Of course, it's not only politicians.

Consider the M/I/C/$4a†-plex = military, industrial, Congress (US-speak for parliament); $ = banksters, 4 = 4th estate = MSM + PFBCs, 'a' = academia incl. think-tanks, † = the churches.

MSM + PFBCs = mainstream media + publicly financed broadcasters, like the AusBC.

No Church is properly 'pro-active;' along with all other killing, they should forbid military killing, (except in true self-defence = *not* Vietnam through Iraq to Syria, on to Iran etc.), and should excommunicate all who violate the do-not-kill commandment.

Add the I/J/Z-plex; illegitimate IL squats on genocidally ethnically-cleansed = improperly alienated, mainly Palestinian erstwhile legal owner/occupiers = ELO/Os' land/property = IL is an un-remedied "supreme international" crime-scene and *all* in the I/J/Z-plex (except any actively opposing) are guilty (some more = actual perpetrators, some less = accessories & apologists - even silence = complicity).

The above extends Eisenhower's MI-complex and describes the two worst rogue regimes = US & Zs; it encompasses the full 'leadership' of many countries and the world; where regimes cooperate with the two rogue regimes they make themselves SQSHsO = snivelling quisling sycophantic hangers-on.

Democracy is disabled by 1) a two-party lock; bipartisan = un- & anti-democratic, 2) deceived voters may not make fully informed voting choices, and 3) after being elected, representatives sell-out to $s and lobbies, including 5th columns. These disabled democracies have become tyrannies.

No dissent is tolerated from the tyrants' dictates, this fully explains the aggressive wars, with the benefit of seizing resources to 'harvest' the economic rent, plus denying competitors.

To 'stray' from the truth is to lie, to murder for spoil is psychopathic. The 'bad morality' the perpetrators embrace is that the self-designated 'strong' = most of the current <1%, *must* rip-off and kill all they can, since to *allow* themselves to be ripped-off and killed, means that the hapless victims are weak when compared to the psychopaths.

The proof is all around us; from Thatcher's TINA and Reagan's voodoo economics, neoliberalism and globalisation are strangling the '1st world' as the banksters suck it dry with their vile $-creation, loaned at %, latest manifestation = the so-called 'forced' descent into austerity. Anything for profit prioritises profit over performance; vis-à-vis for profit medicine can be and in growing cases is fatal.

Last words: There's nothing élite about criminals, there can never be peace without justice.
