Academics are beginning to publish on the ascendency of an oligarchy in the United States. Here is a story on a Princeton study that has just come out. After reading the story you can and should click through to get the actual study report. In it you will see that using the standard measures by which scholarship is conducted it is shown that we are no longer a! democracy, except in a limited sense. We are an oligarchy. I think it is very important to notice that this study has gotten virtually no coverage in corporate media.

A democracy in which over nine of every 10 people do not trust the government can not long endure. This is absolutely appalling. Click through to see the charts and tables which are very helpful.

Public Faith in Congress Falls Again, Hits Historic Low — 93 Per Cent of Americans Lack Confidence in Government
REBECCA RIFFKIN – The Gallup Organization

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Americans' confidence in Congress has sunk to a new low. Seven percent of Americans say they have “a great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in Congress as an American institution, down from the previous low of 10% in 2013. This confidence is starkly different from the 42% in 1973, the first year Gallup began asking the question.

5 political crises that are threatening to wreck the global economy and life as we know it

Thomas Mucha, Editor

GlobalPost, 14 June 2014

BOSTON — Hi, America. We need to talk.

While you’ve been obsessing over who was unhappy at Kim Kardashian’s Florentine wedding or where Pitbull got his mom-capris in Brazil (I know, right?), some serious things have gone down in the real world.

We’re talking wreck-the-global-economy, rewrite-history kinds of things.

LIST ONLY:

1. Iraq and Syria: Two conflicts beat as one
2. China vs. Japan: Asia’s next great war?
3. The rise of Europe’s far right
4. Russia vs. Ukraine (and the rest of Europe): Back in the USSR?
5. Washington, DC: A snake pit of vitriolic ineptitude

Better late than never.  Ghani won the election — now we need to see if the US Government will stand by our principles and help assure a legitimate count. See also the second headline, for an understanding of how Iran controlled the non-signing of the BSA in Iraq to create this situation. If Abdullah is fradulently election, I anticipate that he will NOT sign the BSA, this having been a condition for Iran's funding of his campaign and Karzai-Daudzai fraud.

Technocrat to Afghan Populist, Ashraf Ghani Is Transformed

By

NYT Asia Pacific, JUNE 11, 2014

KABUL, Afghanistan — When dealing with Western officials, Ashraf Ghani presents himself as the rare technocrat who possesses both the cultural savvy and practical expertise needed to put Afghanistan back on track if he is elected president in the runoff vote on Saturday.

After all, as Mr. Ghani readily reminds people, he has written a book titled “Fixing Failed States.”
