Hey, 'Muricans, how come we need to pressure every company into compliance for you?

    Do you really think any average citizen has any say in this whatsoever?

    Yes. You're a democracy, right? Right?

    No, we're a republic.

    A true democracy would empower each of us to do as you say, but that's not what's here.

    Our republic is quite corrupt due to greed and power, as well... Not as corrupt as many countries out there, mind you, but it's alot worse than it should be.

    We're starting to resemble a corporatocracy in many ways these days as a result of all this.
