To me, the death knell was complete in November 2021 when the Virginia gubornatorial election could not self-correct the bad path American democracy is taking.

I need to re-write Chapter 6 of my book, which will explain how to build the TDG during a period of increased oligarchy.

And that oligarchy may already here. The Biden Adimistration seems impotent to pass legisilation that would benefit many Americans.
