We do NOT have a democracy in the USA.  If we did, we would have no troops in either Iraq or Iran because that is what the MAJORITY of Americans want.  We would have a single payer health care system because that is what the majority of the people in the USA want.  Large banks like Goldman Sachs and CitiBank would not be receiving the handouts of our taxpayer dollars because the MAJORITY of Americans no not want to give these blood sucking greedy leeches a penny.  They are no friend of the people.

In a democracy, the MAJORITY rule.

The type of government that we have instead is a CORPORATE  OLIGARCHY.

*******************************************************************

FROM WIKI:
An oligarchy (Greek Ὀλιγαρχία, Oligarkhía) (oligocracy) is a form of government in which power effectively rests with a small elite segment of society distinguished by royal, wealth, intellectual, family, military, or religious hegemony.  Such states are often controlled by politically powerful families whose children are heavily conditioned and mentored to be heirs of the power of the oligarchy. Therefore China would be a communist oligarchy style of government.

Oligarchies have been tyrannical throughout history, being completely reliant on public servitude to exist. Globalization has been one of the tools, fueled by tyrannical trade agreements like NAFTA, which have been used to ensure public servitude by reducing the number of job and decreasing the working conditions and pay for laborers.

The USA and in fact all democracies today should be considered as oligarchies. In these systems, actual differences between viable political rivals are small, the oligarchic elite impose strict limits on what constitutes an ‘acceptable’ and ‘respectable’ political position, and politicians’ careers depend heavily on unelected economic and media elites. Thus the popular phrase: there is only one political party, the ‘incumbent’ party.

THE USA is a Corporate Oligarchy (Corporatocracy)

Corporate oligarchy is a form of power, governmental or operational, where such power effectively rests with a small, elite group of inside individuals or influential economic entities or devices, such as banks, commercial entities that act in complicity with, or at the whim of the oligarchy, often with little or no regard for constitutionally protected preogative.

HOW CAN WE THE PEOPLE CHANGE THIS?

1. Recognize that the overwhelming majority of the Democrats and Republicans in Congress are members of the same elite club and they control the leadership of both parties.

This is why nothing of any real significance changes when the party changes power.  For example, has the war in the Middle East ended since the Democrats who were elected with a mandate to end it  took over the majority of Congress in 2006?  Hell no.  Instead they have continue to increase the various “surges” and spend even more of our taxpayer dollars for the corporate welfare of war contractors.

STOP THINKING THAT IF YOU GET ONE PARTY OR THE OTHER ONE IN OFFICE THAT THINGS WILL CHANGE.

NOTHING WILL CHANGE UNTIL THE AMERICAN PEOPLE USE THE POWER OF THEIR VOTES TO REMOVE MOST OF THE INCUMBENTS FROM CONGRESS.

2.We should not give a dime to any organization directly associated with either party.

Republicans should not give a dime to the RNC–not a penny. Nor should you support groups like “Americans for Prosperity”–these are nothing but fake groups made to look like they represent ordinary Americans when in fact they represent the rich.  In the case of “Americans for Prosperity”, this group is funded by David Koch of  Koch Industries–one of the richest men on the planet  #16 to be exact.

Democrats should not give a dime to the DNC or to the DSCC (a fund that is directed by the leadership of the Democratic Party.

RECOGNIZE THAT THE LEADERSHIP OF BOTH PARTIES IS CORRUPT TO THE CORE.

3. We can begin by removing most of the multimillionaires from Congress

The main way to do this is with your vote.  First of all work at the primary level.  Get the incumbents out of Congress by replacing them in your primaries.

Elect people you can trust to support a democratic society.  For the most part these people will be people who have less than a million dollars and who do not own a cent of Wall Street stock.

YES WE CAN!   TELL AT LEAST ONE OTHER PERSON.

WITH OUR VOTES AND OUR RESOLVE WE CAN DEFEAT THEM.

***********************************************************

A non-millionaire Republican has more in common with a non-millionaire Democrat in terms of needed legislation than a non-millionaire Republicans has in common with a multimillionaire Republican in the Senate and vice versa.

ORDINARY AMERICANS MUST STAND TOGETHER TO DEFEAT TYRANNY THAT THE RICH CALL “DEMOCRACY”.  WE MUST JOIN HANDS AND CREATE A NEW ONE BY “CLEANING OUT THE TEMPLE.”

YES, IT IS A CLASS WAR THAT WE ARE ENGAGED IN.

AND NO, MOST OF US WILL NEVER GRAB THE “GOLDEN RING”, BUT WE CAN CHANGE THINGS SO THAT WE CAN ALL LEAD DECENT SAFE AND HEALTH LIVES–WHICH IS A HELLUVA LOT MORE THAN WE HAVE NOW WITH THE CONTINUED GOOD COP/BAD COP GAMES PLAYED BY THE RICH LEADERSHIP OF BOTH PARTIES.

Proclaim the Queen!
