The parties are the problem. A Republican screws you and tells you it's in their best interest. A Democrat screws you and you it's in your best interest. Either way, the people are getting screwed while the partisans get rich.

Exactly ! I will not waste my time to vote anymore but I am sure I will when they tally the votes . Me and all of the dead people that voted last time .
The only issue I see between the two parties is that the republicans are trying to stall and make as much money as they can and the Democrats want to move as fast as they can to totalitarianism .
The redistribution of the funds will be from us to the Banksters . And they never gave poor people anything or ever will .

The democrats are taking away your freedoms (1st Amendment, 2nd Amendment, etc..), and say its for
our own good. The republicans tell us they are taking away our freedoms, but do nothing about it as it happens
because they gave us the Patriot act which takes away our freedoms (Privacy, arrested for no reason and held indefinitely)
The independents are too busy legalizing weed, and smoking way too much of it to say anything about it!!
I'm so sick of my government i could vomit!!

Whether you are aware of it or not the Globalist are trying to destroy our confidence in our government so we will accept the UN /NWO. The action of causing so much dissatisfaction with our political and legal system is a very long term plan that is finally coming true . The Globalist have manned all the important positions to make this happen and to control media and sway opinion . Just like with the Gun issue .
We got change. And it screwed us.
But, I am fairly certain it will not stay as it is. We will change and continue to change, until things balance out.
BALANCE is essentially what we all want, right? Pay your fair share. Receive what's due to you as a citizen.
I'm not talking along partisan lines here. I am talking change. I am talking about making a difference.
To do this, we need to drop the " I'm a *THIS*" or "I'm a *THAT*" mentality. We need to think about what would be best and fair for all parties. Not just ourselves.
Am I alone in this thought pattern?

Exactly...... They have set up the world as such, we are fighting it out amongst ourselves, while they are up in the VIP box looking down at us and laughing their asses off with their popcorn.

At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality... We must strive every day so that this love of living humanity will be transformed into actual deeds, into acts that serve as examples, as a moving force. Che
