A Summit As Unreal As The "Democracy" It Defends

OUR HEROES FOUGHT FOR THE POOR AND THE OPPRESSED, OUR PEOPLE STILL IN BONDAGE.
National heroes day, a reflection on where we are and what our heroes fought for. Our country has become the haven for exploiters to invest and maximize profit as they wish with no protection or oversight from our government.
