America Is Dead!

You think that’s democracy you’re tasting? Wrong. While you were sleeping, they secretly replaced your democracy with Oligarchy. That super-rich, sweet tasting form of government that fattens the pockets a select few in power while the masses get to starve on empty promises and the tasty calories of false hope. You better like eating air, because the super-rich powers-that-be would gladly watch you starve to death as they take the last crumpled dollar from your wallet. 

If the preceding dose of reality was too much for you, perhaps you can digest the true fate of American politics with former President Jimmy Carter’s eloquent words.

The super-rich have been raping this country for a long time.  It’s no surprise. That’s what the rich have always done. The fact that most people don’t do anything about it is even more disturbing. Seriously, the transformation from republic democracy to oligarchy is blatant, pervasive, and painfully obvious. All you have to do is open your eyes.

This disgusting perversion of American ideals has bothered me for a long time. The problem is, it doesn’t really bother most of the sheeple in this country. If it did, more people would fight back. I guess they like being indentured servants to the ultra-super-rich.  It sucks that so many people’s apathy negatively affects me. Hell I did my part. I spent 5 long years on a gray Navy boat to defend freedom and democracy, not apathy. And I certainly didn’t protect oligarchy, subservience, avarice and deceit.

But that’s the way it is these days. The rich rule, corporations are people, and the common man is considered nothing more than scum under the elite’s boot. Something to be scraped off and discarded. I guess the masses like to be slaves. Maybe we should wake up.
