"The United States has entered the ranks of the failed states. One of the most remarkable manifestations of a failed state is that the criminals are all inside the government operating against the people, whereas in a normal state, the criminals are on the outside of the government, operating against it. So, we now have every manifestation of being a failed state, with the government in the hands of a few Wall Street gangsters."
–Paul Craig Roberts
"The banks - hard to believe in a time when we're facing a banking crisis that many of the banks created - are still the most powerful lobby on Capitol Hill. And they frankly own the place."
–Senator Dick Durbin
The Lobby owns everyone in politics, everywhere.
There is no longer any way to vote ourselves out of the current mess.
The self same Russian "oligarchy" we hear about in MSM op-ed is the self same oligarchy that owns our congress, courts, half of our military and has rendered any notion of integrity or elected representative self government laughable.
The fresh crop of republican congress people who will undoubtedly take a majority in congress BECOME PROPERTY OF THE ETHICS COMMITTEE FOR LIFE AS SOON AS THEY ARE SWORN IN.
Nothing will change.
Same shit, just a different color.
That Ethics Committee is a living breathing devil enshrined by law and controlled by The Lobby.
This unholy alliance is unbreakable.
A job in the capitol building is a suicide mission.
Relinquishing your integrity is the ONLY way you survive.
Piss them off and bad things will… WILL happen to you.
Trucks don't frighten them.
The Ethics Committee and The Lobby do.
