  1. until nixon got in, usa politicians referred to themselves as the 'administration,' implying that usa was a democracy, doing the will of the people. nixon took the mask off, even daring to create a palace guard wearing roman helmets. that lasted only days, but 'government' was here to stay. and yet, there was no outcry, perhaps the cattle simply didn't know the difference. or they did, and were clear about their status. usa has no referendum, and still less the over-riding power of initiative. when you refer to the usa as a democracy you debase the highest political ideal that homer sap has envisioned. worse yet, you ensure continuing servitude to politicians, and their rich patrons. why would you want to do that?

  2. it's not for you, it's for those crooked enough to get elected while pursuing their own self-interest.
