The US Federal Reserve System worked so well, why not? Heck, banks own it all and we pay them for our own money, in a sense. Usury has never been so good.
If we ever could go to the root of the problem and follow the money, as a people, we would see that our partisan distractions are merely a skin on a beast. But no. That's too radical to even consider. It's the time and energy consuming dynamo of the the two-party system that keeps us enthralled and manages to get us to ignore the old adage: Follow the money.
We can play at any level. We can get hot and emotional about any of the pre-packaged dualisms on the table. You bet. We WON'T get to the point and the core of the issue behind it though.
If the LOVE of money is the root of all evil, then who or what are those who control the very source of the money itself?
When there are elite bankers calling the shots, then it who is in office is only a secondary factor to me. When the bottom-line and profit is God, I don't care what personal beliefs are espoused or how the media portrays it to me.
Follow the money. That is the Hydra. Chop off what you want, but you really need to get to the head in this game and then ... well ... something amazing in the way of REAL change could happen. Until then, well energy is easily diverted and wasted when experts know how to direct it.
