John Washington III Calls the Political System a Joke and Urges Americans to Question the Entire System
In a TWA Community post, John Washington III argued that both parties operate under the same political system - and that voters should question the system itself, not only each other.
John Washington III is calling the political system "a joke" and urging Americans to question the entire system. In a post addressed to the American people, the Democratic Party, the Republican Party and every government official in the country, John Washington III asked how long Americans will continue allowing a political system to control their lives, exercise power over them and take their hard-earned money without questioning how that power is being used.
Both parties, John Washington III wrote, operate under the same political system: both participate in passing laws, collecting taxes, creating regulations and exercising governmental authority over the American people. If both are supposed to be fighting for the people, he asked, why do so many Americans continue to feel they are the ones being taken advantage of? "Why are we always arguing about Democrats and Republicans instead of questioning the system both parties operate under?" he wrote - asking who is really benefiting, who is really being represented, and who is actually holding officials accountable.
John Washington III wrote that every election season brings the same promises - to fight for the people, protect their rights, lower their taxes and change the system - and then the same result after the election, regardless of which party holds office. He stated plainly that he is a member of the Democratic Party, and wrote that this does not mean he will pretend everything the Democratic Party does is right.
