Armies of Lawyers Gear Up for Election Battles

I think that it is offical that any delusion that we are actually a democracy is fading very very fast. I think that there needs to be a new kind of government if we are going to continue to govern large masses of people in the information age. Clearly the current system does not work. There maybe easy temporary answers, such as gettin rid of the winner take all electory college system, but this does not address the biggest problem. That captalism is not compatable with democrazy. You cannot both protect the rights of the individual and the rights of the corporation. One will eventually infringe upon the other. And because to become an elected offically in a large society requires large amounts of money, our elected officals will continual side with the money they need to maintain job security. (IE: Big Business) At least in the past elected officals had to pay slight attention to the people to get thier votes. But now with "Armies of Lawyers" they don't even need the votes of the people.

WE ARE DOOMED!
