That speech in Madison was a spontaneous event, not something planned. Read the story here. The story illustrated how the media is part of the problem and another article mentioned by Mike points out that the White House is part of the problem, not part of the solution... the White House sees what is happening in Wisconsin as a distraction that is not part of their new catch phrase... "win the future"....I guess workers rights are not part of the future...

Yes, the people who become the 'elected' officials usually are not even aware what the real people's lives are like. Are they corrupt? Yes, because after they get elected, their goals change... and the new focus is to stay in power.

I look sceptically on the whole system of so called "democracy" around the World. Politicians, who forget interests of their people not only "corrupted", but first of all they serve interests of corporations and banks.
And the deception of "elections" are just the part of "spectacle", when true power (corporations) put responsibility on fictive and temporary power (officials).

But the difference is that we saw alternative and the deception in our country is more rude, but in your country such deception is more complicated.
