We need a change of heart in this country, we need to help each other, and not be saddled with policies and debt by people that it won't affect.
Just don't know how to acheive this in the near future....... :cry:

There are movements springing up all over to combat this 'creeping socialism' and government dependence that some seem to desire.
People need to hold rallies and support candidates who embrace fiscal sanity/conservatism, personal responsibility and business friendly policies with lower taxes.
The government gets a chunk of the money every time it moves. As long as money keeps moving, the government will eventually get it's share. There is no need to stifle economies with high taxes. Lower taxes and let people spend more. They buy more stuff and that creates more jobs. This cycle repeats and the economy grows.
Dependance on the government leads to a society of people who cannot function on their own. This is what we are seeing today. We have generations of kids who have been over coddled and always given praise. We stopped keeping score of their futbol matches and correcting their tests with a red pen. If you spank a kid today the authorities might come for you.
These kids get out in the work force and get criticized for poor performance for the first time in their lives and they cannot handle it. They don't know how to do simple tasks or follow directions. They don't understand that they must adapt to the job - the company will not adapt to them. It is no surprise they are politically ignorant but ideologically rigid in their beliefs. The school system and pop culture media have brainwashed them all into being abortion loving socialist metrosexuals with half a nut on a good day and no job skills.
They damn sure can't make it on their own so they need the government. It is time to wake these idiots up and make them see themselves for what they are. Tell the politicians you aren't going to support a generation of lazy, greedy, stupid, insolent bastards.
