Chris Hedges - The Last Gasp of American Democracy

[Dustlawyer]

32. All we can do is to keep pointing it out. I hope each time we do we get at least one new convert

that realizes that our 2 parties are nothing more than the Harlem Globetrotters and the Washington Generals (no disrespect to those great entertainers) who follow a predetermined script and try to make us believe it is all real! Their job is to keep us mad and blaming the other party for all of the problems all of us in the 99% have to deal with.
While eating lunch in a restaurant today I saw the crawl under Wolf Blitzer state that Obama is going to enact some NSA reforms. They will throw us a bone and lie to us (again) and keep on collecting, listening, and spying on us while still saying Snowden was wrong to leak to us the proof of their lying, Constitutional violations. Sheeple will say "ok" and move back to trying to survive. If it were not for the bloated, humongous Defense budget, and corporations not having to pay taxes, our country would be prosperous. Our educational system would be the envy of the world, infrastructure up to date, and great health care for all!
Thanks for helping to spread the truth!
