I completely agree!!

I see it the same here too - they are all tied in together, all our governments are already the same - they are run by people who only see money as important - human lives are disposable............

We'd just get another bunch like them. Sorry, but yes, I'm cynical about politics. It doesn't matter which power-hungry exploiters are in there, really. This is no longer "government by the people for the people"...hasn't been for a long time. It's government for the politicians by the politicians. And we, the sheeple, allowed it to happen slowly because we became complacent. We didn't keep a sharp enough eye, and we treated those who tried to warn us like they were crazy. So...we reap what we sowed.

JMO.

I just spent an hour searching the net as to the party affiliation of J. Edgar Hoover and came up with nothing. He served under 8 presidents both Democrat and Republican alike. It appears he was neither a Dem or Repub. but the sole member of the Hoover party.

And exactly WHO allows all these things to happen?

Think about it,the U.S.Govt. is responsible for 700 Billion given away to the rich !
Last est. 300 million people in the US( Legal Tax Paying Servants)So why is it so hard for Congress to award American citizens with 300 million dollars ? -VS-700 Billion for the rich,just makes me furious,,,,,,,,

ditto..

Better days are ahead. Remember the 700 billion give away
was Bushes Administration idea.

we ARE stupid!! We elected GW Bush TWO times

well, I wasnt gonna say anytin but being as you bring it up

Yes, we ARE.

I agree Ms. K. You are dead on.

YUP!

All we can do is vote and hope that more than 50% of the population agrees with us.

Democracy is the worst form of government...except for all the other ones.

Okay, in seriously thinking about this, here are a few ideas I had, although I'm still working on how to actually implement them:

1) We have to regain control of our media, its integrity to objective reporting, and its independence from multi-national ownership, and thus, multi-national influence. Let's make American News American again.

2) We have to regain control of our own tax system. The IRS (part of the beauracray I was talking about) is often used as a club to intimidate anyone who wants to take action against the "wizards" behind the curtain.

3) Our penal code has to be completely revised. We spend billions of dollars feeding and housing people who are not criminal but diseased. Drug crimes are largely a health and treatment issue, NOT a criminal issue, and the ROI on treatment is far better than imprisonment. Yet another Bureacracy feeding itself at the cost of its victims.

4) We need to find a way to eliminate lobbyists from the political process...get the big money out of civil service and civil service will become exactly that again.

If our government messes isnt it our fault because we voted for them?

It would if this were a true democracy, but unfortunately its a Republic, which means we have a representative government, and our representatives aren't representin'
