America’s Political System Is Bankrupt
You are being deceived. America’s political system is bankrupt. It has been taken over and maliciously subverted for personal gain by dishonest men and women. The form of government our founding fathers established had only one critical flaw and it is fatal – there was no mechanism to protect it/us against villainous exploits of pernicious calumniators and Erebusic marplots whose sole motivations have always been self-serving.
I spoke recently about Karl Rove. He is an elapid that has taken on bi-pedal ability and human characteristics. Rove has made it his duty to work from the shadows to stymie the efforts of President Trump, and yet in the past five days I have received no fewer than 25 emails from him asking for money to help President Trump.
Why does he need money to help President Trump when he’s on FoxNews with his silly white board telling America that Bernie Sanders can/will beat President Trump, because Sanders stays on his talking points and because Sanders has the experience of having run before. If that is all it takes why didn’t Jeb Bush beat President Trump? But I digress.
But specific to Sanders he is an unambiguous example of just how corrupt America’s political system is and how gullible the public has become.
This past mid-April, Sanders held a town-hall gathering in Bethlehem, PA. A person familiar to me through a long time good friend had submitted a question that was approved and was supposed to be asked of Sanders. The question however, was never asked because the FoxNews camera harlots weren’t there to share the will of the people vis-a`-vis the public’s questions, they were there to garner attention for themselves.
As loathsome as that was, their actions were marginally better than Sanders. He was there amidst great fanfare. The town-hall gathering had been advertised saying he was there to answer questions and show why he was the person to run the country.
If Sanders is such a great candidate and so capable, why was he not able to answer random questions? All questions had to be submitted in advance, out of which a small number of them would be asked. And before we get too harsh with Sanders, let me point out that all of the congressional squatters do the same thing.
Do you understand what that means? It means that the town-hall gatherings are staged events, they are dishonest, they are rigged events designed to make people like Sanders look good, not to have them truthfully answer questions that are important to the voters.
Politicians are cleverly disconnected from We the People. How many times have you personally called or written your elected official expressing concern or frustration about one thing and received a response back that was completely about something else? How many times have you called and left a message and never received a call back or notice that your call was even received?
Yes it is true that there are some who you can get in touch with, but I would bet dollars to donuts that your access has more to do with the amount you have contributed and/or your position, than it does their loyalty to you the voter. Ask the people who were able to reach John Dent, the former Republican snake oil salesman Senator from Pennsylvania, how much good it did them?
The elected have stacked the deck against you specifically so they do not have to be accountable to us.
Ask yourself why we have to raise money and give it to whichever congressman is supposedly helping us? Aren’t they elected to help us without our giving them money? Aren’t they collecting a taxpayer provided salary and pension? Why is it expected that we must raise money for them to do what they were elected and are being paid to do?
The next time you attend a town-hall political gathering and the candidate doesn’t take questions directly from the floor from people who have not been selected prior to the event – everyone should get up and walk out.
Politicians are like dogs that refuse to be house broken. You can either put them outside or get rid of them. In the case of politicians putting them outside or getting rid of them is one in the same.
The most important thing for people to remember is that politicians thrive in the zeitgeist we provided for them. Tangential to that point is the fact, that there has never in the history of disease been a cancer that healed itself.
If these political cancers are to be eradicated it is up to us to be the surgeons that remove them. Like dogs that aren’t housebroken, politicians will continue to ignore us because they are permitted. They will continue to make lifetime careers with retirement and pension benefits that we cannot begin to imagine.
Moving forward, I’m going to be revealing their egregious self-provided perks at our expense. The question you have to answer is, are you going to continue to be bathroom tissue to politicians?
