this is what the American system is about
27 August 2008
If you want to know what the American society is about, this film is a good place to start gaining such knowledge. To protect their property, those few rich who own America, Jew and Non-Jew, will stop at nothing. As always, it is easier to understand a few people's sufferings compared with millions sufferings. But that is not really the lesson here. The lesson is that America has never been a democracy. At best it is an oligarchy inhabited by people, who believe that something is fair because it is a competition in which everyone can participate, admittedly not on the same terms but still. But a competition in which the many are left comparatively poor and the few are the winners is not something fair - it's an abomination! And a democracy (the only one existing now is the one in Switzerland with all its flaws) is government by the people, the people deciding in matters and the government only having the right to carry out what the people have decided, which, for some odd reason, today is called "direct" democracy. America is and has always been a representative dictatorship, in which the people have the right to choose one of their dictators (those with the real power always hiding in the background, the owners who buy everyone) called "the president" and otherwise have very little right. How little "right" the American people has in the American society is made very obvious in this picture.
