I have a plan to save social security, but the American government doesn't like change. There have been two parties controlling this country since its beginning, which is absurd. There needs to be major political change in the country for anything good to happen for the people. Both the Democrats and the Republicans are for the rich, yet people still vote for these two parties. It is understandable to vote Democrat since they preach they are for the people, and understandably are more people-oriented than Republicans, but the fact is that both parties are not in it for the people.
There must be another party entered as competition. The party can't be extreme left, or extreme right as all other American third parties are. It must be moderate-radical; sadly, this won't ever happen because the two party monopolists also control the American media. Whew, sucks to be us. |

i agree with you on the need for a third party. but i believe what you really need to do is get the special interest fuckers out of the government. there will always be corruption in all government and in any country, but here it is blatantly tolerated. the american people know that these assholes are stuffing their pockets with special interest money for votes on laws that ultimately fuck over the american people. meanwhile, everyone sits by and watches the healthcare system get more fucked up, the drug market get more expensive and unattainable for the elderly, and housing on a decent street becomes out of the question for even a household that makes 150k a year, and don't get me started on gas prices. i think that no matter who is in there, its not the politicians making laws, its big business. they have so much money to buy the laws the way they want them and the politicians fuck the people in the ass as much as they will take it. |

Another problem with starting a third party in this country is that people aren't educated. I don't think people know that the top 1% of the country owns 33% of the nations wealth, and other amazing figures like that. They don't know this because the rich people of the United States (which I refer to as royalty) keep them ignornant to the facts. It is kind of gross when you think about it. There NEEDS to be change for anything to get done for the people. Another problem with starting a third party in the United States is that the government itself is set up to keep you out. You need so many signatures, and so many this and that, that just keeps you out of the whole political process itself. While it does seem impossible to create a successful third party in the US, it isn't. With technology such as the internet, I am sure it is possible to find some like minded people that can possibly spread the word of your party. Let it also be known that Ross Perot got 19% of the popular vote in the 1992 election, which is a HUGE amount of votes. He did this with mostly his own money, but if a third party does get a big following, it is highly possible to take some seats in the house or even the presidency. Right now, in my opinion, is the best time to start a third party. The country is very divided, and there are a lot of issues that either party can't seem to figure out. They can't figure out these issues because it would mean reaching into the pocketbooks of their friends (the rich), so they make it look like it is impossible to resolve these important issues, when in reality it isn't all that hard. The American people deserve better than this. Whew... after writing all of this I feel the need to make a third party. |
The US is bankrupt since a long time.

and, none of that 1% is from the adult biz, no matter how many blings you read here. we are talking white bread, good old boy, underground armies in other countries, supporting kind of rich. the u.s. society and education system as a whole is designed to keep the population as stupid as possible. we're trained to stay in line and do as we are told and be thankful to live in such a good country. i didn't understand alot of what i am frustrated about nowadays until i began to travel alot, live abroad, and mature agewise. the GOV hates people who get out of this line and watches them very carefully. |
thats the fucked up US gov. for you

This whole Social Security bullshit is just one big scare tactic. Not hard to figure out the government knows using fear is the best way to get their way these days. Health care is a much bigger problem that needs immediate attention yet you don't hear a damn thing about it. Why? Because its not profitable to change it, and people are making huge amounts of money at our expense. It is profitable for the heads of corporations and stockholders to change social security. If you think for one minute there won't be any money for people now in their 30's you're sadly mistaken. For one thing the biggest percentage of voters are people over 65, these are the people the politicians cater to more so than any other group, the money will come from somewhere. For another, if they stopped paying Social Security you would have 25% of the population either homeless or on the verge of being homeless, all elderly people. Not going to happen.

exactly. people have no way really to fight it, so they pretend its not there hoping it will go away. kinda like a hypchondriac. they aren't really sick, but they keep telling themselves so much that they are sick, that they become sick. sample principle. they keep telling us crap and eventually it becomes truth in your head. sad but true. flprnstr you have valid concise opinions on this as well. appreciated. |
