How the fu*k do you think we got here? The system works exactly how it’s supposed to, and it’s not going to change without a whole lot of upheaval. Independence is a joke and so is your little vote. It’s not going to change a damn thing. The sheeple believe in the system. It’s only when it fails to deliver their illusion, they will start to question how they are being farmed.

If there is one thing that history shows us, until things gets bad enough, the sheeple don’t want to know.

Your vote is simply an endorsement the system is working the way that it should. You don't need my vote to prove what I already know.

Don't fall off your soapbox

I’m no politician, so I’ll leave the soapbox to those misguided fools who believe that real change comes via the ballet box. It’s obviously worked thus far. Oh now I remember. It will be different with independence. Oh how I look forward to meeting all these selfless Scottish politicians working to better the lot of the proletariat.

“It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried.”
Winston Churchill

Don't hold your breath.
The only things your less likely to see are
1 The Scottish proletariat demanding bottom up transparent accountable government, and
2 The British state providing it.

At the time, the above was said you could make the argument that we lived in a real democracy. With political parties that actually stood for something.

Now Independence and democracy are just throw away words used to keep the illusion going.

There is so little difference between political parties the only way to separate them is with a rizla paper. The political class has formed themselves into an over privileged boy's club with the sole intent of serving the wealthy elite.

There is nothing resembling democracy in this country anymore, it’s only the words that are left. And an "independent" Scotland will be no different.

Would that be the honest, reliable politicians that are just waiting in the wings for your revolution to sweep them into office?
All talented people with nothing but good in their hearts and no thought of self renumeration, who won't actually be eaten alive on the world stage?
Do any exist or were you planning to grow them in a lab?

Now I know you've lost the plot

At least, the political parties held positions that people could identify with. At present, the labour party is far right of Thatcher, and the lib dems are joined at the hip with the Tories. Talk about losing your way.

And now Salmond wants an exclusive club of his own through independence.

It was just easier to bullshit the masses in those days. Don't be looking back with rose tinted glasses, Skull.
That's for us thick wee tartan people, not the educated and enlightened elite such as yourself.

What happened to political parties being driven by differing ideologies?

Still wondering where you're going to find these saintly people to run your new order?

So most of the cabinet are millionaires. If that's a shock to you, then you are in a minority.

BTW being a millionaire these days isn't as big a deal as it once was.

A system with the proper checks and balances doesn't require saintly people to represent the public, and that's the point.

The system will only deliver the outcome it is geared to deliver.

Have you noticed how you constantly take what I have written out of context to make a stupid point?
