Reply #3: Americans like the system they have: a leader is selected clandestinely

[kenny blankenship]

through a secret process of backstabbing intrigue and chicanery from among a closed loop of ladder climbing insiders, according to criteria and preferences that have nothing to with the rest of us--the result is announced and the people go on with their lives trying to earn enough so they can retire and die. The people like this system; they like this system because it's exactly like the one they know from their workplace. They have to obey and like it, and that's easy because it's what they are used to. You may say they don't like this system, but I don't hear them complaining. And anyway we all know what happens to people who complain too much at work.
