HOW TO WIN ELECTIONS AND MAKE A BUCK!
by Qatzel Ok
In a nation of absolutely selfish people who have no regard for anything like the "collective good," it's relatively easy to win elections and make a buck (lots of bucks!) for you and your allies.
All you have to do is promise to give one cent to 51% of the voting public while taking a dollar from the other 49%.
The absolutely selfish will all vote for "gaining one cent," while the others will vote against you... but lose.
Then you collect your money. And this should give you enough of a surplus to analyse data to search for the next election strategy (defining which 51% will get a penny).
I posit that this is basically how first-past-the-post democracy works... at its best.

The goal is to use Afghanistan to wash money out of the tax bases of the US and Europe through Afghanistan and back into the hands of a transnational security elite.
The goal is an endless war, not a successful war.
