Res Publica: Elections 2010/Public Policy: Short of revolution---it’s all we’ve got…….

Given the death-grip (think ticks) the oligarchs-capitalists have on “the Beast” any (even random) thought of overthrowing a non-responsive government even if it is a duty as Thomas Jefferson stated is unlikely and given the concept that “we the people” are “the government”----Elections 2010 and the public policy that will come from it is all we have. Deal with it.

Ayn Rand, Ann Coulter, Glen Beck and the rest, notwithstanding, without the Beast even the most entrepreneurial capitalist would fall on their face. Until such time as we live in an automaton nation (we’re almost there) people-labor is still a necessity.

All the people, i. e. "the Beast", are saying is we deserve our share. All the oligarchic-capitalists are saying, is hey you live in America, you have the American Dream (delusional though that is), chump-change for income (if you have a job) maybe healthcare---you (the Beast) it’s always all about you! You think you are entitled to more just because you helped make us rich by your labor, purchases and taxes you pay? Just because only you serve in the military that keeps oglarich-capitalist factories, businesses and money safe---you think you deserve more? Hah!

Meanwhile in France where they still exercise their “rights” for weeks we’ve seen 100's of thousands out in the streets protesting---we see "democracy" at work. Protesters will show those unruly office holders who the boss is!! No?

No. It’s really more like democracy at the pleasure of the oligarchs. In France like here in the U.S. the rich make off like bandits yet again
