I thought the problem was our corrupt, corporate owned government. The real enemy is we the people. We can not agree on even the basic issues. We are so divided, our representatives act with no regard to the wishes of the people who elected them. Why should they? It's not as though we will do anything about being sold out? All we do is complain.
Same ole politicians are d**gged out for each e******n. Same old tired ineffective agendas. Convince the people to v**e for an independent candidate is to waste a v**e. Not one new idea in the lot of them.
Each of the two parties are incapable of compromise. As long as you can keep the people divided you can place any i***t in any office. Once elected he/she doesn't have to accomplish one thing promised. Just blame it on the other party. Convince people to identify with one group or another ie: conservative, liberal, Democrat, or Republican. Have them stand by this group ,even when they know they are wrong because they feel they have no recourse. Better the devil you know.
Create false crisis after false crisis to keep the people from realizing just how bad they are being screwed. Take the focus off what you are not doing and place it on some trumped up crisis.
In my opinion, if we the people do not come together soon, we are doomed. These clowns in Washington do not care what the individual's problems are. They only care about the bottom line of greed and power.
We have given away our freedoms. We will not regain them by backing either of the parties responsible for their loss. Both parties are guilty of selling out their constituents. Look at the last budget.

Part of the problem is that soon as someone stands up for trying to protect our country, there are a hundred bucking him for doing it. Case in hand, weather you're for or against, is Sen. Cotton. He feels that the President and people working this deal with Iran can't be trusted and that the other branches of the government have as much right to be involved in deal making that is so important. There is much reason to suggest this which is just too much to list. One of the other reason's is that we as individuals have no bargaining powers at all. You can email and write to your rep's and get a nicely written brush off.
