Princeton study as a warning to Europe: US is no longer a democracy
« on: April 27, 2015, 10:15:32 AM »
Do you agree?

A recent study at Princeton University comes to an astonishing result: The US is no longer a democracy, because political decisions no longer serve the needs of citizens, but the interests of a small economic elite. The findings are also important in terms of foreign policy: If there are conflicts - such as those against Russia - escalate, it is the US government not to protect the interests of the American people, but hard-hitting commercial considerations.

The whole article by the German Economic Press.

Been that way since 1776, at least.

Right, they mean Democracy in the sense that individuals have a say in what goes on at the top.

The study is not shocking.

interesting find.  several European drafts, including the BBC.  only a few smaller houses in the US covered it...

Looks like the US news didn't think this important enough to comment on?
