The direction of that fork rests solely on We The People. Unfortunately, a significant portion -- maybe even half -- of the The People are completely on board with the status quo. Whether out of pure ignorance, deluded by the propaganda mouthpieces which pass for journalism today, or a willing embrace as they see this is as somehow to their advantage.

Unless enough of The People begin to open their eyes and acknowledge the harsh reality that we are being systematically lied to, the fork to perdition is all but assured.
