Americans vs the Corporations

The word 'conservative' is not a good description of those Republicans who call themselves 'Conservatives'.

I am 'conservative': I believe "a stitch in time saves nine", "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure", etc. I'd rather pay a little in advance, rather than pray nothing bad happens and I have to pay down the road.

When something bad does happen, the Republicans want to blame the victim. I only blame myself, for not having foreseen - or nipped in the bud - these chronic problems.

Republicans of today want to profit from their lack of planning. Not only do they fail to pay for prevention, they also want to profit from the expensive "fix".

But the Democrats are also interested in changing nothing, to keep their Corporate campaign contributions and "perks". And they need the Corporate contributions because it costs so much to put ads in the Media.

The system in America is really screwed up. The top-level politicians and media have been captured by major corporations. The media doesn't want to report it, and the politicians don't want to regulate it. The Washington narrative is "Democrat vs Republican", but it should really be "Americans vs the Corporations".
