I was sitting in a local not-so-fast-food burger restaurant when 4 large, black, non-descript passenger vans pulled into the parking lot. Some older white men got out ahead of about 40 young Mexican men who disembarked and were lined up outside the building. One of the older guys, who were all wearing dark blue and polo shirts with what looked like some sort of small law enforcement logo on the breast, came into the building first. As the young guys entered and walked past him, he was telling them all to "just say number 3 combo, say number 3 combo..." It was the cheapest thing on the menu that wasn't a child's meal. It was evident they were being coached because they didn't know English. They all looked apprehensive and many were wearing the same shorts, sandals, and socks, but different shirts. All looked to be older teens to early twenties. This happened in my small red town, coming soon to a theater near you. All the patrons just sat and watched silently in disbelief. Our government is not working for us, they are working against us.

Actually it will work out better if we do organically. That way they cannot blame Trump; and we don't need him. Spread the word and 'just stop participating'. We could use a catchy hashtag to get it rolling. Maybe make some t-shirts with said hashtag to fund marketing campaigns. Shop local and barter with neighbors during the transition. The fraudulent government, banksters, big corporations, big medical, big ed will just cease to exist. Literally voting with our wallet. But yes, we need numbers.
