It belongs to nobody.

The blame game.

Always with the blame game in the U.S.

Lets just get this strait. From now on when ever you want to blame a huge horrible event on someone or something just blame the government. Don't say oh well its Obama, or its Bush, or its this or that president. Its over with! Here and now! In all reality, most of the time its probably some evil corporation that needs to be blamed!

We all sit around and say its the Democrats! NO! Wait! It's the Republicans! Have you ever actually sat down and thought that it might be both of them? Have you ever wondered that maybe... just maybe that they are actually on the same team? Is that possible?

Yes!

Left, Right, Republican, Democrat....

Don't you get it? Our democracy/republic is a joke of the civilized world!
Even the Greeks managed a better democracy and they existed thousands of years ago!

Do you really think a democracy with only two parties is a good idea? In all honesty? Do you believe that this is good?

All of you people who believe that our democratic system is working and stable are fools! If you don't think that our TWO great parties are becoming united under multi-nationalist corporations through the use of lobbyists (aka legal bribery) then you should not be allowed to vote.

In fact, maybe you should even be castrated.

This nation does not need more ignorant masses that continue to believe our two party system is working and the corporations have our best interest in mind and they would never bribe a politician.

So if you do believe what I have stated above is a lie, then please do the world a favor and do not have children. Thanks.

Castrated? Yikes! Hey, I been fixed, , I can't procreate. If I don't agree with you, will you cut off my johnson and his friends?

For sure, stop the blame game. Just solve the problems and then sort out the blame, yes?

I agree with you OP, concerning the blame game, the left/right silliness and people needing to be clued in, but not about the castration. Yikes!

Edited to clarify some things.

Binary thought will destroy itself of its own volition.

But it will happen quicker if we all take positive steps to circumvent it's influence, destroy its character and build its alternative.

Dialectics. Thesis vs. Antithesis should create synthesis - though they hide the natural reality of this from us...

Perhaps its supply and demand.

If you can't see the basic differences between the 2 parties, you are blind.

Republicans always get in trouble when acting like Democrats. ie. George HW Bush. But Democrats never get in trouble when acting like Repubicans. ie. Andrew Jackson, JFK, Bill Clinton (only because he was forced to)

I guess I'm safe then

Eventually all will understand. It's not Dems against Repubs, or right against left; it's us against them. It will soon boil down to basic survival and then maybe more will see. Find out now who your friends are.

Not in an attempt to discredit you personally, but this whole "us versus them" thing is the same binary thought that is destroying the world - it should be "us against ourselves" if we weren't all apathetic and participated in society more alot of these problems would be less significant than we have allowed them to get.

By conquering ourselves, we with conquer the infamous "they".

Yeah. They kinda suck.

As for the differences between the parties? There are NONE. A few social or fiscal platform diffs maybe to fool the masses into believing there's an actual choice or something. That's about it.

But you're right...the real them we is blaming is us. In the end. And it's pointless. And it's contrived. And it's by design...all this divisiveness. And if we ALL don't awaken to it soon, we're sunk.

Exactly, I always thought it's just a charade. The differences are superficial at best and people who get all hyped up in defense of their political views are kind of missing the point. Their thought processes are a little vague, so to speak.
