I will now list the reasons for why I believe the good ol' USA is today clearly a banana republic.
First and foremost, we are corrupt. We all know this. No sane person would deny it. Laws and policy are for sale to the highest bidder. Power grants immunity to the rule of law. Money buys legislation.
Our media is propaganda. Whether we are talking white helmets, or more subtle propaganda in what is not said, and the story not told, our media has become the equivalent of Baghdad Bob screaming there are no tanks in Baghdad.
I would be happy to give specific examples to support each of these claims for those interested in honest discourse and debate.
I will also be happy to mock and anger troll those who are not.
