Let's look at American democracy the way it's suppose to work ... a body with 2 hearts, one pumping in favor of the wealthy/corporations, the other pumping in the opposite direction for the workers and the less well off. Only one pump works at any time. the one in the WH. But today the pump which is suppose to be pumping for us (the Dems) is really like the valves in your veins; they don't pump in the other direction, they make sure that there's no backflow after the Repubs are voted out of office. Translation: The current system needs to be replaced before we're all dead.

They tried to assimilate me. They failed.
