Exactly. Carlin bashed both conservatives and liberals with equal zeal. He didn't even vote because he thought the system was just an illusion of choice.

As a nation, I believe our only hope is for more people to realize that both parties suck, and we're taking back our country.

Don't blame the Dems or Repubs, look in the mirror to see who's at fault.
Riddle me this:

A business owner has a widget factory with 2000 workers, and orders parts from China instead of the US, for his workers to build the widgets with. He was making a profit before but now his profits increased 3 fold.

Is it the fault of the workers building the widgets with foreign goods, or the fault of the business owner? You know, the one who sets the policies and purchases?

You then have, on the other side, the government and the consumer.

The government, along with the ones in bed with them pass tax breaks and trade policies and many other sweet deals,to increase trade with China and other countries. Wall Street and the Mega Corporations through these sweetheart deals rake in the cash, along with the crony politicians and their insider trading schemes. Then, what used to be predominantly American made goods on the shelves becomes Chinese Goods. Is it the fault of the consumer or the ones setting the purchases and policies?
