The highest number murdered comes from the state's gun ownership. The Soviet Union had like 20 millions murdered - by the state, not by private citizens.

hey guys

new studies confirm that gun ownership directly equals a higher number of people murdered.

oh, and universal healthcare makes perfect sense. oh, of course - it makes perfect sense in a sortof gay-faggy sissy "let's take care of each others"-mentality.

I mean... thats faggy right? Norwegians wanting fellow Norwegians not to die. We're such fags :D

Sorry, but you should KNOW that numbers can be interpreted to make any meaning the interpreter wants to make.

Universal health care has NOT yet worked in any place it has been tried. Faggotry notwithstanding.

Agreed, then.

I will keep my weapons at the ready.

Problem is - 99.99% of all Americans won't revolt. I'd say even less than 0.01%  :(

I know. They'd rather die than admit anything is wrong.

Yeah. I'm trying.

Another comfort is patriotism - as in - the patriotism of the army.
You see this in a lot of civil wars, where the army begins to tear between loyalty to the gvt vs loyalty to the people. As large chunks begin to rip off (taking with them lots of machinery and territory, bases etc), the gvt army will likewisely shrink, and the blocks even out.
There are no guarantees of course, but there is a certain dynamic to that.

This effect was in fact hoped for in Burma, but they managed to balance it, and crack it down before the soldiers were made to do much more damage. The more damage the soldiers are made to inflict onto their own community, the less loyal will they be to those forcing them to do this.

During the Tiananmen Square riots in China, they circumvented this by sending soldiers from far away countrysides into Beijing, to face the student rebels.
A surviving soldier explained that they were pretty confused about what was going on, and not updated, being illiterate and whatnot. As they came into the capital, in collumns of trucks, they were greeted by furious civilians, cursing at them, calling them lackeys, spitting, and they quickly understood that there was something there that wasn't quite right :D

YEah, this new business model is pretty brilliantly designed and run by some slimy, clever pieces of shit. But no design is perfect.

Revolt would be, well, revolting!
