Citizens want services

By José M. López Sierra

All citizens want services from their government. What distinguishes a democracy, however, is when the government provides services to all of its citizens. Why is it a lie to say that the United States (US) is the champion of democracy? Please click on this link for more: https://youtu.be/3I6Tr4cZqCo

The US has 800 military bases around the world. The US provoked a war in Ukraine in order to weaken the Russian Federation, so that the US could steal her resources. The US is unconditionally supporting the artificial colonial settler state of Israel in its genocidal campaign against the indigenous people of Palestine with the support of the US Courts. These services are what the 1% of US citizens want from their government. That has caused the world to regard the US as the biggest threat to peace. And that is on the other extreme of being a champion of democracy!

99% of US citizens want services from our government that we are not getting. 38 million Americans today live in poverty. 60% of Americans are living today from paycheck to paycheck. The US was the epicenter of the Coronavirus pandemic. Two thirds of Puerto Ricans live outside of our national territory, and those who still live in Puerto Rico live in poverty. And, the US hypocritically claims that it supports Taiwan’s inalienable right to self-determination and independence, the US has consistently refused to comply with the 42 United Nations resolutions demanding that it immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans.

The reason why the US debt is so high, is because the US government refuses to tax oligarchs. That is why 9 of the 10 richest men in the world are US citizens, while the People’s Republic of China, the second largest economy in the world, has eradicated her poverty, despite having 4 times the US’ population. Therefore, the US is unquestionably an oligarchy.   

A real democracy must be strong enough to control its oligarchs from reversing democracy’s priority of people over profit.  

Voting for Biden or Trump is to maintain the US an oligarchy.

Nací en NYC. Me mudé a Puerto Rico en el 1980 donde eventualmente me convertí en independentista al ver que PR no se administra para los boricuas. Me retiré tempranamente de la pedagogía para luchar 24/7 por la descolonización de Puerto Rico a través de marchas pacíficas anuales y empujar a la ONU hacer su trabajo. Necesitaremos un tsunami de gente protestando permanentemente para obligar a USA a cumplir con la ley internacional que prohíbe el coloniaje.
