«Democracy» for only oligarchs

By Jose M. Lopez Sierra – Puerto Rico

The United States’ (US) «democracy» is not to benefit 100% of its citizens. If it were, why would 40 million US citizens be living today in poverty, and 201 million living from paycheck to paycheck? Please click on this link to learn more about this: https://youtu.be/gW8EyV_jsr8

The fact that 9 of the 10 richest men in the world are US citizens, while 99% of us are excluded from the so-called «American Dream» means that the US is a plutocracy.

The US has never complied with international law, because that would hinder US’ oligarchs from making as much money as possible. 

That is why the US provoked a proxy war against the Russian Federation in Ukraine, and why it is supporting the genocide against the indigenous people of Palestine against international law. 

Moreover, the US has consistently refused to comply with 42 United Nations’ resolutions demanding the immediate return of Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. And in the meantime, 6 million Puerto Ricans have abandoned our national territory (gentrification), and half of the 3 million people living in Puerto Rico live in poverty.

The US saying that it is the champion of democracy doesn’t make it true. Only 28% of US citizens are satisfied with our government. Conversely, and contrary to the US’ claim that China is autocratic, over 90% of Chinese are satisfied with their government. The People’s Republic of China has never boasted of being the champion of democracy, although it has a legitimate right to do so. China has already eradicated poverty since 2020, despite having 4 times the US’ population! 

«Democracy» for only oligarchs is correctly called plutocracy.

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.
