Afghanistan votes for a parliament today. There are 5800 candidates running for 669 seats. The elected will be paid hard dollars by the US, Britain and NATO. What will the voters get?
Per capita yearly Afghan income is app. $ 200 . Democracy needs wealth. Without wealth to distribute/redistribute why would anyone vote their own self-interest? Who can afford to pay taxes? What programs will the new government initiate or afford?
Of course these are questions that would get in the way of empire and it's client states that are being bred to consume.
