Do you think people will ever learn what the politicians are doing to them. James Madison said it..?

I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations. - James Madison

Can we ever gain back control?

    We can if we start electing people who will break up the bureaucracy in Washington and start making the government responsible for the job it does.

    Until then, it ain't gonna happen.

    I think it is to late. We have way to many people in this country who want these free rides promised by the politicians in both corrupt parties. The parties have successfully divided the American people, and have ensured their remaining in power to do the bidding of the elites and the corporations. The one or two honest public servants are kept powerless. Only if the people are willing to overthrow both parties, can our march into totalitarianism be reversed. I have no hope of seeing that happen in my life time.

    Oh, I think many of us realize what is going on. However, as a single person or even a group of people we are powerless to change it. And don't mention about voting....look at this year we will have our choice of:

    Obama is a left wing liberal socialist Democrat

    Clinton is a left wing liberal socialist Democrat

    McCain is a left wing liberal socialist Democrat

    Why bother voting at all? I'm staying home.

    Not as long as the Media controls what we hear and if Hillary, Obama and the others are allowed to destroy Talk Radio.

    Nope- your leaders sold you out to the banks and corporations long ago my friend. Read up on Abe Lincoln- and maybe his assassination will make more sense. Hint- it had nothing to do with slavery.

    Yes, we can gain control again, but just as the emcroachments took time to develop, it will take time to reestablish our government

    It's possible and will likely happen in the near future as people get sick and tired of the concentration camp victims now running the World. I guarantee it will happen.
