The Repugnicans have convinced half of America that a Muslim-socialist - and, coincidentally, black - usurper has stolen the Presidency and is intent upon the destruction of America.
The Demoncrats are convinced of something equally irrational - I'm not sure what. Neither party can be blamed individually, however. For if one looks at their actions instead of their words, they both appear to be the enemy within.
As long as we fight among ourselves over whether the severe, real and observable climate change is natural or anthropogenic, and whether it presages global warming or a new ice age;
As long as half of us argue that the economy is actually improving and the way to continue to improve it is to stop taxing the only people who can afford to pay taxes;
As long as we leave no child behind and thereby reduce the norm for education to teaching the answers and not the lessons;
As long as people who rob banks serve 25 years in prison, but banks which rob people are given tax dollars and exempted from the laws which govern the citizenry;
As long as more people are killed or injured annually by falls and table saws - and killed in hospitals from simple medical mistakes but that the root cause of death is firearms and that the Constitution is 'just a piece of paper';
As long as we fight other people's civil wars, which neither side ever wins but both sides end up hating us - and, instead, fighting the 'war on terror' and 'the war on drugs' against American citizens instead of working for the best interests and wishes of the American citizens who elected the people who make these decisions;
As long as we elect and pay politicians who work for themselves and their corporate sponsors and against us in the favor of special interests (read 'big money') and do so openly and blatantly for the most part;
As long as we are referred to by the current President - and most recent previous Presidents as "The American People"- instead of "US", because they think they are no longer part of "US";
Until we understand that there is something fundamentally wrong with a country which requires its unemployed citizens to purchase health insurance or face midnight raids and be tossed into debtor's prison by the IRS and THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION - but regards as unconstitutional that anyone should have to prove their citizenship;
Until we man-up, stand up, smarten up, get together, and COLLECTIVELY have a million-man-march on Washington with our rifles, nothing will be done.
I can go on. I can be specific - but then I will be accused of treason because I have the temerity to demand that the US government and ALL of its elected, appointed and SWORN officials honor and obey their oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic or they will be and should be and, according to the Constitution, MUST be removed and replaced by any means necessary, your question will never be answered but by a few people like me.
My solution is simple. Everyone with an ounce of sense must register as 'Independent' and leave the established criminal political parties to wilt on the vine. Once people begin to vote for results rather than lies, things must change. If, by then, there is anything left to change.
I’m sick and tired of these gloom and doom articles without telling us how to fight/prevent this.
Can anyone tell us how we can collectively fight this wall street fiasco?? What can we do to stop this economic chaos??

Yes, but the key concept here is 'collectively'.
