Resorting to lame sarcasm does not prove a point nor engage in honest dialogue. The same dishonest nonsense could be used to ridicule your fear of Trump. I don't think that sort of fear justifies avoiding other dangers to the "democracy" that you think is so essential to the future of your children. Are you afraid of talking about what has been an obvious hiding in plain sight of the gradual degradation of liberty imposed on us by the growing power granted to, and stolen by, various central government agencies and by the oligarchical relationship they have with corporations and the media?

You're afraid of Trump. Are you afraid to discuss the dangers of the growing power of our intelligence and security agencies, or the already powerful but still expanding so of our massive regulatory state, or the symbiosis between those things and large corporations along with the capture of corporate media including the powerful internet platforms?

Or is that oligarchic, fascistic government, corporate, and media complex a good model for the democratic future of your children? It seems to me that you may very well think it is. You have expressed a liking for an uninhibited central government that regulates the well being of society. And, though you profess an insistence that the
various regulators (politicians, policing and intelligence personnel, corporate leaders, and legacy and social media press) all have whatever it is that you think is good, honest character, you don't mind if they resort to lies, endless phony investigations and character assassinations.

Do you really believe that such an amalgamation of control over the life of your children is really protecting their freedom? Or will restore their "middle class" which you think is so important--rather than being one of the major causes of its disappearance?
