You people can do whatever you want to and follow whatever ideology you want to just leave me out of it.

That pretty much sums up how I feel about politics, nations and people in general.

What's interesting about it? Live free or die is just another way of saying leave me alone or I'll shoot you in the face.

Let's just keep our Constitutional Republic.

We need to get rid of the Career Politicians that have caused this mess.

Then we need to educate the voters to be intellegent and vote for more than a "D" or "R"


so long as this country keeps secrets in the name of "national security" this country or any number of majority rule will be completely incapable of making anything close to an "itelligent" decision one way or the other. The American people have been voting in ignorance for as long as "secrecy in the name of national security" has existed. Which is a very long time. The american people haven't made a truly intelligent or educated vote/decision for decades now, they are incapable of being intelligent or educated. Its standard op proceedure to keep information (deemed by some godlike person within the government) "too sensitive" from the american people.

If the American people were to vote for dancing with the stars or american idol, their favorite type of beer, which football stadium they like the best etc...they might be able to make some semblence of an intelligent educated decision....but ONLY on those issues.

despite the average american being quite dumb they are not the same as a mental patient, isnt it easier to manipulate a persons vote 1x every 2 years then everyday.


Clearly you don't understand social engeneering/condition...its a life long process its not once every 2 years...

The world view people accumilate and build over their life-times is based off of the ABCD's of social/behavior engeneering.

A) Education (aka government fed propaganda)
B) News/Media (aka government fed propaganda)
C) social interractions (predetermined by A and B)
D) social reinforcement of specific "ideas"
- Positive reinforcement (adda boy's, praise, rewards, intrinsic and extrinsic rewards, rewards, rewards)
- Negative reinforcement (bullying, threats, humiliation, alienation, exile, outcast, etc)

Its very easy for a "society" and "culture" to be hijacked and manipulated by those with the desire/means. You just have to have the proper process setup. (ABCD)

Knowing this, and looking at our consumption based, zombie indused comatose of entertainment/consumption laced country....can you honestly believe anyone knows what they are truly doing? and why?

Add in the factor that people are kept out of the "loop" when it comes to anything of any importance or seriousness in the name of "national security" you can clearly see how the American people are in every way shape and form incapable of making a decision/vote/opinion on any serious/important issue and thus their decision/vote/opinion is not justified and actually VERY DANGEROUS...

THIS is the reality of our country, you can face it or not...this is the reality of every country...this is the reailty of the world. THIS is the reailty of any power structure where there exists in ANY shape or form of authority, contorl, supervision, leadership, etc...

Democracy can be very dangerous.
