Laws do not apply to the élite. No limit on corporations to promote or to punish public officials at every level. Indefinite detention. Liberal use of tasers. Resource extractors writing environmental bills. Criminal bankers being bailed out of financial ruin instead of jail. Public admission of "jobless recovery". Discretionary spending freeze. No bid contracts. Massive privatization of the public trust. A never ceasing array of cheap political tricks.
