Democracy or Plutocracy: Which do you prefer?
If the Republicans get their way, your preference won't matter.
Deifinitions:
Democracy:
1. Government by the people, exercized either directly or through elected representatives.
2. A poltical unit that has such a government.
3. Majority rule.
4. The principles of social equality and respect for the individual within a community.
Plutocracy:
1. Government by the wealthy.
2. A wealthy class that controls a government.
If WE do not insist on the Democracy, we WILL get the Plutocracy. If you know your history, then you'll recognize that soon you'll be eating cake (which was the word for bread in 18th century France).
Bon apetite!
