You complain about how the people you want voted are not; that's basically a minority wanting majority power.
Oh I didn't know it was a minority a to not want the top 1% corporation rule to rule the 90%
It's not my personal views.
If I pull myself out from my own politics, outside looking in.
The Republican party doesn't match up those who vote for them.
Same with the democratic party.
The one clear uniting issue.
Is corporation, over people
There's a massive dissonance occurring. People only vote for them, because that's the only option they've been provided. A pick between of lesser of evils. Nothing truly aligning with what they want.
They are giving up voting for their conscious since they feel that voting third party is a waste of a vote.
Again, capitalism controlling essentially who you get to elect.
If they were to find a candidate they want, it would be out campaigned for the status quo, by those who want to keep it. Aka the rich.
You definitely don't understand immigrants from Socialist countries, their backstory and distrust of anything labelled Socialism.
And I bet you don't know anything about those who would wish the USSR was back.
I'd imagine the reason of that distrust in anything socialism comes back to multiple issues
Primarily the red scare. Which in the United States heavily lobbied against anything socialist to essentially flex and show that capitalism is better.
No, really, that's the entire reason. (also not to forget to mention the reason why we went to war with Vietnam was because they became communist.)
combined with countries naming themselves socialist or communist while not actually being (cough cough china. China is more closer to capitalist than actual socialist or communist in the modern day. Even though the main controlling party has Communism in the name)
I hope your not confusing your economic systems and social scale systems. Since if your thinking socialism is inherently authoritarian or same for communism. Congrats, you fell for the red scare propaganda.
You can have a country that is democratic and also socialist/communist. You can have authoritarian capitalism. (china)
I say that now since, well, due to the red scare, essentially, it's created a situation that conflates economic and social scale systems, that has been deeply rooted/impacted American politics and culture.
he saddest part is that you don't realise this is not from a broken system but from the country's Democracy.
It is broken systems.
Capitalism has a incentive, that incentive is money over people.
Nothing more nothing less. As long as that incentive remains, corruption will too.
Democracy doesn't live in a vacuum. it Lives with the system along side it. If the system along side it allows and enables corruption, so too will it, even in the most perfect images of a democratic system.
Long story short, get the majority to think like you and you'll have your change.
The majority of people already agree with my sentiment that the current system we have. Is not working.
We may come to different reasons as to why it's not working. We may come to different solutions to fix it.
However we all know at this point it's blatantly, not working, it is favoring the rich, there is no equality in that. And as a result, people's voices are going unheard.
I may not have agreement with the people on the other side of the isle about what do to do. But we both agree it's a serious issue. from what I can tell.
Who knows, the next time we chat you might become a Politician yourself.
Most politicians are rich, own a profitable business or is capable of investing in stocks along with knowledge likely the public won't know.
I consider that highly unlikely, I would be out lobbied. Unless I drank the poison that would be accepting donor money and having to give up my values in order to keep competing.
