Or about Dems vs GOP...both are equally guilty

If these two views can coalesce and bring true change to the political landscape, we could see a renewal of the United States. Unfortunately, the established Democratic/Republican hegemony really will work to scatter and dilute any who bring this message forward.

This is no longer the free society that we have been lead to believe it is. I heard something the other day that made me think. Our government is supposed to derive its power from the consent of the governed. If I can't withdraw my consent, then it isn't consent.

LOL...you can withdraw your consent but that doesn't mean others will or have as well. You consent and dissent is available through your right to vote. The governed isn't just you, not until you find that one man hilltop of yours.

I'm through talking to you. If the Democrats came and burned down your house, you'd find a way to justify it in your mind. You're just a party hack. There are others that can be saved from the brainwashing. You're simply a lost cause.

I guess the American people all consent to the US government borrowing money from China to give to Hamas and to Pakistan?

Nah, I'd shoot them dead on the spot then find a way to justify my action to the police.

Yes they do, collectively the American people consent to everything America does. Those who vote and those who don't vote are culpable for the actions of America. To think otherwise if foolish.

Sadly, I have to agree with Saden on this point.

IF and most likely when, the US population ever stops giving tacit consent to the government it would be through a violent uprising. As an example of tacit consent, if you drive a car, you have tacitly acknowledged the government's right to create laws enabling the safe conduct of interstate travel. Likewise, if you use dollars, you are acknowledging that the federal government has the right to use those same dollars. The high lack of voter turnout actually also represents the basic consent for this government.

If it was not consented to by a majority of non-voters we would see rebellions and uprisings. Most US citizens do accept the Federal and State government, even though most also have been spoon fed a whole ton of manure about the reality of how our government works. I think a lot of non-voters are people like me, who accept the fundamental concept of our government, but can't find one d*** person worth voting for, at least from the republican and democratic hegemony.
