how can Washington change the 1% if the 1% owns/is Washington (which we all knew, so that's nothing new...)

The only way is to blow it all up to pieces: white house, capitol, pentagon, banks, etc. That's my solution. Start from scratch. It will hurt, hurt real bad. Cost many lives.

But insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome.... So, if our presidents and representatives are owned by the 1%, why expect that electing new presidents and representatives the same way as we've done over the past will change anything. It will change NOTHING. Its insane to expect change by doing the same thing that never changed anything over and over again.
