The corporate purchase and corruption of our nation must end.

Secret laws, secret courts, mass surveillance, propaganda machines, criminalization of investigative journalism, militarized police, indefinite detention, "Kill Lists," expansion of private prisons, "trade" agreements that override democratic laws and regulations, dismantling of our Constitution, persecution of whistleblowers, endless wars for profit, and predatory looting of millions for the profit of a few.

We are ruled by liars and criminals now.
