Michigan Stands for Democracy

Posted on Michigan Stands for Democracy by | Jonny Cache

Dear _______,

If the _______ Party intends to save itself over the next few years, the people who run for office as _______ will need to start recognizing and acting on these fundamental truths:
1. Office-holders are elected to represent the People.
2. Corporations are not people.
3. Corporations do not have natural rights.
4. Corporations are subject to laws that people make for them.
5. Office-holders are not elected to represent the Corporations.
Thank you, I wish you the best of luck waking up to these truths.

Tony Lagace Ain't this sick...we gotta get ourselves organized in resistance to Exactly This kind of thing! We better all realize and help others to as well what direction the men behind the curtain are trying to take us. Dismantling public education is just one block they are putting into the wall they built to keep us separated from them...

Joel Reinstein there's just no recognition of widespread deceit in the mainstream discourse. You start talking about this kind of stuff, they're like "lol tinfoil hat." "BUT IT'S RIGHT THERE IN THE VIDEO-" "yeah sure, and the moon landing was a Zionist hoax, right."

Tony Lagace I think alotta it has got to do with how one comes across though... I think there is a fairly big notion amongst many Americans that corporations (and wealthy) pull the strings-- in abstract though. I mean even the tea party was against corporate welfare in the form of bank bailouts way back when. It's a protracted struggle for sure though, they are tossing around ideas to move us back 100 years...

I've noticed this phenomenon before. People who have the normal amount of decency and honesty either cannot comprehend or cannot tolerate thinking about the kind of evil that lurks in the hearts of *some people*. The engine of a working co...n game is always an irrational expectation in the heart of the mark, but it's the mark's lack of healthy skepticism or previous experience of being burned that fails to put the brakes on the game once it starts running.
