It's like the game, that cunning game that bigger kidsplayed on you,
when they told you that the ball was in the bushes.
And you went there for hours to look,
when the ball was really behind their backs.
That's the game being played throughout the world today
by governments and big money.
Most countries have democracy such that
the average person can feel he is picking his government.
wow! good for you!
However, the real game is the running of the government,
which is completely out of our control.

behind your back.
the game and all the winnings.

*- Even as we philosophise about what's wrong with democracy, the government is continuing to give away the game. As Michael Moore said, the US has not passed any laws on the stock market, because the failed banks are using the people's money to lobby (i.e. buy off) politicians.
