"Yet this very common state of mind and motivation can't be assigned to those who have the power and means to actually do something about it?"

Sure. They have it too. They also only have one vote. George Soros is a billionaire who dedicated a large part of his assets to defeat George Bush. Average American voters overruled him. That is why we live in a democracy.

"What, you think I meant to say I don't find the notion credible?"

I have no idea what you were going to say...and based on this latest input, I have even less of an idea.

"So, being a member of CFR rates a presumption that these will uphold the oath?"

Being a member of the United States military rates the presumption that they will uphold the oath. Don't you dare let your fantasy world trash the members of our armed forces. They don't have the luxury of living outside of the real world.

You are really afraid all that is true, aren't you?

They also only have one vote.

Not if they have undue influence over those who make the policy and law. Maybe, maybe not. How do you know? Tell me what goes on in the meetings.

Ok, you don't know what I was going to say. That's acceptable to me.

Yes, indeed, members of the armed forces. The vast majority are faithful, honest and honorable. But that would depend on the man, not the uniform or an oath.

Your faith in men in the face of great temptation and great power is charming. But no thanks.
