RE: The Transition from Slavery to Freedom
There is nothing wrong with having elected representatives,as long as the election is fair and transparent,and the elected official truly represent the people,not certain interests.
It is utterly impossible for "government" to represent you. Ever. If it actually represented you, it could only do what YOU have the right to do, and would have no right to tax or control YOU at all. The propaganda about ruling classes "serving the people" is, and has always been, a lie designed to keep the subject class from resisting.
It is impossible in the US,but look around! It does work elsewhere! I really don't have time to cite all my examples,but another day I'll be happy to discuss them!
Every government is a ruling class. Why do you believe it's impossible in the US but not in other places? The only difference between the ruling class in the US and other places is the amount of oppression and extortion they commit. They are still ruling classes that pretend to have the right to forcibly control society.
They only worship money in the US,that's why.In many other countries they still respect life too.
