After an election, a new president selects a major campaign contributor for a government job. Which of the following terms best describes the scenario?
Merit system
Nepotism
Political patronage
The iron triangle

America is mostly Corporate Controlled. The U.S. Government is corrupted by the power of corporations, and corporations do not represent the people of the United States of America. So our Democracy is being undermined by the corruptible influences of money and power. Negating this influence of money and power is a serious problem that needs solving. The damage is far to great and the deaths are far too many. Sadly, politics goes way beyond its basic definition. Political and Government corruption is as deadly and destructive as wars. Citizens have very little control in the decision process. Power is in the hands of the wealthy who care more about money than people. In order to correct the defects in politics and in democracy, we need to make many improvements in education, and we need to improve how the public is informed through our media outlets, which at the moment, just wants to entertain, distract and manipulate people instead of educating people about the facts. We have a lot of work to do. We must educate ourselves in order to free ourselves from the abuses of ignorant politics and toxic leadership. Make America Think Again. Let the Knowledge Flow, and Let the People Go.
