Not ‘somewhat correct’, teddy. Spot friggin’ on. There is nothing you can point to in my previous comment that is not factual.

America has been hijacked by the ruling class. There are unholy alliances between government and big business and government and the labor unions. Even the US media has been bought off to keep the citizens in the dark. Obvious violations of our Constitution and rule of law are not even mentioned in the mainstream media. Investigative journalists have been bought off and declawed. They’re very selective about the material they bring to the public’s attention.

Despite the huge amounts of corruption we’ve seen at the very highest levels in business and government, why do you think we haven’t seen another Watergate for over 40 years? Lack of opportunity? 😉

The gap between the rich and the poor has widened dramatically in the last decade. The rich became tremendously richer – even after the rich bankers destroyed the world’s economy. It was collusion between big government and big business that allowed that to happen. Norquist and Calle know that. They aren’t stupid.

The corporations bribe the legislators (both republicans and democrats) to pass favorable legislation that provide monopoly protections. That is the reason we spend 20% of our GDP on the medical system in the United States. Collusion between big government and big business.

And, of course, the big banks laundered trillions in narco dollars – and not a soul from those organizations got charged with crimes. Money laundering is supposed to be a minimum mandatory of 10 years. If you question whether the too big to fail banks laundered trillions in narco dollars – google it. It’s documented. All public information.

When corporations can break the laws and be immune from criminal actions – the rich are bound to get richer. If you could knock over 5 banks a day and not have to worry about being arrested – you’d get rich too!
