I think LH is right. He has summarized it well. The U.S. is fast becoming a"corporatocracy"
whereby elections are being bought and sold and privatized by voting machines owned by...guess who.....corporations. John Roberts with his Supreme Court Citizens United ruling has exacerbated the problem and done damage to our system of government. But the two Parties are different. There is no one in the GOP who has come out against the Iraq and Afghanistan debacles. There are Dems who have. That is a huge difference.

A Republican Administration would be a sell-out to malfeasant corporations and the Defense Contractors. The U.S. would be embroiled in a never-ending war and the Contractors would be making money from it with the GOP blessing. They would be in lock-step here. There are Dems who would buck this system. They are not as prevalent as I would like to see them be,
however, they are in the Democratic Party and not in the GOP.
