When I read the far left's conspiracy theories and how corrupt anyone not catering to their tribe is and asking the firing of any AG who does not act as the president's personal attorney, I feel as if the man behind the curtain responsible for brainwashing. gaslighting and dumbing down of the far right and the far left are one and the same person.
The idiots are clearly manning the tribes.
I think the problem you are alluding to is the maleability of voters, and that person you refer to is the wealthy party heads who've all discovered the same thing and are practicing it.
That's the problem with democracy: people do not live in a world of "perfect information", nor are people even basically rational - therefore cannot make wise voting selections.
The person you refer to exploits that like a stock trader who possesses inside information.
The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) is an investment theory stating that share prices reflect all information and consistent alpha generation is impossible. Semi-strong form efficiency is a form of Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) assuming stock prices include all public information.If one studies EMH, they know it presumes that all traders have the same "perfect knowledge" about company news, financials, etc., and that the only thing that beats the consensus price (the current price) is Inside Information. Thus, trading based upon inside information is outlawed by the SEC.
Democracy requires the same - that all voters be given the same perfect information.
