From Robert Reich here:
"Permit me an impertinent question (or three).
"Suppose a small group of extremely wealthy people sought to
systematically destroy the U.S. government by (1) finding and
bankrolling new candidates pledged to shrinking and dismembering it; (2)
intimidating or bribing many current senators and representatives to
block all proposed legislation, prevent the appointment of presidential
nominees, eliminate funds to implement and enforce laws, and threaten to
default on the nation's debt; (3) taking over state governments in
order to redistrict, gerrymander, require voter IDs, purge voter rolls,
and otherwise suppress the votes of the majority in federal elections;
(4) running a vast PR campaign designed to convince the American public
of certain big lies, such as climate change is a hoax, and (5) buying up
the media so the public cannot know the truth.
"Would you call this treason?If not, what would you call it? And what would you do about it?"
