"Now, a question arises with regard to the USA: is it more of a country
(like, say, France) or is it more of a corporation (like, say AIG or GM
or GS)? Looking at its politics, it is apparent that it is more of a
country club than a country. Corporations are clearly the ones in
charge, through electoral campaign donations, lobbyists, and the
revolving door between corporate and government positions. The periodic
electoral monkey-business and fake media frenzy are just there as an ad
campaign to keep the brand fresh. It does seem more and more like a
corporate entity, with a small and shrinking number of shareholders,
whose latest scheme (now that the whole thing is spiraling the drain) is
to have the government print lots of money just so that they can pocket
huge sums of it...."
