Neoliberal Elections

Neoliberal Elections Actually my hyperbolic suggestion is not that new apart from the vote casting honesty it might pursue as it is known to democracy with all its respect due no more veils from rich over poor to give you a clue We have cell phones and finger prints for transactions iris photos and soon microchips for regular satisfaction in commerce we trust so there might be some traction to link consumer sales with how we vote in elections How many ballots we have to establish who is the winner must tie to overall purchases what we spend on our dinner and luxuries cars perfume Democracy 101 for the beginner proportionally less say when our wallets are much thinner The big spenders will directly determine who’s in charge they can simply make more crosses so no change at large far fewer concerns no hoodwinking for those on the marge only truthfulness in that some do not rule as they are ‘savage’ 06th September 2016
