So yeah, tell the people who feed you how to live and under what rule.

Good luck in the contest.

Sounds like you don't approve of democracy. I've heard that Moscow is nice this time of year.

What matters is keeping folks with funny ideas and bad math - you know the type - from messing with a system that was well designed for the purpose it serves.

I also have no doubt that if the last few elections had the Dems winning the popular vote and the requisite 270 in the EC, you'd be just fine with the status quo.

The graft leads right back to large corporations centered in the metropolitan areas. John Deere tractors and their extortion of un-repairable software controlled tractors. Archer Daniels Midland, Monsanto, you think that money is going to the poor people ?

Y'all are the ones draining the resources out of the rural areas. The people, too. Like it's going to become your weekend playground.


You don't get farm subsidies in the cities. Imagine that. You think our welfare receipients are getting more support, than the inner city ones ? Even if that's true, you just want to kill off our poor, like you do to the urban homeless. Like that will make it fair somehow.

You mean the system is rewarding the paper pushers.

BTW after years of multiple Quantitative Easings (massive money printing) check who benefited the most...the banksters and their associates.

So much Reich-wing brainwashing. They've told people in "rural" areas that the "big coastal elites" will throw them under the bus the first chance they get. Because "those people" are just evil and such.
The Republican party: Divide and conquer.

The Reich Wing is hell bent on fomenting race wars, Black vs White USA citizens. I tried to read The Turner Diaries, but it's so stupid, worse than A Confederacy of Dunces, and not remotely funny.

And the Black Folks are just as brainwashed, just as easy to trigger as the Hick White people.

I see so called Liberals calling on Black Folks to rise up, now's the time for demonstrations and political wildings like Chicago. These Liberals in their gated commuinties aren't the ones facing the violence. I think they're agent provocateurs, striving for population reduction, and control of anything that's left over.

Care to let us in on who these "so called Liberals" are? When and where they're advocating such actions. Asking for a friend.

Also seeking info on the "Black Folks" being brainwashed would be helpful. "The Blacks" in general or just certain groups in particular?

Bob, it is a democracy of 50 separate states. Each state has a say in the totality.
Thus, the electoral college.
It would never have worked any other way because middle America would have told the large cities and states to fuck off.

May happen yet.

They induce fear based on outright lies and fear is the most basic and dominant emotion.

They will take away your guns.
You will lose your religious liberty.
LGBT, your children will be groomed.
Xenophobia, they will take your jobs.

Of course, there are several more.

Rajoo, I believe it is that same fear that has led to some of the recent shootings of victims doing innocent acts like ringing the wrong door bell. Without that fear would the man have answered the door with a weapon at the ready? Would he have fired that weapon through the door had he not been fearful? I am not trying to make excuses for what he did. But, I can understand why he was fearful.
