It’s like this country is out of it’s mind. We won’t protect ourselves against a deadly disease, or poverty, or homelessness, or hunger, or all manner of unnecessary suffering, but we will protect ourselves against an enemy that has not appeared yet.

The US government in both parties is captured. It was captured a very, very, very long time ago. Positive leadership is prevented by the financiers and oligarchs control of the party system. The party only responds to the needs of this oligarchy.

Lincoln knew that two systems contended for world preeminence, the "American System" vs the predatory British Crown & bankers' system. Know thy enemy, America. Thy enemy is the financial oligarchy which has captured Congress.
