im not right im not left either, not republican or democrat.
i dont want to associated with politicians-i feel like i need a shower after i listen tothem speak
As far as i can tell-here's whats wrong with politics:
1-Its not about anything besides money-issues dont mean a god damn, candidates or parties. the man in charge will always be influenced by his cabinet ministers and the house and the senate. they are loyal to the men who contribute-big fucking business.
2-as long as the government is controlled by corporations, the little guy is fucked.-yes i do live a comfortable life and i am greatful for the opportunities my friends and family have afforded me.
So what the fuck do i care? i probably wont get drafted and become a teacher. i may have to put up with some federal unfunded bill that bush passes through but thats the extent of his personal affect on me-other than the shitty economy and the fact that being an american wont get you laid in Europe anymore-sorry matts' its true.
you all can say the same. all of us went to a good highschool and got decent educations and with in the group i dont think of anyone that wont be succesfull in anything they do. but you still want to help and change things for the better.
Jesse. men have spent there entire lives in politics doing exactly what we are talking about. Making a difference. but as i said politics is not about making a difference. Its about keeping the public in a state of limbo -scared and dumb people are easier to rob.
3-the politicians that gain office/success/interns(good times with the fatties) become corrupt. money makes them forget and not care. the only ones left wanting to change are the unsuccesful 'extremists' that do crazy things such as tell the truth. look at Nader-yeah he's a good guy but since he looks the villian in just about every scooby doo episode, he will never be elected-lifetime lobbyist/crusader/spokesman or whatever the fuck you want to call it.
he would have gotten away with it if it werent for those meddling kids.
theres too much money to be made for anyone to actually give a shit.
Maybe im right maybe im not. I dont know what to do about this. I dont have an answer on how to fix it but here's what i want. an educated intelligent president/government/system that puts their faith in their people rather than their God.
its a dirty trick thats been played on americans for centuries
Fuck it im done
