We have the Best Government Money Can Buy!

Who writes the laws in America?
NAFTA & GATT are thousands of pages long. They were written by Think Tanks funded by Tax-Exempt Foundations, established by protected Corporations, and signed by Politicians unread. So, who are the unseen law makers?

What motivates our elected officials?
I hear people say “My elected representative would not dare screw with my interests. He knows we would boot him out of office.” I’m afraid you failed to see it from his perspective: He is looking forward to retiring into a high paying cushy corporate board position as soon as he gets out of office. So, who is he more motivated to serve?

Some of these definitions for types of government seem a little too close for comfort:

Corporatocracy defines a government that is primarily influenced by agencies such as corporations, banks, oil companies, or the military-industrial complex. Today, of the 100 largest economies of the world, 51 are corporations. Many of pay little or no taxes. Globalization in many countries have led to a situation where the top 1% hold over 90% of the wealth.

Plutocracy is rule by the wealthy. Often in a Plutocracy the laws are skewed to make it difficult for the ordinary man to reach the level of wealth required to join the ruling class, while at the same time helping the wealthy elite maintain their status.

Kleptocracy (root: klepto+kratein = rule by thieves) is a term applied to a government that extends the wealth and power of the ruling class at the expense of the population. A kleptocratic government often goes beyond merely awarding the prime contracts and civil service posts to friends (a common feature of corrupt governments). They also create projects and programs at a policy level which serve the primary purpose of funneling money out of the treasury and into the pockets of the executives, with little if any regard for the logic, viability or necessity of those projects.

Khakistocracy refers to military rule of a country, often in collusion with the elite and business classes.

Fascism is a form of corporatism where government and business form a pact to work together and maintain the status quo for the benefit of those in the pact. Fascist governments forbid and suppress criticism and opposition to the government and the fascist movement.
