I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


Corruption is THE government/society- killer.

Just a placeholder for further ideas.

JD Vance comments about a president considered to be one of the most corrupt of all time. But, no, it wasn't Donald Trump. It was Richard Nixon, who, unlike Vance's boss, was never actually impeached but resigned before the House could vote on his charges.

The vice president suggested that if the Watergate scandal that led to the end of Nixon's presidency happened tomorrow, "It would be like a 12-hour news story." He added, "The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."

Oh, I see.

You're fighting a war against Nixon.

He's dead, man.

Let it go.

My idea of corruption goes beyond politicians personally enriching themselves. Maybe the term should be "parasitism": when the elite parasitize more than an economy can sustain.

But then, of course, I'd have to define "economy". MOST people, even supposed knowledgeable alt media commentators, routinely conflate financialism with the economy. Au contraire. Financialism is mostly just another form of parasitism.
