we have a democracy, but the rulers (The People)
have abdicated in favor of big money propagandists
we really need to do our job in finding people who
truly have the background, skills and values we want,
then keep them honest by paying attention and
praising or complaining as appropriate – and doing
our job of learning about the people we vote for so
we can’t be taken in by flashy big money paid for ads and such
