RE POLITICAL REFORM NOT

There are three major dimensions, now missing from the current US situation, which will prevent a reasoned reform toward a commonwealth, economic nationalism, or economic autarky, which almost all Americans, except perhaps the very rich ones, have needed for decades now.

The very rich ones do not realize it, but they need this now unavailable major reform as much or more than the average ones, because of the backlash to come, against the very rich, and others, from the average, from poor Americans, and from young Americans, against very rich ones and against old ones. It will not be a reasoned reform movement.

These three things are:
1. The fact that Americans have been talked, propagandized, dumbed out of, and developed out of, economic nationalism as a goal for the last 60 years.

2. Americans have largely off shored most of their production capacity which would have made renewed economic nationalism feasible.

3. Americans are tied, propagandistically and spiritually, and dumbed down toward their existing political structures, federal, state, and local, in such ways as to make reasoned reforms of these very complex political structures, guided by an informed middle class, not possible.
