democratic republic. Theocratic corporate fascism is what we live under and the Constitution may as well be physically shredded as it has already been shredded as an ideal and statement of rights and laws. The blundering yet helpful idiot to the power mongers, GWB, has used war, fear and death to accomplish it's downfall. I'm totally cynical now. Voting does nothing but set up candidates with good ideas and intentions to be led to a veritable mind fuck of a slaughter of their will, by the greed infested power hungry gate keepers of social acceptance. Political activism in this country has been marginalize to the point of being nothing more than a curiosity. Small steps and "gives" have been allowed as to make it seem to the masses that things are changing but things that change are more to the extent of issues that will enhance the bottom line of the 1%. The rights of We The People are dead as a concept and the powerful know it. They do not want to make it seem as such. If people did realized that thieves have stolen their future by gaming the system and bastardizing the past to their advantage I think there would be a change. A quick change. A change that would rock the world of the 1%.

But, all is well as long as we keep watching celebrities compete for wealth from the comfort from our collective couches we know in our hearts that "some day" we can be famous and wealthy too.
