"Government is instituted for the common good; for the
protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for
profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of
men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and
indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or
totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and
happiness require it."
Statement by
John Adams (Second President of
the Republic of the United States of America).

RE: Your
statement "My own field is psychology, ...":
Why is it that the summation of such political, legal, and corporate corruption appears to have already crossed some invisible line, and taken on a "life of its own": so that it now looks to many (including myself) as though the worsening situation may in fact be impossible to ever reverse?
Where did humanity go wrong?
Is there anything humanity can now do -- at this late stage -- which might at least stall this threatening trend significantly, or, much better still, reverse it?
