Do you feel represented by Congress? If you're not corporate America, Wall Street, a wealthy or powerful individual, chances are that you have absolutely no representation in Congress, or in government. Do you feel that Congress works hard to ensure equal opportunity, equal rights, and a better way of life for all citizens? If you feel they do, then can you explain the loss of privacy, the injustices in our judicial system, growing poverty and homelessness, and the millions dependent on government assistance programs?
In reality, Congress is a brotherhood of puppets, dancing to the tunes played by corporate America, Wall Street, the wealthy, the powerful, and the influential. Members of Congress do what they're told to do by the ones that placed them in office. Members of Congress owe favors, they have political debt to repay, and they sell their votes on the floors of Congress in order to satisfy those obligations. Lobbyists hand out hundreds of millions of dollars to ensure that members of Congress never forget how they got to be members of Congress.
It's also important that we all remember that Congress is comprised of Democrats, Republicans, Liberals, Conservatives, Independents, Right wings, Left Wings, and any other label one wishes to attach. Regardless of the label, they're all politicians, doing what politicians do. John Q. Public is without representation in Washington, and the daily headlines bear witness to that truism. The only reason that we have what little we have today, is that Congress hasn't figured out how to take it from us without an all out civil revolt. Their process so far has been to take from us, piece by piece, little by little, in hopes that continuous minor pain stretched out over decades, will keep us from noticing their master plan, and from feeling the harsh sting all at once.
The Washington Brotherhood is an entity unto itself, answerable to no one except itself. Their power and control is just the opposite of what our founding fathers envisioned for this nation. We have been defeated by their greed, and by their thirst and hunger for power and complete control.
