(7,794 posts)In profound ways, American government has, over 200+ years, evolved into a sort of secret society. It's like a multi-layered cabal whose priority is to prevent the electorate from possessing accurate information on issues which may shine a bad light on their intentions and it's working perfectly. Just over half the voters are totally misinformed on important issues preventing even the possibility of them making informed choices. So far as I can tell, it's been this way ever since I was old enough to notice stuff outside my hometown.
Don't know why it's that way, but it definitely is that way. Why has it always been this way? Because people like to guess and imagine stuff. It keeps them preoccupied. So long as people are preoccupied, they won't try to change things. Sometimes it works that they let people think things are changing but then it comes out that it's still the same shit and nobody's gonna be allowed to lift a finger to change it.
