The only beast more powerful than politics must be on-board, to overthrow the real Axis of evil.

Blanket Capitalism
Corruption
Leaders that are not qualified to lead.

*Leaders who seek Power & Glory above the needs of Society's they're perceived to represent.
Elected primarily upon their charismatic abilities or connections.
A wider understanding of societies & their people, with an education certificate for verification, would make a dramatic difference in the value for money we get from them. It would also create cleaner democracies, therefor making it easier for the rest of the world to follow suit, in a system that benefit's the people & is healthy for the globe as a whole.

The challenge to making these changes is in delivering the message. Finding ways to get key people within international media, to take a more active role in moving democracy forward. By concentrating on using their talent to make interesting productions that expose & embarrass our Leaders/Decision Makers into either cleaning up their act or getting out of the way.

Blanket Capitalism
Capitalism is life blood for our economies & all the luxuries that follow, but when Blanket Capitalism occurs, it comes hand in hand with the corruption normally associated with non capitalist systems. Leaving us with mass frustration, inflamed by a lack of Faith, Trust & Confidence in our Political leaders & Decision Makers.

Don't forget that capitalism is not the same as competition or markets. Those concepts can exist outside of capitalism.

Also, by blanket capitalist do you mean something like laissez-faire capitalism? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laissez-faire

Fellow thinker ;) Thank you for pointing out that this needs further definition. You've made me think! "Unethical Capitalism" may be a more descriptive term' i'm not sure on this! perhaps you could usu your skills to try & define this in simpler terms.

But without getting to bogged down in the defining of terms in great detail. What i'm referring to by 'Blanket Capitalism' are the problems we have when competition for financial gain seems to know few boundaries under a capitalist system. When capitalism is allowed to run wild, and ethical standards are often washed aside.

"When capitalism is allowed to run wild, and ethical standards are often washed aside"
Today's financial situation is also a casualty of this flaw
