    Ooh. Me, me, me… I am.

    The government doesn’t work for you. You vote then in, sure, but they work for the lobbyists of large corporate interests.

    Any policy you want will only pass if the corporations want it to, or they don’t believe it will make a substantive difference in their ability to exploit your labor for profit, and take from you every dime, nickel, and dollar they can. They’ll only keep you happy enough to not revolt, and beyond that, you’re entirely fucked from all angles.
