After living almost three quarters of a century, I have developed the realization that American Democracy IS NOT a good form of government because it places the control in the hands of an intellectually ignorant public who has no idea what is best for them and could easily be persuaded to cast their votes in such a way that it eliminates their ability to have freedom of choice without fully understanding what they have done to themselves. The American public is mentally lazy and politically and economically void of any kind of intellectual commitment to acquire a working understanding of what needs to be done.
We should have a government where the general public has NO CONTROL at all like what is found in a Dictatorship or Communism. Americans need to be told what to do, when to do it, and how to do it or else they will make bad choices.
After living almost three quarters of a century, I have come to the realization that Capitalism and our Free Market Enterprise system is COMPLETELY INAPPROPRIATE for Americans. Capitalism has allowed 20% of the population to live a wealthy lifestyle while the remaining 80% live a lifestyle that is substantially less than what they deserve.
- We don't need athletes that are multi millionaires
- We don't need actors/actresses that are multi millionaires
- We don't need musicians and singers that are multi millionaires
- We don't need CEO's that are multi millionaires
- We don't need physicians that are multi millionaires
- We don't need public officials that are multi millionaires
It is the responsibility of THE WEALTHY to not just take care of their family but the rest of the population. Their wealth should be shared with the rest of the population. If they don't want to share their wealth, then they don't need to earn it... but, if they do earn it they should share it.
OUR GOVERNMENT should control ALL CORPORATIONS AND BUSINESSES on behalf of the rest of the population... and OUR GOVERNMENT should not allow the population to have CHOICES and FREE SPEECH.
SOCIALISM and quite possibly COMMUNISM is the only form of government that should be allowed in the United States so that it can take proper care of its citizens.
