An outside chance of a change is better than no chance. There needs to be more anger and activism on the part US citizens and a greater push to elect more enough senators as the first part to proper reform... If people in the US don't care enough, then the US and it's institutions are pretty much already done for... just a matter of when.
I don't understand why social spending is so scary for Americans and funding of the magnitudes more spent on the military, and welfare for corporate rich seem to be perfectly acceptable?

It's a hostage situation in some ways. But lots of jobs because of those things. People would rather be employed in a corrupt society than jobless in a "straight" society.
