America's fundamental change

[Digital_Trucker]

No need to apologize, Jeremy. This country is not a democracy at all. It is a Republic. Our government is the same as any government on this planet. It is run by human beings, and as such, is fatally flawed. If anyone can think of one, I'd like to know which government on this planet is perfect and totally reflects the feelings and wishes of its average citizen.

Associating the characteristics of a people with the actions of it's government is dangerous. It's been done many times, and, evidently continues unabated. Using that type of logic, the average German citizen under Hitler would have been a megalomaniacal racist. I don't believe that was the case any more than I believe that the average American is whatever the hell George Bush is.

Whether you want to believe it or not, all governments are the same. They are run by out of touch, elite, power hungry people. It's the nature of government. The power attracts the type of people that you see leading us now. The concept of a "public servant", one who strives to do what's best for their people, is a thing of the past.

Edit : As for the graphics not degrading the written work inside the magazine, I agree. The written work inside of any publication isn't worth the paper it's printed on.
