Democracy Is Held Captive, Not Just By

Money Is Power In American Politics. It Always Has Been.

The Economy Is Not Governed With The Bottom Half In Mind.

The Present Struggle Seems Less About Abolishing Big Government Than About Who Gets To Use It.

If You Think About It, Washington's Overwhelming Power In The World Is Founded On Death, The Awesome Arsenal For Killing People.
