(51,076 posts)Don't let anyone tell you otherwise either. We have got to get this shit stopped. Pretty much the way our election laws are written now it put the vote of our congress critters, dem and pukes alike, on the auction block. If someone would come up with a system like we have right now and try to sell it to the people they'd be tared and feathered then rode out of town strapped straddled legged to a pole tied between two galloping horses. we can bet our ass on that too. Our system is the most corrupt in the world of the ones who claim to have any semblance of a democracy
Election laws changed and the Press taken out of the hands of corporations. Our press was intended to be the fourth leg of the 3 legged stool called democracy they set up damn near 240 years ago. The press being the most important part of that whole system they envisioned. Without a honest and open press you have nothing. We don't have an honest press now and haven't in a while. This all goes back the the watefgate hearings and nixons forced resignation. The pukes took that one personal. The ones involved were caught red handed and everyone knew it so the pukes vowed to never let that happen again. Pukie buying up the print and over the air News Organizations began in earnest. They pretty much control way more than their share of the newspapers and news organizations on air. We're fucked until we get that fixed. pretty simple actually
