I don't get it - why do a lot of people remain in abusive relationships???

[I am me, I am free]

I'm referring to their relationship with the Federal govt., by now well established to be a gangster government.

As only one example -

Hey, IAMIAF:

I have an MA in Counseling Psychology and I would treat this as any other abusive relationship.

First, the abused person has to recognize he/she is in an abusive relationship. I see this as highly unlikely. I will expand upon this below.

Second, when a person perceives him/herself in an abusive relationship, STATISTICALLY it takes 6.3 times before the abused person SUCCESSFULLY leaves for good.

It takes a lot of strength to leave an abusive relationship for good. The main reason is that many abused people DO NOT see themselves as being independent enough to survive on their own. So they stick with the known versus the unknown.

To expand upon the first point, why people will not leave the gov't. Most people simply want the opportunity to have a decent job to meet their needs, have a vacation/holiday once a year and not have too much gov't interference. Those that run the gov't know this, I am sure. If the gov't pushes too far, it is for a reason - they want the upset. Most people are NOT concerned with the gov't. Oh, they like to talk about it and complain, but other than voting and protesting from time to time, what are they really going to do. They have been dumbed down and do NOT understand their legal status, i.e. subjects of the US gov't.

The short of it, as long as people can buy the toys they want in life, there will be little problems.

This question is like asking the guy who has been forced to the ground with a gun to his head while being held up for his wallet "why are you remaining in this abusive relationship"? The answer is because if he attempts to get out, he will be killed.
