The Most Powerful People in America

Source: World News Trust


'(World News Trust) -- They are not the rich and superrich, nor the politically powerful running the two-party plutocracy, nor the greedy heads of banking and finance companies, and certainly not the media moguls and bloviating pundits. The most powerful people are U.S. American consumers who account for more than 70 percent of the economy.  It is exactly now, when the economy is in the toilet, that consumers hold the maximum power.  So why are we the people still deluding ourselves that the path to a better future rests on electing a new president?

 

We are suckers, conditioned by decades of clever marketing and advertising to believe the lies of politicians, and worst of all to believe that elections and our votes provide us with power.  Wrong.  Our real power can only be manifest through our spending dollars...'
