Correct. The thing that you've got to remember is that we get the government we're prepared to tolerate. And right now, the government we tolerate is run by two competing gangs of fascists. The Republicans want it as a permanent system of government and the Democrats, (like Hitler curiously enough) consider it to be a transitional stage in the attainment of socialism. And as long as the majority of people are more interesting in crap like American Idol than they are in doing the heavy lifting needed to run a government, it's going to stay that way. -- "Implications leading to ramifications leading to shenanigans."
