On February 18th<\/sup>, Gallup bannered “Record High Name Government as Most Important Problem<\/strong><\/span>“<\/a> and reported that, out of a list of 47 national \u201cproblems,\u201d the top ten that were selected (and the percentage of respondents who selected each) were:<\/span><\/p>\n More than a third of Americans think that \u201cThe government\/Poor leadership\u201d is the \u201cTop Problem\u201d in America.<\/span><\/p>\n That\u2019s almost twice the percentage who listed the second-from-top option, \u201cImmigration,\u201d as being this.<\/span><\/p>\n In turn, the third-most-frequently chosen option was \u201cHealthcare,\u201d mentioned by a third as many respondents as listed \u201cImmigration.\u201d (And healthcare in the United States is the worst and by far the costliest in all of the developed nations<\/strong><\/span><\/a>; so it\u2019s a system that\u2019s extraordinarily rotten and corrupt<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, and thus obviously an enormous U.S. problem.) (And immigration wasn\u2019t high on these lists until Trump\u2019s Presidency, which raised it from virtually nowhere \u2014 such as 5% in 2005<\/a><\/strong><\/span> \u2014 to 19% today; so its being high on the list now is due only to the propaganda and not to any reality.)<\/span><\/p>\n Consequently, that this Government does not represent the American people<\/em>, is a fact which is beyond any reasonable doubt.<\/span><\/p>\n How validly can one call such a country a \u201cdemocracy,\u201d if \u201cdemocracy\u201d is being defined as \u201cgovernment that represents the people<\/strong><\/span>\u201d<\/a>?<\/span><\/p>\n Here are other indications that the U.S. is, in truth, a dictatorship:<\/span><\/p>\n America has the world\u2019s highest percentage of its people in prison<\/strong><\/span><\/a> \u2014 the highest percentage in prison of any nation on the planet. If this means that it\u2019s a police-state, then the U.S. already is leading the world as being that. Every other nation can reasonably look down upon America as having the highest percentage of its residents being in prison, and this American condition is entirely inconsistent with the country\u2019s being a democracy. Of course, the U.S. also allows the death penalty, but that punishment is rarely imposed now, because of the international embarrassment.<\/span><\/p>\n On 18 July 2018, Dave Lawler at Axios headlined “Comparing the popularities of leading world leaders<\/strong><\/span>\u201d<\/a>, and he reported that in the latest available polling within top nations, the job-approval of heads-of-state were: 55% Justin Trudeau (CA), 52% Shinzo Abe (JA), 48% Angela Merkel (GE), 43% Donald Trump (US), 40% Emmanuel Macron (FR), and 25% Theresa May (UK). Clearly, UK doesn\u2019t now have an effective democracy, when its leader has only one-quarter of the public approving of her performance. That\u2019s way<\/em> below 50%. Macron\u2019s 40% job-approval in France could also indicate that France is a dictatorship. Trump likewise. The others probably aren\u2019t, or aren\u2019t as much, dictatorships.<\/span><\/p>\n Earlier-polled national job-approval ratings<\/strong><\/a> showed that the national job-approvals of 7 leaders were, in order starting from the highest: Putin (83%), Trudeau (63%), Obama (56%), Merkel (54%), Italy\u2019s Renzi (40%), France\u2019s Hollande (12%), and Brazil\u2019s Temer (11%).<\/span><\/p>\n Also earlier-polled were 10 leaders, and they rated, top to bottom<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, within their respective nations: China\u2019s Xi, Russia\u2019s Putin, India\u2019s Modi, South Africa\u2019s Zuma, Germany\u2019s Merkel, Brazil\u2019s Roussef, America\u2019s Obama, Japan\u2019s Abe, UK\u2019s Cameron, and France\u2019s Hollande.<\/span><\/p>\n All of those ratings were, of course, within nations. All of those polls sampled people only about their own nation\u2019s leader. By contrast, approval-ratings worldwide<\/a> for 10 leaders showed them, in order from highest to lowest, to be: Merkel, Macron, Modi, May, Xi, Putin, Salman, Netanyahu, Rouhani, and Trump. But those ratings aren\u2019t relevant to the nations\u2019 degree of democracy or dictatorship.<\/span><\/p>\n The United States is the only country in the world that has been scientifically analyzed regarding its degree of dictatorship or else democracy, and the results were clear that it\u2019s a one-dollar-one-vote controlled country; it\u2019s not actually controlled on a one-person-one-vote basis; it\u2019s a dictatorship<\/a><\/strong><\/span>. In other words, it is an aristocracy \u2014 the richest rule here \u2014 it\u2019s not a democracy, of any type.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
