It's a good thing we elect corporately owned democrats to counter the corporately owned republicans.

It's a good thing because rich people might end up with more money than God, and We The Sheepeople might end up with no pot to piss in, and a morally and financially bankrupted joke of a government.

Before being elected Reagon was quick to point out the corporate CEO's in the Carter White House...

And sure enough.

http://www.newswithviews.com/Wood/patrick9.htm

In 1978, this writer's book Trilaterals Over Washington revealed the global strategy of the Trilateral Commission and it's co-founders David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski. Brzezinski, in particular, provided the intellectual reasoning and political strategy for the "New International Economic Order".

Brzezinski was also an astute political operator. He is credited as the first person to take interest in Jimmy Carter, to mentor him in globalism starting in 1973 when Carter was chosen to be part of the Trilateral Commission. Upon Carter's election victory in 1976, Brzezinski was appointed National Security Advisor. By the end of 1976, Carter had appointed no less than 19 members of the Trilateral Commission to high-ranking government positions. These 19 members represented just under 20% of the entire U.S. delegation of the Trilateral Commission.

The stage was now set for their power to become permanently embedded. Each successive Administration has been disproportionally dominated by members of the Trilateral Commission: George H.W. Bush, William Jefferson Clinton, Richard B. Cheney. Each administration filled top posts from the Trilateral Commission. Think-tanks connected to the Trilateral Commission cranked out volumes of studies that droned on and on about the New International Economic Order, interdependence and the need for political change.

Looking backward to Brzezinski, however, is necessary because he most clearly and lucidly embodied the heart and soul of the rush to globalism. He created the watershed that initiated the plundering of America and the buildup of the global corporate elite. This issue intends to quantify the extent of this plundering.

It's funny how Reagon, as a part of his campaign strategy, condemned Carter for using so many corporate CEO's in his administration, and once he (Reagon) got in the White House the place became a corporate CEO resort, and it has been that way ever since, and Clinton and Obama are no exceptions.

In fact if your not a pro Corporation political candidate, who has taken a party line oath to not rock the boat, the American voters will, as if there's a little voice in their head, magically begin to parrot how unelectable you are. And then they will turn around and elect or reelect the same criminal corporate sycophants that they love to complain about, saying, "We had no other choice but to vote for a lessor evil".

Wala, the best parts of our two party pretend democracy is that the cash flow coming from the rich fucks at the top of the pyramid, into the campaign coffers of both parties, buys the mental programming that the majority of voters will use, via the M$M, as the premises, aka the little voice in their head, for who is electable and who is not.

Unfortunately, far to many of the poor schmucks down hear at the bottom of the pyramid, i.e. the ones who labor more for less, as a means to make the wealth that makes the rich fucks even richer, absolutely refuse to see just how bad their minds are being manipulated over social issues, into voting against their own financial interest. Hence the saying, "If your looking for the guilty, you need only to look into the mirror".

It takes some highly developed well tuned magical thinking skills...

in order to believe that some hard core champion of capitalism gives a shit about the rights and needs of anyone else but their own.

It's a sad reality that so many people refuse to see the obvious and keep screwing themselves. Convinced things will get better as long as they keep on supporting rich people who ensure that the government stays rigged in such a way that it always serves the best interest of rich people, regardless of the controlling party, BS, and bogus promises they feed the incorrigible voters.

As If eight more years of Capitalism, and Reagonomics under Obama hasn't been good enough, let's give it a try under Hillary, and maybe something magical and good will happen. Not!

Brand Obama once said during one of his we need change speeches, "You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig." We'll guess what, the rich money pigs did very well under Obama, so nothing changed for the better when it come to the rich getting richer of the backs of labor, and Hillary Clinton, at best, will be more of the same.

Capitalism is a social cancer and professor Wolff cuts to the very core.

This is one of the best videos on the worlds economic crises I've seen in a long time.

Obama has a habit of praising evil people.

Unfortunately, when you elect snake oil salesmen into political office snakes become highly respected.

It's to bad that truth has to be such a downer, but it is what it is.

Thanks for the video.

Stop kidding yourself our problems started long before Reagon.

Take for instance the following little "Inconvenient Truth"...

But don't stop here history is full of inconvenient truths, the covert usurpation of America has been in the making long before anyone alive today.

The people in this country are so far beyond fucked up most don't even know their fucked up.

Besides, how does a democratic process work in a mostly authoritarian society that is ruled by criminals who have thoroughly brainwashed the citizenry with right wing fairytales and lies?

In myths and fairy tales you have royal blood and kings...

In science and sociology you have genetic psychopathy and CEO's.

If you were to study the character traits of royal families, Jamie Dimon, most politicians, confirmed and convicted psychopaths, you might not find any differences, other then they are radically different from the honest people they gracefully deceive, which is most of the population.

But yes it is funny, the cartoon puts a crown on the corporate caricature, and psychologist describe the character traits of a corporations as being that of a psychopath.

So when the SCOTUS said corporations are people it becomes obvious that the majority of the Worlds population would be better served if these kind of people were not allowed to play King of the hill any longer, but rather, eliminated from the gene pool altogether.

Ron Paul is definitely a crazy nut job wacko...

However, as a consequence to rampant corruption, and no accountably within our rigged two party pretend democracy, a huge majority of misinformed and misguided, magical thinking, psychologically impoverished dumbfucks, will try to fix something that they don't have a clue about, and that is why we have a very corrupt, broken, dysfunctional, corporately owned government in the first place.

So it's only a matter of time until the worst of right wing extremist crazy lunatics like Bush, Bachmann, Paylin or Paul gets in the White House. Well maybe not Paul, because he wants to take the Banks away from the banksters and let all the narcissistic sycophants in Congress control the money supply; not that we would be better off; that is simple not going to happen.

As to the video, I have a good understanding of history, as well as the psychology of politics gone wrong, and for what it's worth, I think the video is 100% spot on, but then, I taught my brain to not reject what I see and hear just because I want the truth to be something that it is not.

That's just my opinion.

It's maybe a good explanation as to how corporations were sold to the working class.

But it doesn't, for obvious reasons, address the underlying corruption of a corporate management which bribes, and then extorts, the political system into removing any form of citizen oversight; effectively putting corporations and corporate managers above law.

Which in turn, alows corporations and corporate managers the opportunity to commit the biggest acts of legalized imbezalment, and inviormentle destruction (etc...) in all of human history.

Adding: Putting horns on Elmer Fudds head and a pitchfork in his hand might have painted a more truthful picture as to the true character of corporations.
