1. The 99% can shut down the country in a heart-beat.

2. Because we're in the right!
We were always told to respect our:

elders
parents
teachers
clergy
police
political leaders

What a diservice our parents did by teaching us that.
Our brains were crippled for a long time

Until we got whacked a few times (a few hundred times)

Let's not let that happen again!!!

4. My mother never taught me any of that
So I grew up 100% libertarian and spent the last decade completely confused by all the brainwashed authoritarians. I finally came to the conclusion that they wanted to live in a totalitarian fascist world and that they wanted their lives to be short and brutal and for the planet to die from its human infection. As you can imagine, I became quite misanthropic.

I'm only just now really beginning to learn about authoritarian personalities and how they're created and how human minds get colonized.

5. There needs to be a class in high school
I really think there needs to be a class but then...

depending on the school...

It may be white-washed unless the curriculum is carefully outlined.

It could be like evolution vs. the church

What do you call the class? How not to get screwed in life?
