The United States is the greatest country on Earth! Our founding fathers had the public's best interest in mind instead of their own! Which says a lot for those group of men! But lets take an honest look at how our election process works. We are to believe that every citizen, no matter how rich or poor they are, all count as one vote.
We have a 2 party system, the Republicans and the Democrats, but what we really have is a 2-tier system. The ultra rich and everybody else. The wealthy elite hand pick two candidates that they believe they can do business with. This is mostly done though campaign contributions. For example; even though myself and a business owner both count as one vote, if I donate $5 and the business owner donates $10k, whose voice is going to be heard? The one with the most money! I'm not totally knocking it, I'm just acknowledging it. So the real decisions, the important ones, are made before you ever get to the voting booth. Your choices usually come down to whether you want Coke or Pepsi. Most times when you get a Republican, you get a waterdowned vesion of Conservatism. And when you elect a Democrat, you get a waterdowned version of Liberalism. I'm not advocating for people not to vote! Again, just how I see it! A corporation can go in and say, pass this legislation or you won't get $100k for your next campaign. It's as simple as that! The power ultimatley, and probably always will, is in the collective (numbers)! 50% of the population can get anything done at anytime just because of their size in numbers. That's why the elite power structure is always trying to keep the average divided. Divide and Conquer!
We also have an illusion of freedom! We do have freedom in this country but the government controls a lot more than what any of us would probably think! Like our media! We have the freedom of speech but a majority of our media outlets are corporations who receive bailout money. So you're not getting the whole truth when you watch the news or tv in general. But people believe tv is real life, when in fact its the most made-up show around! I have found that you're not going to find the REAL truth in anything that is the mainstream! And am/fm talk radio, finacianl radio, etc, is also the mainstream media! The REAL truth is kept in private! Its passed on privately in family only, from generation to generation. So the ones who know the REAL truth can take advantage of the ones who don't know it! Just like a job. If you're a plumber, you don't train the new person to know everything! If you did, you'd lose your own value. The same here! Talk radio is a step in the right direction since you get to hear real people and their problems calling in. The government also controls churches though their tax exempt status. A church can be threaten that if they say the wrong things, their tax exempt status could be pulled away. Even though it's somewhat a rigged system, get informed, and vote for who you think is best!
