23. The system is calcified; change has become impossible

Entrenched minority rule has a headlock on the system. And SCOTUS keeps it locked.
Our system worked when honorable people ran it. Now, the honorable people are gone, priced out of the system.
The media are dead and gone except late-night comedians, who provide the only actual TV news left.
Legislators work for their billionaire constituents, tossing crumbs to the masses.
And signs and marches won't destroy this fascism. Only real revolution or a catastrophic catharsis can.
