The national debt is astronomical and doubt if the people of the United States will ever get out of debt.
Hmmm its lower then it was after WW2, but certainly not in a good place, we've gotten out from under this before, we will again.

We've ALWAYS had a corrupt banking system.

Robbing the savers of interest who are in retirement.
Depends, low interest rates hurt savings, but are great for 401k's at the moment.

Big brother is everywhere with cameras on streets and intersections under the guise of giving out tickets.. it is patrolling the streets at major intersections.
Agreed. The coming low level ai systems will make it especially prevalent.

Government dictates what we have to buy through mandates.
Please, the only "mandate" im familiar with it the one saying "buy insurance so that we don't have to support your deadbeat butt if you get sick". Course it came from a heritage foundation idea so I do admit to some concern.

Quote:
Government overreaches into every aspect of our life with new taxes, new legislation, and fights against our personal freedoms.
We have low taxation rates. (No really-research it). The personal freedoms is a big concern though, I agree. States have been especially bad about it lately.

Obama and his pen can overreach into everyone's life with his executive power.
Sigh. No he can't despite the bruhaha. He doesn't even invoke it much compared to prior presidents.

Quote:
American people have lost their power and illegal aliens are gaining power. Borders will blur and the rights of the people are ignored. Illegal has no meaning to the government , only has meaning against its own citizens. Good is bad and bad is good.
And ten you start foaming at the mouth, "bad is good" really?

There is a stock market bubble.. haven't you heard? Those 401k's are waiting to deflate and the money will shrink..

The 1% must be the rich democrats that control the news... they hype that party and smear the other.

Do you really think the democrats are not rich and don't have power? They say one thing and do another..

Do you really think the government has the peoples back?

The government is becoming the enemy of the people no matter if you are democrat or republican. The power of the American people is gone.. we are just a shell.. the government can do what they want to us.

State control is gone. The federal government controls the states. Republicans are for state control and small federal government.. the democrats are for large federal government. The federal laws dictate to the states.

Well, thanks for clearing that up.

Wow. just wow.

The democrats do not control the news, generally they are ran by multi-nationals, although msnbc is democrat ran, and fox is republican ran, from there its not a matter of politics, but wealth.

And so you claim....all the rich are Democrat? Seriously? You want to turn this into Republican Vs Democrat, with the wealthy Democrats being the bad guys? Please. Its the .1% vs everyone. Until you figure that out you're buying into the wrong war.

BWAHAHHA no the government doesn't have peoples back. Could they? Well yes. Go read the citigroup memos where they list that one of the biggest threats to a plutocracy is in fact the ability of people to vote. So....can it? yes! Does it? Nope.

But wait...look at what you said. First you go on about the democrats being bad...then at the end you realize its not a D or R issue. Pick. Which one is it?

Because you're just going after the Democrats, but you seem to realize deep down thats not the issue.

Don't go mocking the space lizards, they aren't necessarily evil per se, but if they are-you're making their list!

The Bildeberg stuff actually has some truth behind it BTW. Given the secrecy its hard to say exactly how much though.

A Nazi in an old Three Stooges short uses the phrase " A New World Order" so you can laugh at the idea but also be wary, these imbeciles want it. All three Bushes( Obama is Bush 44) and Clinton have been stooges working to accomplish it.

And this is the typical right-wing response.

You failed to address anything in my post. This is just a blanket statement accusing me of being uneducated with some sort of disease because you have nothing better (factual or coherent) to say.

If the Middle Class wants to return to former glory, don't vote for the GOP. Bring back unions, raise taxes on the 1%, raise the minimum wage, and stop allowing the Right-Wing propaganda to control your emotional state.
You are free to debate the points I laid out for you.

-unions
-raising taxes
-minimum wage
-RW propaganda

It's so Bilderberg and gives over our and others' sovereignty to the United Nations; an organization we permitted to park in our country and which clearly is not in our best interests as a nation given the makeup and actions of the so-called Security Council. It's all about greed and control of the world economy by a very few with no regard for our constitution or anyone else's.

All-in-all, it's mankind at its worst.

Yes indeed. IMHO we should kick the damn UN out of here, and turn that complex into luxury apartments!

There are evil forces in high places.. not lizards.. more clarification. It is not the body of a person that is evil , it is the thoughts of greed, power ,the love of money,and corruption which are the evil forces that drives it.

The government serves the people. We vote for them. That is why I would take heed of (primarily GOP) goons trying to curtail voting rights, gerrymander their way into power, and amend our election processes (so that we can't vote for Reps and the Pres). Don't worry, the latter is coming to a GOP legislature near you!!!
