conning the electorate

Came across the following cartoon today;

It's funny, but also misleading, maybe even intentionally so!

It implies that voting for either of 2 parties which are both corporate controlled, will make any real difference!

And that's how the status quo is maintained.

The poor and the elderly and the minorities may all feel disenfranchised, but if they believe that voting makes any real difference, they grumble along hoping that maybe this time, their vote will change their plight.

Real change will only come about if enough people see that we live in a corporate controlled world, and that the scarcity issues we face, are all the result of greed and corruption.
It's no good voting out one set of greedy and corrupt politicians, only for them to be replaced by another set.

Who can we vote for?
If you ran for office, would you be free of greed and corruption?
