Rec if you agree

We have an admittedly politically and corporately biased Supreme Court that is not the least bit concerned with YOUR interpretation of the Constitution.

of framing laws to support their own opinions. They are incapable of framing their opinions
to support the law. This is part of the sociopathic character. And they cannot change.

Hence, as long as there are too many sociopaths in high positions, sooner or later there
will be conflicts and wars. They can't help it. Our system can stand a few of them in high
places, but not more without getting into repeated chaos and crises. And this is exactly
what is happening right now. Our nation is being ruined by them right before our eyes.

SOCIOPATHS ARE THE PROBLEM -- WORLDWIDE. They always have been, since the
dawn of history.

That's why I'm not recing this. They don't respect the Constitution at all. It's about dogma and ideology.
