It is absolutely disgusting the way this so-called democracy has degenerated into perpetual warfare between the socialists and plutocrats. Even worse, traitors from both sides continuously cross and re-cross the battle lines. “Money can’t buy me love,” sang the Beatles, but it can buy an election anywhere at any time. Pick your pig-picking party or, better yet, take a ringside seat (you paid for it), watch all the drama queens duke it out and hope and pray that no one wins. The lesser of two evils still reeks to high heaven and, unfortunately, angels are not known to form super PACs.
