as that is a likely scenario for where the DisUnited States of America is heading. That show was way ahead of its time. I am 62 and I have never seen it like this. It makes the years of old Tricky Dick look almost tolerable. Back then the Demos were actually the loyal opposition. Now they are mostly complicit including the Current Occupant, as Garrison Keillor likes to call him. Can you imagine how the American people would have reacted 40 years ago to the news that there were going to be unlimited corporate contributions for political campaigns or that there would be a "Super Congress"! Yes, we have fallen much deeper into the corporate wet dream and I agree with you - I do not think that this will end well.
