The patriot act, NDAA, verizon, IRS scandel, recent reports the government is building a Utah super storage complex, obamacare etc. Do you trust the US government of 2013? For those who are older, do you remember a time in the 50s, 60s of people actually trusting the government?
The America-haters will always find fault. It's their mission in life. For the rest of us, I believe we concentrate on facts and truths and balance those things against our lives overall. Without the rhetoric meant not to help understand or resolve issues, but to tear-down our nation.
Sorry but yes I trust our Govt and our ability as citizens to make changes. This is the greatest form of Govt.
If you read and fall for the crapola coming on these pages you are one of the uneducated who has great dreams and no common sense when it comes to how this govt is run.
This type of public outcry is media and political driven.
Unless the public sees that the Repub. run house does not want to address any issue concerning privacy then they do not belong in Govt. Get on those Repub. house members to fix the Patriot Act.
Elections and what the people want will carry the day.
And that's why candidates always go after the youth.
I recently turned 40. When I was much younger and in my early 20s I didn't really care much about politics. Though, I never fully trusted the powers that be. I could never truly align myself with either party. Just that nagging feeling in the back of my mind... you know....that stuff just isn't right. I started really waking up in 2000, and 2001 after 9/11.
Furthermore, I truly find it funny that people trash "conspiracy theorists" who have been saying that this has been going on for years, dismissing them as kooks, using the tin-foil references, and yada yada.... It seems those "conspiracy theorists" may have been right all along.
I trust that the government will do what's best for the government, not the people who serve it.
Funny thing, I was just discussing the spying on everyone, everywhere with a friend yesterday and told him I just took off and put away the tinfoil hat that was placed upon my head when I mentioned concerns that our lovely government is spying on all it's subjects or even crazier still, using the IRS as a weapon to force compliance and/or silence.
Yep, I was labeled a nut, a tinfoil hat crazy person for even thinking that this could/would/might be a possibility.
Yep, we're all tinfoil hat batshi* crazy people aren't we?
The Guardian says it has more. Hopefully they won't wait too long before publishing it.
The more they uncover and tell us the more sheep that will wake up.

Say you all voted for those Rebub. House Members, that is where laws and plans are to start. So where are they, what are they doing about privacy issues.

Funny ain't it? Those conspiracy theorists don't look so kooky now, do they? I mean, I am not a full blown wearer of the tin-foil hat so to speak, as some theories are pretty far out there. However; there are some, that are not so much. I certainly don't rule anything out, and will question things when they don't jive. No matter what the mainstream media tells us! It's not like they don't have an agenda or anything.
