I've been fed up. Thats why I've never voted my whole life. I don't want to be responsible for the next incompetent person in office. Man can not rule themselves. That goes for the entire earth. No form of government has ever satisfied mankinds pressing problems. And democracy has been around hundreds of years before Christ. It's nothing new. Plato called it a charming form of government ( being sarcastic) where equals and unequals can decide for the common good of all. But man has proven that they lack proper motives. They are controlled by greed. They dominate to there own injury.

Democracy beats anarchy and despotism but we've become an oligarchy where the ultra wealthy control not only our country but the governments of the world. Communism is certainly not the answer either. This system needs some serious overhaul. They have made it next to impossible for grassroots movements to become viable 3rd parties.

There is only one Government I am for. Its called a Theocracy. And all other Governments and religion stand against it. That's why most haven't heard of it. Its a real option. But that's enough from me. Wisdom can look like foolishness until it reveals itself and vise versa.

i'm not religious but you are certainly right! Without morality and decency societies cannot endure for long. History has proved and reproved that point. Let's hope this unfortunate down turn of the economy is the hardship that that brings the pendulum of faith back to the path. it often takes real disaster to wake people up.

Not to get all nationalist or anything but America is one of the best countries in the world! When you look at how much creativity, and freedom we have, why are we complaining? Yes, a Theocracy would be good on paper but what would make it any different than a fascist government with Christian ideals? People even need freedom to come to Christ, too. At least in America we know human nature and have some Christian influence. Communism is the last thing that we need all it does is limit human nature which just causes apathy.

I'm all for Democracy and free enterprise. What i'm feed up with is the choke hold the 2 major parties have on this government and the fact that less than half of us pay all the taxes. The crap the media feeds us is geared to morons! Just watch an evening of television.

Yeah I agree. The news is just trying to make money on the most dramatic stories they can find because they know that you will be glued to your seat. The problem is one needs to rally people to have a say in the government otherwise you are just one of the people. We definitely need the free enterprise that is the most important thing.
