we're literally one Supreme Court justice away from the country becoming the christian taliban
capitalism doesn't need democracy, MANY countries prove that, they even prefer knowing who to bribe to get exactly what they want

look its just a standard transaction fee set to market rates (if you are a ferenghi)The failure mode you're observing in the US is that one partisan hack can write a memo in the correct linguistic style, submit it to a council with a majority of other partisan hacks, and like magic anything can become legal or illegal, because everything was done in the correct linguistic style. Actual practice does not matter. There are lots of examples of this over the last two years, perhaps the case against the 14th amendment is a good starting point to see how this works.
And an equal number in your country. Do not lecture Americans on freedom and virtue. Your country has its share of shortcomings, your economy structured to a higher degree to benefit a class of oligarchs. Your politicians are liars and thieves like any other. Wait your turn.
