HUH? POLITICAL SCIENCE?

WHAT IN HELL IS SCIENTIFIC
ABOUT POLITICS?

WHAT A MISNOMER!





Democracy or Corporatism ?


Tom Hyland - (C) - 8/28/16


I'm confused, perhaps some kind reader can help me out?

A whole bunch of incongruous thoughts are rambling in my head.

First of all, most Americans think we live in a Democracy.
But, we Do Not! We live in a Republic.

In Ancient Greece, a True Democracy,
Every Citizen voted on every Law.

In a Republic, or Representative Democracy,
Representatives do All the Voting on Laws.

OOOPS!
HERE LIES THE RUB!

We elect 'so-called' Representatives who do Not Represent Us!
Once Elected, they only have One Goal ...
Getting Re-Elected! Over, and Over, and Over!

And just How do they Do That?
By Accepting Money ( Contributions ) from Lobbyists ...
Special Interest Groups, and Corporations!

Enter ... Corporatism ...

An Alignment Between Big Business and Political Power,
At the Expense of the Population!

Many believe This is just a new Fancy name for ...
FASCISM !


The Liberals Blame It on the Conservatives,
And Vice Versa.

The Democrats Blame It on the Republicans,
And Vice Versa.

My best Guess is that since the end of WWII ...
It has taken 70 Years to Screw Up America !

Successive Administrations, No matter Which Party ...
Congress - Both The Senate and The House ... 535
And The Supreme Court Justices ... 9

535 + 9 = 544 Out of 300,000,000
That's .00000181 ...

PASS ALL THE LAWS !
TELL US TO TIGHTEN OUR BELTS !
AND GIVE THEMSELVES RAISES !

PLUS THE BEST DAMNED RETIREMENT PLANS !
PLUS THE BEST DAMNED HEALTHCARE PLANS !

THEY ARE THE "UPPER-CRUST "
THEY PROMULGATE THE "STATUS QUO"

Corporations - Banks - Wall Street ...
THEY CONTROL EVERYTHING ...
INCLUDING CONGRESS !


"A Nation, Of the People, By the People, For The People"
IS DEAD ... AND LONG GONE!

WE THE "SHEEPLE"

Are Either Too Busy, Too Lazy, or Too Stupid ...
To Wake Up and Stop This Insanity !


God Bless the Miniscule Minority Up Top ...
Who have Systematically Ruined The Middle Class ...
Ruined America ...

And Caused The Economic Inequality Huge Gap !

Democracy ?

I DON'T THINK SO !!!


OLIGARCHY ...

THAT IS WHAT OUR COUNTRY IS NOW!

A HANDFUL OF RICH AND POWERFUL SOB's...

DICTATING TO THE MASSES !


NOVEMBER 8TH IS RAPIDLY APPROACHING ...
71 DAYS AWAY NOW ...


WHICH LYING, RICH "CROOK" WILL YOU VOTE FOR ???


(C) - TKH.

You are right with most of your concerns. But there is something we can do. Our fellow author, Ed Phillips, has written very clear articles on what we can and should do.

We can do our banking with credit unions and not large corporate banks. If we invest, we should only do so in small, emerging companies and not in the blue-chip corporations. We should also not shop at the large monopolistic corporations like Walmart, Amazon, etc. Buy outlandish brand names for vanity. Eat fast food rather than buying fresh food and cooking it. Support young, uncorrupted candidates for office. Unfortunately, while many Americans complain like you and then go about bad behavior like "sheeple," we deserve what we get.

A Guide to Chinese Affairs by Robert Liu

This is a political treatise that deals with the China issue from a completely new perspective. Disparaging as he may sound, from page to page, toward "the old system" and the Communist Party's various wiles, the author demonstrates his mysteriously
