There is no question but that the U.S. government is and has been for a number of years, totally owned and controlled by nefarious big business interests -- led by the MIC. The entire cabal is based on the fact that TV advertising costs big bucks -- too big for candidates to compete by constituent funding alone.
Want to see how they've done?
Our economy is descending into chaos with the middle class being torn to bits at an ever-accelerating rate by corporations who want it ALL.
Our military -- paid mercenaries who volunteered for pay and benefits to kill when and exactly as directed by their bosses -- who haven't won a single war since WWII. We have close to 1,000 overseas bases and an annual budget that greatly exceeds the total military expenditure of all the industrialized nations of the world.
Our bridges, sewers, water reservoirs,tunnels, roadways, rail lines, etc. are in ill repair and rapidly approaching failure.
Our educational system graduates students unable to compete in math, science, engineering, etc., with the school systems of western Europe, Eastern Europe, Asia or India. And our educational budget per student is the highest in the world.
We rank 27th or 30th in healthcare quality among developed nations, and our budget for healthcare is the highest per patient of any system in the modern world.
Our minimum wages are so low that enormously profitable but unethical corporations like McDonald's refuse to pay living wages, but do provide assistance to their employees who seek State or Federal poverty aid.
Our environment is becoming untenable due to pollution.
The destruction of our middle-class is accelerating at precisely the same rate that our impoverished numbers are growing.
We have a dysfunctional government comprised of elected officials who cannot or will not deal with each other.
Daily revelations expose the folly, wastefulness, and arrogance of our security agencies, whose actions threaten our people and our national allies.
We have abrogated our Constitution in regard to secret arrests, torture, imprisonment and executions.
And somehow, we find ourselves still surrounded by idiots who want to shout that we're the greatest free nation in the world.
Reality.
