Does this look like democracy?

By Jose M. Lopez Sierra – Puerto Rico

The United States (US) says that it is the «champion of democracy». Please click on the following link to witness what that democracy looks like: https://youtu.be/RpeuqQXmlI0

While the People’s Republic of China, accused by the US as being authoritative, has already eradicated poverty despite having 4 times the US’ population, 40 million Americans live in poverty, and 201 million live from paycheck to paycheck.

While the US says that it supports Taiwan’s inalienable right to self-determination and independence, it has consistently refused to comply with 42 United Nations’ resolutions demanding that it immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans.

And while only 28% of US citizens are today satisfied with our government, over 90% of Chinese are satisfied with theirs. 

Capitalism is incongruent with democracy, because the goal of capitalists is to extract as much profit as possible. And that is why the US moved its industries abroad to take advantage of a cheaper workforce, without caring about the impoverishment of its own citizens.

With this reality, and the fact that 9 of the 10 richest men in the world are US citizens, the US is the undisputed champion of plutocracy. 

Americans have a nightmare wakeup call!

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.
