Ever since the days of Nazi propaganda governments everywhere have felt the need to teach us how to think in not so subtle ways. Should bureaucrats spend public money to buy advertising?

The original design of democracy was to have an elected body of representatives to consult with the people they represent and then report back to the legislative assembly and pass into law what was the agreed consensus.

Things go awry when there is no consensus and when the representatives are not representative of the electorate (a hung parliament).

Then came the emergence of lobby groups who have a vested interest in one thing or another (usually financial because they are captains of industry). For those people the concept of one person equals one vote is disproportionate. They command a lot of power in their field of control but are only mere mortals politically. Since they have plenty of money to go around the appealing idea is simply to buy votes. Hence one master of industry can now sway the votes of hundreds or thousands of electors.

Those captains of industry through their money control many go-between who work in advertising and public relations to advance their agenda. They control the media, the topics covered in the latest movies and if they could the curriculum in our schools.

The next step besides buying votes is to buy politicians. Everything is legit as long as you don't get caught. If you do, just one phone call to a person of influence whom you have formally compromised will bury the issue once and for all.

This is how the world runs in western democracies and then they are surprised when fledging governments in the Middle East can't shake off corruption or adopt a Westminster type of government (!)

Now the process goes full circle when governments themselves feel the need to waste public money to influence opinion. They have capitulated to the law of who shouts the loudest and has the most billboards.

Announcing a new phase: political correctness. Not content with running the country authorities now want to play God and preach their gospel of carbon footprints, tolerance to diversity, equal rights and imposing the views of minorities at the expense of the silent majority of law abiding citizens.

In the past governments had their own source of income through state monopolies such as utilities and some strategic institutions like some banks, defence suppliers and infrastructure.

Today governments are broke and print money to survive. They will soon capitulate to a world government with a single world currency and a single world religion.
