I try to read or skim articles, but I'm often pressed for time and I am willing to use a source even if I haven't verified it.

What's the point of Democracy(which America isn't) if there are no real choices? Is it still a Democracy if a few control the rules and choose the candidates? In my opinion, a Representative Republic run by an Oligarchy is hardly a free society.
