Reply #7: There are 2 kinds of people, the Corporate Elites and Everyone Else

[Odin2005]

Both the Dems and the Pukes are controlled by the Corporate Elites, one party throwing economic bones and the other party throwing cultural bones to Everyone Else. They play Kabuki Theater to keep voters energized and obsessed with "Red" vs. "Blue", as if Politics were a sport (as shown by the apologists for Obama's pro-Corporate actions).

There is no real Democracy anymore. The US is a single party Authoritarian state subservient to a Multinational Corporate Elite whose decisions are enforced by transnational institutions like the IMF. Old-fashioned censorship is not needed because people's minds are controlled by the MSM, thus the illusion of a Free Press is kept up.
