And people keep buying it.

Well, first, I think too many are on the payroll of their corporate masters, but that's another subject.

Second, how is what you see today any different from any time in our past?

First- agree.

Second- The degree of corruption is worse today. I am not an historian so it is hard for me to compare to prior periods in American History but it just seems to me greed is king in Washington because of those cozy corporate relationships. The entire system needs to be cleansed. What do you think?
