... " How the F--- did we get here " ... read your own history. An EMPIRE more concerned with Profit for a FEW ... " We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we can't have both " ~ Louis Brandeis

@fortressofswolitude As I've said many times ... America IS an Empire, and despite all the noble words, it isn't any different than ANY Empire in the past ... And don't welcome ME back, I'm not an American and I wouldn't become one for ANY amount of money.

@Swnsasy A good quote and a valid point. And all too often, there isn't that big a difference between the tactics they use.

@ That's because " We the People " was ALWAYS a fantasy. Your Founders were a group of UPPER CLASS, Wealthy White MEN, most of whom were Slave owners, and believed - quite publicly - that only THEIR Class, gender AND color should be able to vote ... I'm sorry, but if you weren't aware of that, you SHOULD have been, and if you were aware of it - what did you expect ?

@themaskedman221 We're talking about the States, which IS an Empire, and a Dying one ... my admonishment to " read your own history " meant exactly that ... Your OWN history and how it applies to NOW in YOUR Country, not what the Europeans did in the past.

@jerste Getting caught isn't hard when you are certain that the system doesn't work ... and Trump was right, - even when you get caught, there is little or no cost.
