An interesting article I came across while cross referencing information in a lecture. I would recommend everyone do a quick read.

That's a great article and thank you for its relevancy here.
Two paragraphs i especially liked:
""""What is being acted out in the body politic is a reflection and expression of what is happening deep within the collective unconscious of all of humanity. As if in a dream, the boundary has dissolved between the inner and outer. The inner process of the unconscious has spilled outside of ourselves and is expressing itself through the medium of the outside world. The unconscious is non-local, meaning it is not bound by time or space, and being multi-channeled, can express itself both inwardly and/or outwardly. The unconscious is revealing itself by synchronistically configuring events in the outer world so as to give shape and form to itself. What is happening in our world IS the unconscious expressing and manifesting itself in, as, and through the forms of our world.""""
and
"""Recognizing that George Bush is a mirrored reflection of our own unconscious shadow is to realize that the evil we see George Bush acting out and being an instrument for is something that we too are capable of. Jung said, “Nobody is immune to a nationwide evil unless he is unshakably convinced of the danger of his own character being tainted by the same evil.” [xviii] [Emphasis added] Recognizing our potential, at any moment, to fall asleep and unwittingly become an agent of darkness is to become psychically immunized from falling prey to the malevolent bug of egophrenia.
Jung continued by saying, “But the immunity of the nation depends entirely upon the existence of a leading minority immune to the evil and capable of combating the powerful suggestive effect.”[xix] In recognizing the shadow being revealed as our own, we are able to connect with each other and collaboratively put our collective lucidity together to creatively embrace, express, and transmute these shadow energies to benefit the entire field."""
I'll be sharing the article with others....thanks a lot Jettins!
