electing officials
Who runs for office and why? The trouble with "vote them out of office" is the fact that elections are so convoluted and perverted by money that few candidates of worth are even in the running. The level of perversion now allowed by the supreme court jesters has completely corrupted the body politic. Add to that the fact that privately owned right wing greedy corporations count the votes with court protected election machines. That leaves we the people with 100% unverifiable totals and gives the republican mafia a license to steal elections with out fear of being caught or prosecuted. The new American society is truly pathetic.
