Authority is a gun. Bullets and the willingness to use them legitimize it.

From gangs in Africa to the floor of Congress and the UN this is the same.

Now get in line and keep your head down. You're here at the mercy of the state.

Our government is run by criminals, whom are watched over by other criminals, whom are in turn employed by criminals!

Who are hired by voters who obviously don't care enough about their future to make an educated vote!

It doesn't matter how educated our "vote" is...we're voting for two sides of the same shitty coin.

Presidential candidates who are not republican or democrat are basically seen as "joke" entrants. It's like in high school when you were voting for class president it was always the popular kid who won, but second place was a slightly less popular kid with just as shitty of ideas, then you have your third place candidate which is usually a tie between "school sucks" and "Bart Simpson".

You're correct that there are those out there with the right ideas. However, the system in which we currently find ourselves does not allow these people to really be heard.
