Pigmen Win Again

“The real owners are the big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians, they’re an irrelevancy. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don’t. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land.

Do you understand how the shell game keeps going? If you read that article and still believe in political party difference, there's not much else I can do for you and there isn't much you'll ever do for me besides prolong my head scratching and amazement as to why people are so incredibly hard headed when it comes to waking up and seeing the system for what it is. I woke up a long time ago...
