My question wasn't facetious. It really is surprising how many people
do not realize the US is not a democracy. Never was. Wasn't even
intended to be one.


.... just maybe it's because you seem to want to ram democracy down
everyone's throat .

Tell me... do you consider Canada a democracy?

CM,

Our "Pledge's" 2nd sentence tell what kind of a government we have

It Is a REPUBLIC. It is a Democratic Republic and has been a pretty
successful Republic of the people for a very long time. In our time
there has been a change taking place.

It was never meant to be the private life time career for politicians.
Career Politician have gain enough control to become Rulers rather than
Representatives. As long as they can vote themselves wage increases, it
becomes a damn good job.

Jefferson envisioned a government modeled after the Greeks (Spartan) to
be exact, which elected representatives had to take turns serving, if
elected. They then returned to their private lives after serving. Geo
Washington did set an example when he voluntarily stepped down after
serving. This did, kind of, set the tone for sometime.

Time for me to get off the soap box. Think about when and why Colleges
started teaching Political Science as a Degree.

John Wayne

America's poor = mostly obese = too much food

America's poor = sedentary = own too many televisions

America's poor = own too many cars

America's poor are the richest poor in the world.

Tax the poor! Let them pay for their share of their burden on the rest of
us!
