What We Are Not

We are not a country and government for the people and by the people.

We are a country and government for the 1% and by the 1%.

The corporate rich who own and run our country own and run "our" politicians.  These politicians have forgotten how to represent "we the people".  This 1%'s plutocracy makes representing the people and representing their masters' greed two mutually exclusive traits.  It is not possible to do both no matter what they say.  
   
These plutocrats are the ones who start the wars and cause the financial meltdowns which only they profit from. They control and profit from our health care, our livelihoods, our laws, our taxes, our wages, our environment, our land, our water, our food supply, our educational  system, our elections, our media,  jobs, our police, our military, our relationships with other countries,  and our kids' and grand kids' futures.

We the people know all this.  The question is:  when will we the people take to the streets and (peacefully) overthrow these tyrants and their system of plutocracy?

The time to talk to them, listen to them, and vote for them is over.
