Look at the discussion we had on this board about climate change for example.
We haven't had any discussion on "climate change" here in a very long time, I mean other than you derailing threads with that absolute nonsense.

psssst... Nibblewitz, the US isn't a "democracy", never was - never will be. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Nor is Europe. Democracy is for 3rd world nations, and then usually isn't but only by name.

Very true. The U.S. government has nurtured the largest of corporations with bailouts, subsidies, lack of trade barriers, and "nation building".

Yeah it's bogged down by socialism and corporatism. Then things like TPP etc are anti-capitalist at their core (over 2/3 of it doesn't even have anything to do with trade).

As for democracy, we really wouldn't want that. Sure there is truth in that on the surface, we cant have them both, but especially democracy with or without capitalism. This is why we have a Constitutional Republic, which does work. Democracy is often found more on the state level, but as a tool to service our republics as the need arises. But even at state level, these too are formed as Constitutional Republics with their own State Constitutions and Assemblies. Democracy is three wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner.

slowly the politicians/people in power/representatives have changed the words they used to make them more accepted to the masses... especially with the rock star/king/queen ly perspective portrayed around our president's...


people are too emotional and subject to social engineering and coercion during crisis....


Woodrow Wilson and his banker cronies started the current storyline... people would rather hear what they heard than learn be ready and fight for whats right and slowly it has crept up to now... to where im talkin about it... /facepalm

Would require a global citizenship so the majority of the world that is raped by corporate funded, government sanctioned, economic colonization could bolster the lamb's vote.

nah it's all private property rights.... whats the most important property you own.... your own body.

i could see something global around that...

however when I get to decide what you can do is when it all falls apart...

also... dont only listen to what they tell u... look at the facts, figure out the deception.

how come they are talking about this and still not about paying down the debt with inflated currency with an exploding interest rate

Along with the Fed shifting their focus from interest rates to gdp growth.
