This letter to the editor outlines the decent of political ethics as Global Corporatism has advanced.

::::::::

We are a public who lives under rules set by international corporatists. They develop the rhetoric we see, read, and hear. Truth be damned. They tell us what fits into their agenda.

This is why we are involved in a War based on Lies. It was set off by one day. It looked like we were under attack similar to “Pearl Harbor”. We have had a media shut down on factual reporting concerning explosions that were heard before the Towers fell. These collapses were similar to professional demolitions and unlike any historical pancake collapse. No similar tower has ever fallen due to fire.

Ethics use to guide business decisions. Now Greed is powerful and ethical behavior is seen as weakness. “We the People” have no voice. Our Party system places impeachment and accountability off the table as our election seasons gets longer. Politicians spend more money raised from lobbyists representing Greedy business interests and contractors who make huge profits. Tax dollars are used as payoffs with no accountability or oversight.

My favorite quote from Thomas Jefferson is: “I have stood before the alter of God and sworn eternal hostility toward all forms of tyranny over the minds of men”. He wrote this in a letter to a gentleman named Benjamin Rush. He spoke to his resistance to influence from members of the clergy in his policy making. It seems we have sold the dream and the magic for less then a sack of silver.
