The "balance of power" a lie we teach our kids |
|
Remember that drawing of a triangle in civics class that showed the the balance of power between the three branches of the federal government, well it seems to me, that the balance is gone. That being the case, we should not inflict that myth on our children. We have moved to a "post democracy" phase, where government and corporations work together for all of us. Democracy was messy and time consuming. Think of the children.
All hail our new Ant overlords!

In both 3rd and 4th, I had to tell her that lie; it made me feel really stinky.
