What Can We the People Do?

In order to prevent further descent into tyranny, We the People must amend our Constitution. We must win the battle of the Republic, because, otherwise, we may lose the battle of democracy.

“The proletariat [lazy, tax-eating, non-disabled, government-dependents] will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degree, all capital [property] from the bourgeoisie [laboring, tax-paying middle class and entrepreneurs], to centralize all instruments of production in the hands of the state [self-serving Marxist Government]… Of course, in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of despotic inroads on the rights of property… And the abolition of this state of things is called by the bourgeois, abolition of individuality and freedom! And rightly so. The abolition of bourgeois [middle class] individuality, bourgeois independence, and bourgeois freedom is undoubtedly aimed at… We have seen above that the first step in the revolution by the [non] working class is to raise the proletariat to the position of ruling class to win the battle of democracy.” –Karl Marx

Here is an essay on state nullification of un-Constitutional laws and state-sponsored Constitutional amendment.

Here is an essay on Marxism with a proposed Constitutional amendment at the end – which is now updated below.
