When americans wake up and realize that government has destroyed our country....??

Can't tell if you're talking about Dems or GOP. If Dems are there, more government for things like health care and higher taxes. Contrary to popular Dem belief, the war will not go away if Obama or Billary get elected, Dems won't let us drill for our own oil, the billions in foreign aid won't go away either. All this still goes on with GOP government. I guess maybe that's your point.

Although I agree that government is a source of many of our problems, we must take some responsibility for that. This is a government of the people, by the people and for the people and it's about time we let those we elect know that. The influence by special interest groups, lobbyists and PACs is out of control. They are undermining the direction the people want this country to go in. We the PEOPLE are so lethargic, except at election time, to the behavior of our representatives that those same representatives think they have a blank check, or the total agreement, from us to do what they want. When will that stop? I know I communicate with my reps, do you?

1. We have plenty of corn. The prices are high cause of fuel demand, war in the middle east, and we let them so they are.

2. Other countries have socialized health care and it works fine. For profit health care is a bad idea from the get go.

3. Fuel prices are up- see 1

4. I agree, lets get rid of lobbyists and do some real election reform.

5. I agree. Let's worry about our problems, then theirs.

6. I agree. Except for the terrorist part. Most "terrorists" are only POed cause Americans either directly or indirectly killed someone they know and/or Americans have invaded and overthrown their country/ culture.

EDIT- Ryan. I think BJs would be good for everyone.

How can one be anti BJ????

I guess you should get out now before the country collapses. I bet Iran will take you in.

You need to be specific.......REPUBLICAN control of government has ruined the country because they don't believe in good, efficient, well-managed government, only the chaotic amorality of unregulated free-markets.*

Free markets are the problem, not the solution. Everything proper government has been doing has revolved around cleaning-up the messes free markets make.

For example; unregulated, competitive, free-market financial engineering is the cause of the financial crisis that FORCED the Fed to bailout Wall Street to prevent the collapse of our entire banking system. The financial wizards making those multi-million dollar salaries didn't even understand their own products or know what they had on their books!

It's unbelievable that conservatives still worship at the altar of such reckless social engineering. The Constitution still gives the People the power to regulate commerce and promote the general welfare (conservatives, please see the definition of "general welfare" the Constitution refers to below). If conservatives don't want to take control of their social and economic fate, other Americans will!

Yes it will be too late. Too many Americans want government to do something for them. Farm welfare, social welfare, corporate welfare, Health care, Schools. etc. etc.

Tell me JonB, are you a glass half full or glass half empty kind of guy????? Just wondering!!!

It's been too late years ago.

no, the ELITES that run the government are fleecing us. and its already too late.

But wait, you mean America isn't the goodest thing eva? WTF!

** Ideogene... you're right, we need more blowj*b recieving democrats running this country, that'd fix everything!
