We have private interest rule...
...in the USA.
The private wealthy elite have bought our government and are soaking it with tax breaks for themselves and virtually zero oversight via their bought-off politicians.

Democratic and Republican Party affiliation is for us to be "distracted" with and fight amongst ourselves over while they get their way.

Democracy is a weak at best and they own the voting machines.


my 2 cents anyway.

1. That sums it up very well.

I say this country will not be recognizable in ten years.
By the time all is said and done, nothing but tatters will remain.
Oh, and a couple thousand Walmarts.

2. American Corporatism' special interest lobbying has up-ended the concept of redress...
redress

1. the setting right of what is wrong: redress of abuses.
2. relief from wrong or injury.
3. compensation or satisfaction for a wrong or injury.


American Corporatism hasn't been wronged, they are in too many cases the wrong-doers, it's the American people that need to seek redress from them
