How to Reboot The United States

 The United States is now an oligarchy that's surrounded by the trappings of the former republic. The federal government is 100% corrupt. Both parties are corrupt and controlled. There's no saving that thing. It's owned and infiltrated by a foreign fifth column. The state governments are in a similar situation. Ohio's a pretty corrupt basket case, unfortunately. The governor's a weirdo who's been cycled through every office in the state and federal level for some reason. The state legislature is apparently criminally corrupt, evidenced by a $60M bribery scandal involving the speaker of the house--another creepy looking dude. I'm guessing his vices don't stop a greed and gluttony.

However, since the foreign occupying power is a tiny oligarchy, it can be contained and ultimately extirpated. In the meantime, the US can reboot and reform on the local level and probably most effectively at the county level.

The Antifa Arsons in Oregon and California provide a hint how to do that. While the feds and the states won't at minimum investigate and interdict Antifa, which is funded by the fifth columnists, local authorities can stop them, and can investigate and disclose what they find. Authority can move to the county level by an act of will of the citizenry.

The same is true of the covid madness. In Ohio, the mandates of the government have no "force of law" (and who cares if they did?). The counties can just nullify the orders by an act of will of the citizenry.

To me, this seems like a viable path forward for the yeomanry population of the US. The federal government is a useless, destructive parasite. The state governments seem to be attached to that corrupted apparatus for the most part. Unfortunately, a large portion of the population is in their thrall, but really who cares about them? They'll just go along with anything anyway.

A big portion of the centralized  control is the central banking financial system. There's no need to abolish that. The more important thing is to shift behavior, and consciousness to the local level. Ideally we'd get that parasite out of our affairs, but that's probably a longer term fight.
