My Analysis of America's Opinion of Our Direction

[Ignignokt]

It's true. Democracy is all about who can get more numbers regardless of ethics. Democracy is purely tyranny of the majority.

Can't be done without money and it takes more now than it ever has -- took Obama $1B.

[MannyIsGod]

Obama's policies are socialist?

which one are those and which ones have been implemented as Exec branch's laws and regulations?

Did you miss the quotes?

[RandomGuy]

100% of Random people surveyed think this thread is headed in the wrong direction.
















HA!

There is no such thing as corrupting influences in a democracy in the sense that money corrupts politics.

Cronyism and corruption are just a myth?

Revealing.

I'm just saying, that you can't say something is corrupting a corrupt system.

I also want to say that you guys are a bunch of tools. There is no such thing as corrupting influences in a democracy in the sense that money corrupts politics. Govt is inherently evil, and democracy is hardly just.

No one's rights should be put up for a vote. When society decides have the law serve it, rather than it serve the law we get corruption regardless of campaign finance regulations.

Who or what determines that rights of man?

You are going mystical on us now. Government is inherently evil? If you really want to believe that man left to his own devices will be 'good' then you go ahead and think that.

[TDMVPDPOY]

politics for making every country running backwards due to bad policy or the opposition govt wants to block every forward thinking policy....

I think we could argue whether the system is inherently or necessarily evil. I don't particularly agree that it has to be inherently corrupt. It certainly has evolved that way.
