yeah totally the piracy of the parliamentary system, parliament as
constituted in our capitalist global societies exists to serve the interests
of capital, the social relationship of exploitation. As President of Brazil
Lula said, we're in government but we're not in power (meaning the
multi-nationals and global finance are) As our beloved new leader Cameron
says: '...governments themselves have less power (and less money) and people
empowered by technology have more?' The trendy 'Big Soceity' localisation
agenda, which boils down to paying more tax and providing services as
volunteers, while we bail out the bankers... socialism for the rich!
