A pure democracy can only thrive with a bountiful and healthy marketplace of ideas and choice, so I'd say we abandoned democracy for capitalist oligarchy a while ago, but we'll see what happens... I'm optimistic.

The USA is not a Democracy, I don't know where you were educated, but the USA is a REPUBLIC. I doubt you even know what a republic is. "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all". Remember that? or were you not taught that in school? America was founded on Liberty, look up the definition of Liberty and you will be surprised. It was also founded on the rule of common law, Hurt no one and cause no one loss. That is Common Law.
According to the polls Obama has tripled his base of disapproval. He started at 90% approval and in only 6 months has dropped that to 58%, yeah its a majority but by the time he has 1/4 of his term done he should have less than 10% approval, and by the end of his term will probably go down in history as the worst president to ever take the office.
You just keep on thinking that the gubbermint is going to give you a free lunch and save the world. That is exactly what "They" want.
