The country has become a simulation of democracy. It principally exists for corporates and to further their interests, within the US and outside. Lobbying, regulatory capture, bankers, bailouts, a brazenly corrupt financial system, foreign policy warmongering, the security state, surveillance have been out of control for years now and show a state completely divorced from its citizens interests. Yet there is hardly a peep because there is no civic society. Structurally it seems the hatred between the various groups that form our society is so visceral and deep that a credible pushback is a near impossibility. Without any pushback what does one imagine happens? Entire sections of society have been thrown under the bus with hand waving and manufactured economic ideology. This is not how democracy works.
