It would be much simpler if...

[Warren Stupidity]

all of the corporate duopolists reorganized into the Corporate Duopolist Party, and all of the 'others' re-organized into the Citizens Party. Then I could vote for the party that represented me. Then again, it wouldn't be a duopoly anymore, would it? *
















*motivated by the closure vote in the senate, sigh.

1. how do you see this happening?

How do we start a Citizens Party?

[Warren Stupidity]

2. I don't. I give the fuck up.

it was just an idle thought, a wistful fantasy of what might be or might have been.

3. And in its 1st year Lobbyists will Buy out the Citizen Party, making the 2 Corporate Parties

[Warren Stupidity]

4. Nah - we have a handful of independent non-corporationists

We would of course be the minority party, but at least we would not have this idiotic pretense that one half of the duopoly party represents 'working people'.

So maybe 20 or so senators, and perhaps 100 representatives. But we would know where we stand.

5. Or it will be infiltrated

by corporatist actors that receive a huge salary behind the scene to undermine our interests. Still, something major must be done. We see this problem throughout the Western world now.
