WE DO NOT HAVE A DEMOCRACY FORM OF GOVERNMENT. Our founders hated the democracy (mob rule) form of government. I am so sick of people using Democracy and America in the same sentence.

"Why do we allow that to continue?"

Because no decent person is in charge anymore. The systems allows only selfish scumbags to rise to the top. Decent people starting at the bottom get either corrupted, blackmailed or get out before there soul is destroyed. It is systematic.

The system itself is now more powerful than the people working in it. I can't see how the current system can ever be reformed successfully. It seems everything has to collapse first and a fresh start under a new paradigm will bring back decency one day.

This will take decades if not centuries. Accepting that, frees up our energies that are concerned with this and can redirect our energies to what really matters: To find our real self and the happiness and contentness that comes with that.

The materalistic-scientific-greed-and-power path is stuck in a dead end and will die. Let it die. It's ok. I don't need it.
