Why Should Americans Bow Down To Corporations? The answer is so simple; because they own you bitch! For those who have not yet heard the wisdom of the late, great
George Carlin, may I quote some of his teachings relevant to this situation: “Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land, they own and control the corporations that've long since bought and paid for, the senate, the congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pocket, and they own all the big media companies so they control just
about all of the news and the information you get to hear. They got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else. But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them.”
The gentleman being interviewed appears to be honest and fair minded. Sadly that means nothing in today’s world. The corporate-government is accelerating its fascism faster than the people are becoming aware of the oncoming storm. What ideology is going to win, Democracy or Fascist Totalitarianism? I would prefer some form of Democracy but I would have to bet on a mutated form of Totalitarianism. Sadly the gentleman being interviewed is wrong; the people never had any say in the direction of the United States;
Democracy had always been an illusion and the Oligarchs (Owners) have always been in control. Do yourself a favor; read and watch (YouTube) some of the Carlin wisdom for yourself; you may learn something.
