The Federal government only has the power we allow it to have. I continue to not understand why people are so quick to criticize the very people they voted into office in the first place, and I don't mean Obama. He is president, which means he's head of the Executive Branch. Obama doesn't pass laws, that's Congress' job, and it's Congress that continued to stall as the government approached a shutdown. People elect all these Democrat and Republican morons into office without realizing that these people are not interested in representing the people of America, but rather they are interested in promoting their party's agenda and the agendas of their biggest contributors. Also, the "grass roots" Tea Party movement is no better, since its primary funding comes from the Koch brothers, the two richest brothers on planet earth, along with many other super-rich who want to destroy the entire tax system and shut down the government's policies that try to regulate the already out-of-control financial industry. If you want change, then start voting smart and vote independent, because nobody in any major party is there for your interests anymore.

The flaw in this thesis is that inner maximum company keeps to reinforce, now no longer decrease. the concern is this develop isn't indoors the US. commerce regulations that have been bought on the inspiration that they've been meant to verify the US worker has all yet destroyed our center type. Now our social and extremely infrastructure is falling aside by ability of ability of certainty our tax shape can now no longer help our bloated protection rigidity and take care of the applications of a time-honored international u . s .. different than this adjustments a extensive part of our inhabitants could be living 0.33 international lives. The question i ought to opt to ask the guy who revealed this 'question' is...who do you think of of has the main significant effect on 'our' government...the american income earner or the trans-national companies? At suitable 'our' government is appearing actual a splash existence help on what's left of the ninety 5% of yankee that make up the 'working type'. one extra effective administration like the Bush administration skill that there will be little 'inner maximum company' in this u . s . AND no help from 'the government'. the american income earner might have been seduced and abandoned...and that comes with the 'conservatives', the teabaggers and the ditto heads. Then what?

I believe so, but I think the blame lies with the federal courts who throughout the entire history of the US have done very little to throttle back the powers of congress and the president. The courts allow elastic laws to be enacted and simply allow the other branches to gain too much ground too fast.

There is no federal Government. The USA is BANKRUPT. The country was about to be shut down permanently.
