The Dictator
Pt I
Why are you guys so anti dictators?
Imagine if America was a dictatorship.
You could have 1% of the people have
all the nation' s wealth
You could help your rich friends get richer by cutting their
taxes, and bailing them out when they gamble and lose.
You could ignore the needs of the poor for health care
and education.
Your media would appear free, but would secretly be
controlled by one person and his family
You could phones. You could torture foreign
prisoners. You could have rigged elections. ‘foo could
lie about why you go to war.
You could fill your prisons with one particular
racial group, and no one would complain.
You could use the media to scare the people into
supporting policies that are against their interests.
I know this is hard for you Americans to
imagine, but please try.
