    Well yeah… The electoral college consistently lets a minority opinion override the majority, so of course a majority want it done.

    Problem is that minority that gets their way today aren’t going to yield if they can help it.

        What they tell you that it is -vs- what it actually is.

        The political and economic system hides everything from us so that all we see is the individual and all these fragmented pieces – and our education only reaffirms this viewpoint. It isn’t until you educate yourself as a worker and understand the system from a class perspective (Marx) that you can begin see it in its totality for what it really is.
