and then it will probably be too late. That is what I've felt. But on the other hand, my personal strategy is to start building alternatives to our current deeply troubled and sick system. I agree that our population has been all but zombified. But when it comes down to basic day to day survival and masses of folks are experiencing this - I do have some respect for the human consciousness to become aware of its survival needs. So mass civil disobedience will likely occur at that point.

We need to:

1. Educate those who will listen.
2. Build alternatives - I'm learning to garden this year. My life doesn't depend on it now but ...
3. Form sub communities of like minding people who recognize the sickness we are fighting.
