Welcome To The New Amerika
Dave U. Random
"One of the saddest sights a man can watch is during election time in
the Philippines when the poor are rounded up in dump trucks and rented
buses and sequestered by politicians near polling precincts to vote.
There they will receive ten dollars, if that, and an afternoon's worth
of gin and peanuts. In exchange for this meager handout they will troop
to the precinct and vote for the villain. The luckiest of that sad crowd
are too stupid or drunk to care. But a substantial number know exactly
what is happening; they are fully cognizant that the pittance they are
about to receive will be taken back from them a hundredfold by the
corrupt politician. They know it with the certainty of a sentient cow
walking into an abbatoir. But they take the money anyway. They take it
because they need the money and the forgetfulness today. Today the money
will buy some rice; the gin will let them forget. Tomorrow is a luxury
they cannot afford. Of all the tragic sights on earth, nothing is so
pathetic as watching a man sell his dignity with both eyes open."

And the U.S. government supports the governments that operate
this way? Is this to try and motivate the bright ones to come here?

Sigh! Makes me homesick for Chicago and the old Daley machine. 1/2
pints, $5.00 and a voters registration card (ghost vote) handed out by
an underling outside the poling place.

Not really, it's to get everyone in the world on the same level of
government as in the U.S.A. They just cut out the expense of the buses
and trucks. The gin and rice take on the form of health care, equal
opportunity employment, low income home loans, and better laws to help
their buddy in the stock market.

Democrat advances in technology allows polls to be stolen by false absentee
ballots and falsely registered "voters".
No longer the waste of gas, gin, peanuts and money.
Surely we can export this important development in the history of
corruption.
We are well on the way to making the Chicago way, the only way.

First fairly documented ballot-box-stuffing was ...1832.
In 2000, there were 109 counties around the US with more ballots cast
than registered voters.

I'm curious about this -- can you provide more info/references?

That would be nice, actual facts rather than an empty statement. Maybe
something like a document where it was presented to a court as an item
of evidence.
We all know that it's easy to throw out a number with little to back
it up other than another site that repeated the same erroneous
figures.

Worked for a company that did business in Chicago as well as parts of IL
and IN. Actually saw the cabloads of skidrow bums brought in to vote for
JFK. No one dared to challenge it.

"Nixon magnanimously chose not to contest the election, fearing that a
protracted struggle over an accurate tally would be so bitter as to
politically cripple a new president."

No one who has not lived in Chicago for a number of years or did not
grow up there can believe the incredible amount of fraud perpetrated
by the Daley's even in the day to day running of the city.

It was some guy known as MUGGER from New York and was linked from DRUDGE.

But that was a loooooong time ago. Not that there is no
"Chicago Machine" any longer but it's activity is more
like other urban areas now, where this type of fraud is
less obviously/blatantly exposed.

Ah memories, memories........
The corruption of the police was understood to be widespread:
The intersection of the north/northwest bound Kennedy and
the northbound Edens x-way almost always had a traffic cop
on duty. Common knowledge was this posting cost the officers
$5,000.00 (a more "princely" sum at the time) a year; quite a
busy intersection.
But the strange thing was "Old Mayor Daley" was never pretentious;
He lived in his old neighborhood, never divorced his wife, never was
caught taking elaborate vacations or with his hand in the till. But
he _was_ caught rigging the test so the stupid son could pass his
real estate exam. When Daley was cornered by newsmen at an
elevator in city hall his answer (only answer ever IIRC) was "You'd
do it for your son, wouldn't you?"
Ah memories, memories........
