The Truth Never Told About The American Empire

In a free society there is no way you can prevent some people from acquiring power and wealth, and then abusing that power and wealth. Just as in a less free redistributive system those with power to declare what others can do and own would never remain impartial with the purest of motives. Power and wealth are eternal and unavoidable corrupting influences. There have been no exceptions and there never will be.
Sadly, I don't think there's a way out. Because there's only a few ways for elites to retain power. Through violence. And through bribery. Or a blend of the two. People are either subjects under some kind of whip, or they are grubbing cattle, feeding off of their fellow human beings. Or they are a little of both.
And I don't look to the "people" for a solution. They don't even WANT to know what is going on, instead clinging to one "ism" or another, shouting down one another, seeing the flaws in human nature in those they disagree with, but are willfully blind to their own shortcomings. At the end of the day, man is a clever animal. But, not so clever as to transcend certain problems.
