I see your point. However, the "reality" we are talking about is the corruption of the government by those within it and allowed by those too apathetic to DO anything about it. Reality is what it has been allowed to become which doesn't translate to how it SHOULD be. What is on paper, and which is conveniently ignored (or not understood) by people like dsanthony is what the designers meant it SHOULD be.
Apathy is kind of a strong term in that it implies you have the ability to do something and choose not to. This is more a realization that the entire system is corrupt and that both sides combat said corruption with other corruption.

It's nice and well to wish for a world without corrupt politicians who lie about everything but it's just about as helpful as wishing for a world where there is no disease or illness.

EDIT: Forgot to add who I was quoting before. My bad.
