A Change in Elected Officials Equals ...

Nothing

From Rights of Man, Part 2. This could easily apply to the Republicans and Dems as well as to the Tories and (New) Labour:

"All this seems to show that change of ministers amounts to nothing. One goes out, another comes in, and still the same measures, vices, and extravagance are pursued. It signifies not who is minister. The defect lies in the system. The foundation and the superstructure of the government is bad. Prop it as you please, it continually sinks into court government, and ever will."

Replace “court” with “corporate” and it still equals the same thing, doesn’t it ?

By the way, Bastille Day is February 14. Pause to celebrate our brother/sister revolutionaries.
