However, once a Deep State situation has taken over, only a revolution or a dictatorship can turn it around, and probably only in a small country.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe you\u2019re thinking you should get behind somebody like Ron Paul (I didn\u2019t say Rand Paul), should such a person materialize. That would be futile.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what would happen in the totally impossible scenario that this person was elected and tried to act like a Lee Kuan Yew or an Augusto Pinochet against the Deep State:<\/p>\n<p>First, there would be a \u201csit-down\u201d with the top dogs of the Praetorian agencies and a bunch of Pentagon officers to explain the way things work.<\/p>\n<p>Then, should he survive, he would be impeached by the running dogs of Congress.<\/p>\n<p>Then, should he survive, whipped dog Americans would revolt at the prospect of having their doggy dishes broken.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, your fellow Americans not only elected Obama, but re-elected him. Do you expect they\u2019ll be more rational as the Greater Depression deepens? Maybe you think the police and the military will somehow help. Forget it\u2026they\u2019re part of the problem. They\u2019re here to <em>protect and serve<\/em> their colleagues first, then their employer (the State), and only then the public. But the whipped dog likes to parrot: \u201cThank you for your service.\u201d Which is further proof that there\u2019s no hope.<\/p>\n<p>So what should you do, based on all this? For one thing, don\u2019t waste your time and money trying to change the course of history. Trying to stop the little snowball rolling down the mountainside might have worked many decades ago, but now it\u2019s turned into a gigantic avalanche that\u2019s going to smash the village at the bottom of the valley.
