Add to that short-sighted self interest then you have the perfect environment for some form of dictatorship to flourish. You may wish to install a more direct democratic process but how do you propose to do that when the populace is quite happy to have what democracy we have stolen from them without much protest? Your ambition although laudable is a forlorn hope. Only events will bring about a change how we are governed and by who. Fortunately or not as only the final result will attest those events are quickly coming about as standards of living are being more and more eroded. At some point they will drop sufficiently to rouse the population out of their stupor and then change will come about.Antistheneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10120647617145756102noreply@blogger.com
