Yes. 100%. Weve decided upon a system of currency fueled by perpetual growth through imperialistic loan/defense agreements. This dictates every single trade treaty and foreign policy (overt and covert) weve done for the last 6 decades. No one elected can simple change it. This involves wall st, and why a bailout was mandatory: Though it’s a bedrock American principle that citizens can steer their own government by electing new officials, Glennon suggests that in practice, much of our government no longer works that way. In a new book, “National Security and Double Government,” he catalogs the ways that the defense and national security apparatus is effectively self-governing, with virtually no accountability, transparency, or checks and balances of any kind. He uses the term “double government”: There’s the one we elect, and then there’s the one behind it, steering huge swaths of policy almost unchecked. Elected officials end up serving as mere cover for the real decisions made by the bureaucracy. bostonglobe/ideas/2014/10/18/vote-all-you-want-the-secret-government-won-change/jVSkXrENQlu8vNcBfMn9sL/story.html
