Money as God?
Donna Williams
March 09, 2007
Some people in the non-USA world view America as a whole as having money as its God.
If the president is the largest power in people's lives next to God
and if they give him the power of life and death as they believe God has
then what do we make of the fact that George Bush got into power as a result of a record 100 million dollar election campaign, the most expensive in world history.
100 million dollars
money as God
a president with the power of life and death
its worth thinking about
for the system to be less corrupt
less psychopaths or sociopaths buying their way to having the power of life and death for millions of people (over half a million Iraqis have died since the Iraq war and over half a million before that as a result of sanctions)
then nobody should be able to
buy the presidency
buy the networks
buy the journalists
the courts
There may come a day where any governments stripping citizens of millions for its own election will be a moral crime.
There may come a day where any governments robbing other countries for its own business ventures will smell so bad that no amount of media whitewash can hide the stench.
When that day comes, the world will respectfully look to these changes as an example that even super power governments can get recover from moral illness.
