In a real
democracy, citizens vote for whomever represents their views. In a fake
democracy, oligarchs control the two major political parties, so that whoever
wins, only the oligarchs win. Please click on this link for more: https://youtu.be/SkhlFp3suWE
Is the United
States (US) government representing the 99% of its citizens, when today 38
million of them live in poverty, and 60% live from paycheck to paycheck? Or,
are the oligarchs the only ones being represented by our government, when 9 of
the 10 richest men in the world are Americans? Do you know that the US only makes
up less than 5% of the world’s population? That means that there is only one of
the 10 richest men in the world who represents the 95% of the world’s
population. That’s a lot of US imperialism!
Speaking of
that, the US has consistently refused to comply with 42 United Nations’ (UN) resolutions
demanding that it immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto
Ricans. https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1w/k1wb1xdn6i https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k15/k154ku9q8x
President
Obama is today criticizing Trump for calling Puerto Rico an island of garbage.
The fact of the matter is that Obama did nothing to comply with those numerous
UN’s resolutions to decolonize Puerto Rico. On the contrary, he signed the
Oversight Fiscal Control Board to impose even more austerity on Puerto Ricans
in Puerto Rico. How could a colony that is exploited exclusively for the US Empire
acquire a debt? It can only via the US’ “Rules Based Order”.
Are you
aware that two thirds, 6 million, of Puerto Ricans live away from our national territory,
and that half of those living in Puerto Rico live in poverty? Are you aware
that more Puerto Ricans died in the Vietnam War, than any of the other soldiers
of the 50 states of the Union? It’s not that Puerto Ricans are more patriotic
than those of the 50 states, it’s that Puerto Ricans are more economically
deprived, due to 126 years of US colonialism!
Dr. Jill Stein
has on her platform the abolition of US imperialism, and that’s why the Democrats
and Republicans want her out of the presidential race. They, however, are not being
democratic about that. That’s exactly the point!
Imperialism
is not democracy!
