or shooting millions of people.</description>

		<description>Thanks for all the good comments.

@Tilon, the danger here is attracting the tin foil hat club.I'm concerned that the structure and operations of government have been continuously and disproportionately, but not systematically, influenced by the rich over centuries. This is very different from the idea that a group of wealthy mystery men are quietly pulling the strings behind all world leaders, which is a crock of shit

@John, the suggestion about More using satire is more subtle. It came strange that a man who zealously prosecuted heretics would simultaneously argue for religious tolerance. I don't believe that nobody is able to change the current stance of government, but I do believe it will take time. As education improves (perhaps if education improves) it becomes more difficult to hoodwink the public.

@Adam Pieniazek, "We have to start from scratch" is a loaded statement. it's not clear whether this is even possible, let alone whether it is a good idea.

@Roach, if you brainwash people, you have stolen the freedom of their minds. Religious organizations are very good at this. I don't see how not having children is going to help...

@H, I severely doubt that marching on Washington would accomplish anything.</description>

		<description>It's time for Americans to take their country back. March on Washington by the millions. Viva la revolution!

Until this happens, the US will continue to get worse.</description>

		<description>The rich can never steal the freedom in my mind.  Basically, think about it this way, whatever they want you to do: spend, consume, procreate.  Do exactly the opposite.</description>

		<description>A revolution does not need to be fought in the streets placing blood on the innocent.  The revolution must be fought and won only in one's own mind.  Think - it's not illegal yet.</description>
