The erosion of democracy and the narrowing of electoral choice in the U.S. are detrimental to most any issue, from the economy and health care to foreign wars.
It gives us a "POLITOCRACY" !!!
Online references to "politocracy" come closest to depicting our current U.S. political paralysis which is generated by the stranglehold of the two-party duopoly largely controlled by the corporate money which dominates the media and our election process.
It forms the "Special Interest Groups/Lobbyists" that pick our "major" candidates; our nominees, how and when we vote under what method they like, ....they even count the votes for you.
Media Bias in a "Politicracy"
"Media bias is often used in reference to the mainstream media: the network news, cable news, most city newspapers and numerous periodicals.
Examples of those organizations on the liberal left include CBS, NBC,
ABC, CNN, MSNBC, The New Your Times, The Washington Post, the Boston
Globe, the Nation, Progressive and the New Republic.
Examples of such organizations on the conservative right include Fox
News, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Times and The National
Review. Historical political polling data reveals that the
vast majorities of journalists identify themselves as liberals and
donate to liberal political candidates. The evidence suggests that there
are far more liberal left leaning news/information outlets
than conservative right leaning news/information outlets."
"But Media Bias
occurs in other “forms” as well, specifically television programming and
full length popular films. How does such bias come out
in these mediums? Ask yourself the following questions: How often are
American corporations vilified? (Almost always) Have you ever watched a
movie or television programs in which the American
corporate characters are the “good guys?” (Never) Are the American
corporate characters the “bad guys”? (Almost always) And who are the
good guys? The Lawyers, the Journalists, the Professors, the
individual striking out against evil within the corporation, the
military or the Central Intelligence Agency."

Resisting The Progressive Politocracy
"FREEDOM VERSUS POLITOCRACY......""The freedom takers of the Politocracy are on the march, and we must resist them!
They’re not RINOs, they are GOProgs! They are like DemProgs.
Then there are the Free Republicans, that’s US, we’ve been against all forms of slavery, racial division, class warfare, and centralized (corporate/party/state) control by the many over the few since the beginning, when we were called Whigs!"
