I hear you and want to be on your side during the revolution. I just don't want a revolution. Conditions are bad right now but violent revolt is a coin flip. The people who will suffer most are the most vulnerable. The children that witness it will suffer for it their entire lives. If we did win, the only faint glimmer of hope will be future generations don't squander it like their fathers and their fathers fathers and their fathers fathers fathers....

I'm sorry my compassion cripples me from making the extreme but arguably understandable choice of uprising.
