Washington Journal customarily hosts excellent call-in opportunities, but monopolized toward interests of the capitalistic hierarchical Establishment.  This is a disservice to the electorate.

Today was different with discussions relating to We The People.

The corruption legalized without being legitimized as highlighted by Citizens United that bribes politicians by big-money campaign donors, also has been abused to indoctrinate too many Americans into the fold of capitalism.  Capitalism is the opposite side of the coin from communism, both of which promote hierarchical interests while exploiting We The People.  

This has kept into positions of power the politicians who are possibly, as relates to character, the least among us.  Meanwhile……the best of Americans are forced into yeoman’s work to support such inferior people, as was the case in Medieval times.

Our educational system has been complicit to support for capitalistic hierarchical Establishment in indoctrinating students into the system to the extent that exorbitant debt saddles children as their initiation into so-called liberty and freedom into our system.  Meanwhile……..socialism is denigrated by capitalistic hierarchical Establishment that seems to be the chains placed upon students to have a curious pride in holding “Degrees from Institutions of Higher Learning”.

Just recently lights seem to turned on within the minds of some people who are inquiring into history as enforced by said institutions.  FACTually all institutions bear scrutiny.

(This brings to mind the Buddhist story of the man in the street searching on the ground for his lost keys.  A neighbor stopped to ask what he was doing and the man said, “I dropped my keys”.  After the 2 searched in the street for a while, the neighbor asked, “where were you when you dropped them?”  The man said, “I was inside my house”.  The neighbor asked the reason they were searching in the street.  The man said, “because there is more sunlight out here”.)

Possibly the answer to securing a semblance of democracy is in the hands of those who experienced having been disenfranchised by this system.  

Only recently as stated in the C-Span discussion above, some indoctrinated Americans are disengaging from the donor-sponsored politicians to the point that the turpitude of politicians in loyalty to big-money donors no longer implies voter loyalty to corrupt politicians.

It was bound to happen.  Breaking through to said voters has been a huge ocean liner to turn; but it may be happening finally.  In other words, the thoughtless campaign strategists and political Party sycophants who insisted that other voters needed to “hold noses and vote against one’s conscience”, were abjectly wrong.

It is better to vote for the Representative you want and lose than to vote for the Representative you don’t want and win.
