The more we learn about groups of the kind mentioned above (Bilderberg, Trilateral Commission, and Council on Foreign Relations), the more we're inclined to believe that our Government (Executive, Legislative, and Judicial) is little more than a mere puppet of the overall larger "group-of-three" (or more perhaps?) in question: regarding all matters that are of major interest to the relatively very small, but also very influential and often extremely wealthy array of bankers, lawyers, politicians, and corporate leaders involved.

Similarly with all the rest of our "elected representatives" (in both local and central government): and particularly regarding the leaders of our main "opposition parties".

Thanks to the insidious and almost invisible "prison" the politicians we elect are being secretly and silently held in (by the looks of things as they appear through the circumstantial evidence available), which appears to be very tightly and vigorously controlled by the "Ruling Elites" associated with groups such as those mentioned above, our "elected representatives" can't safely say what they mean in public regarding what are core issues for the People of the Republic of Ireland -- relating to our oil and gas reserves, heritage protection, and national security (for example): and consequently they rarely seem to actually mean what they say in public regarding such matters, appearing instead to be just "talking heads" that are being operated by remote control.

For all practical purposes, democratic politics is virtually a "dead duck" in the Republic of Ireland just now we believe, apart of course from the very expensive (in more ways than one) smoke-and-mirror types of verbal illusions which are being produced on a regular basis in places like Dáil Éireann, in main-stream-media debates and writings, and so on.

Similarly in many, many situations of the same kind outside of the Republic of Ireland: such as in the European Parliament (for example).

"Talking the talk" and "walking the walk" are two very different and separate things: especially regarding the core social issue of genuine democracy, and its many major ramifications connected with social justice, and with the general wellbeing of our society overall.

Events at home appear to have deteriorated to the stage now where our elected representatives don't even seem to be able to protect the sovereignty of our State anymore: and they even appear to be regularly producing and sustaining unconstitutional laws (with crucially important help from our UNELECTED Judiciary it needs to be very carefully noted) that are not in the public interest, but which the public are nonetheless being bullied into abiding by at the hands of individuals and public officials and bodies acting on behalf of the State -- either directly, or indirectly through the use of "private security" organisations of various kinds.

Sadly (as far as we're concerned) it seems we are all still as far away as ever from "genuine democracy", as when former U.S. President Abraham Lincoln (later assassinated) defined it as "government of the people, by the people, for the people" at the Gettysburg Battlefield Ceremony on November 19th 1863: if not much, much further, and much more dangerously so perhaps -- in terms of all the social bullying and tyranny historically associated with so many of the despotic and plutocratic rulers of recorded world history to date: "democratically elected" or otherwise, and not forgetting that the weapons of war (and mass destruction) are almost infinitely more powerful and destructive now than they were in President Abraham Lincoln's time.
