The American people have become completely disconnected from their own government which is supposed to be "Of the People By the People". The visible government comprised of Congress, the Administration and the Judiciary are merely ceremonial and are used as tools to keep the masses in line by those who give them orders and set policy. The real government that runs everything from behind closed doors in abject secrecy is the Secret Shadow Government (SSG).

This is a long article and is written as a two-tiered piece. Those short of time can read the bold print and pass over the rest, and then finish with the conclusion. Many thanks to my sources, some still living but most passed. None of the novel information included is associated with Veterans Today in any way. I do not enjoy writing this type of article for a number of reasons not appropriate to be discussed here. But I do feel an obligation to get this information out. ]
When you stop and ask what the average American man or woman what they think about their government, the typical answer you get is that it is not responsive to their needs.
And many will also state further that they believe that instead of serving the needs of the common man the government appears to be more concerned with serving its own needs, that is the needs of the elected politicians themselves and wealthy, powerful, elite special interests they represent.
You will also often hear resentment expressed about the USG continuing to embark on expensive foreign wars and its doling out billions of dollars to the leaders of foreign nations as foreign aid while not adequately providing for the American taxpayers who provide the funds used in the first place.
Politicians are elected by social contract, a sacred trust that is best summarized as this: “If we entrust you with power to rule over us and lead us, we expect you to represent our interests and obey your Oath of Office to uphold the US Constitution. You need to make laws which represent our interests as We The People and not on the behalf of special interest groups or the wealthy elites.”
Right now if you ask, most middle-aged Americans will respond that their government is failing them at all levels and has not fulfilled this basic social contract they have been entrusted with when they are elected and allowed to assume political office.
And you will frequently be told that there seems to be no more Rule of Law in America, especially for the wealthy, powerful elites. But that strict enforcement of thousands of laws, even very specific hair splitting ones enforced only to restrict and keep the common man down and take away his basic freedoms which are supposed to be guaranteed by the US Constitution.
Many will tell you that there appears to be no way for the common man to adequately address grievances to the government at any level, nor any reason to believe that government officials even give a damn about the common man at all.
Many view most elected officials as blatant two-faced liars and sociopaths that have become more concerned with feathering their own beds and little more than high priced political whore for sale to the wealthiest special interest groups and lobbyists.
Some political researchers will tell you that many Members of Congress are very motivated to play to special interests in order to obtain “outside income” from lucrative corporate director appointments, fat honorariums, and revolving door jobs including the typical fat K-Street lobbying positions they can get upon leaving office.
Once they are elected, take their Oath of Office, and are sworn and seated, they abandon We The People that elected them.
The course they take after being seated is best described a “Complete Disconnect” from We The People who elected them, the folks that they are obligated to represent.
