"Our country"

The past few election cycles, I keep hearing the same phrase, " We need to take back our country".
Who the hell is WE and when and how did you lose "your country"?
Did you buy it out from under everyone else? Did someone steal "YOUR" country? I seem to remember somewhere along the way that part of this country belongs to me and everyone else I know. Since when did you get sole ownership?
By my recollection, if you want to "take back YOUR country,
you're going to (#1) fight a hell of a lot of people you think stole it from you or (#2) you can fight the SOB's that actually stole it from you, the 1%ers. The corporations (who pay very little, if not 0 taxes) or the billionaires who own congress and get all the tax breaks. (See tax scam of upwards of 2 trillion dollars in 2017). It's your choice, but I think your odds are better if you wise up, rise up, and stand together against the 1%ers.
Attacking your neighbors and others you don't even know will get you nowhere except broke, bankrupt, hated or dead. Besides, how's the way you are doing it now working for you? Your families are fighting each other over stupid ideological differences, you're blocking former friends  of many years because someone offended your sensitivities, and you spend hour after hour on social media bitching about perceived slights by people you don't even know, just to feel good about yourself. Makes no sense, does it?
I may be an idealist, but I do believe that we can right this ship by working together, not against each other.
By doing so, you steal their power, and without that power, THEY ARE NOTHING BUT PITIFUL WEAKLINGS!
KICK THESE MONEY-GRUBBING BASTARDS TO THE CURB BY VOTING THEM OUT!
May peace be within you, and may you smile at the next person you think slighted you!
