| Re: The United States Is A Democracy Lord Fu thinks its an oligarchy, bns thinks its a democracy, Lord Fu agrees with bns. This is the kind of confusion that typifies the US population. There's lots of information flowing around but no one knows what the fuck they're really saying or thinking. Seems like mumbo jumbo to me.
A single-purpose party? Reform democracy? What does any of that mean? There are things wrong with the political structure but as I said in my initial post, that's the minor problem. The major problem is the arrangement of the society. Corporations. Not bad corporations. Corporations, period. When you concentrate wealth within a system where wealth buys power, you can't have democracy. Democracy is about the distribution of power.
Capitalism is opposed to that because it is opposed to evenly distributed wealth.
How can the proposed reforms work without changes to the superstructure? |
