Both Political Parties are Just Platforms to Sell Fear

I watch people debate every single day on Facebook. Facebook is essentially Twitter, but with less tweets and more words. Anyways; political debates go like this, **You are wrong, I am right**, and then you see a bunch of other people jump in and gang up on the other person and tell them they are wrong and the other person is right. Some people will actually attempt to have a discussion and that is usually shut down.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>Politics is about fear, politics is about money, and politics is about power. The wealthy will convince you that the other party will ruin your chances of becoming wealthy, when in reality they just don't want you to become wealthy. There is no point in being wealthy when the majority of the people in this country are struggling as it is.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>The wealthy don't want that, nor do they want you to climb the socio-economic ladder. They don't want the poor to thrive, they want the poor to be on welfare and not thrive. This is why you see most **Elites** Never do anything for the poor unless they have to do it and even then it is all about getting as much money back as possible.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>Do you really think Presidents and **elites** actually care about the public, or do you think they just care about themselves. Look at every single President we have had, did they really do anything to help the people? A select few actually did things for the people, but it has always been a cash grab.<br><br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>\---------------------------<br><br>\>Trump has millions of people brainwashed into thinking he actually cares about the people. The only thing Trump cares about is money, it is why he is running for President again. Just think about all the money he is going to get from his **campaign** and **advertisements**. Hes a Billionaire and needs more money? No wonder the middle class and poor hate each other, were all too stupid to see that it is about the wealthy and the poor.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>\>I don't like Biden or Sanders, but Trump is literally the worst candidate I have ever seen. Trump is just a puppet for the wealthy, he is not the **People's Champ**. Trump is going to put this country in even more debt, and he is not **draining the swamp**, hes just adding a bunch puppet politicians that will help him make more money.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>\>Hillary and Bill Clinton have also stole millions of dollars from the American people. The only thing they did was convincing you that they cared about you, and you believed it. Every single President has done that, and every single politician has done that to convince you to vote for them.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>\>The wealthy don't even pay taxes, why should we have to? They don't care about us, nor do they want to help us. They want to keep us poor, they want to keep us in debt, and they want to keep you fearful.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>\>You want real change? Stop paying taxes, stop voting for the lesser of two evils, and stop listening to the media. Politicians don't control the message, the wealthy control the message. The Media controls the message. They don't want us to thrive, nor do they want us to flourish.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>\> If you think that voting actually matters, then you are sadly mistaken. The media controls what information you get, and your vote doesn't actually matter. The **electoral college** chooses who becomes President, not you or me. Your vote is irrelevant.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>\>The **electoral college** is irrelevant, and if this actually was a democracy they would eliminate it. If this was a democracy you would vote for someone that actually cares about the people. You are literally voting for who you think is the better of the two evils, and sometimes you are picking the lesser evil and sometimes you are picking the extreme evil, but in the end no matter who you vote for it is not going to change anything.<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>\> **Democracy is dead, thank you all for participating.**
