It Took Years for Washington to Reach an Irreparable Level of Corruption
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
There is no denying the facts. America’s federal government
has reached a level of corruption from which there is no return. I couldn’t
blame anyone for believing this situation began with Trump, but the truth is
far more sinister.
Fact: corruption and greed are synonyms. In the 1980’s
America began moving away from a nation where compassion, understanding, and a
simple desire to do the right thing in every situation into a nation where
profits became the priority and our people were left behind. In 2024, our
country has reached a situation where great wealth is protected by law enforcement,
the justice system, our military, and even ministers behind their pulpits. No
one in power or in possession of great wealth can be trusted.
ONE ENTIRE POLITICAL PARTY IS NOTHING BUT A TOOL FOR THE ONE
PERCENT
In 2024, the number of billionaires in the U.S. has reached
813. These ridiculously wealthy individuals have amassed power with the use of
their fortunes. In 1981 the richest people in America began buying members of
the House and Senate, and today, the entire right side of the aisle on Capitol
Hill belongs the those who call themselves Republicans.
If you believe the politicians, who claim that “America is
the greatest country in the world,” or that “America is the richest country in
the world,” you are too f**king stupid to be allowed to vote.
The United States is behind every developed nation in the
world in healthcare, education, human rights issues, social programs, and
quality of life for its people. Racism and bigotry are growing problems with no
solution in sight. America has never been a great nation, and I doubt it ever
will be.
Less than 10 percent of all Americans live in the “richest
country in the world.” One half of all Americans struggle in the low-income
level or below the poverty line. They live in a far different “America” than those
who own multiple mansions, yachts, million-dollar vehicles, and private airplanes.
Our elected officials, who once donated their time to their
country, are now members of the millionaire’s club. There is no legitimate “news”
in America. Credible journalists, who formerly made salaries equal to men and
women in middle management, now have salaries in the millions of dollars.
Nothing shows more corruption at all levels of government
than the fact that our government refuses to control “Greedflation.” Necessities:
food, utilities, gasoline, healthcare, and housing far exceed the incomes of
most Americans and especially our seniors on fixed incomes. America has become
an undesirable nation because it refused to place its people in priority number
one.
DONALD TRUMP’S PROJECT 2025 WOULD MAKE SLAVES OUT OF MOST AMERICANS
The Republican agenda for our nation’s future, written by
the Heritage Foundation will end the dream of our founding fathers. The dreams
of our founding fathers would be nothing but a memory, and the once respected
United States of America would be another third world country.
This election will decide whether or not America will
survive into the 21st century. A vote for Trump or any man and woman
calling themselves “Republican” is a vote against the future of those you love.
Vote Independently, and vote intelligently. It’s your
country, not for the super-rich or politicians.
