Alright, well, my family and I always talk about this stuff and I would like to see other people's opinions on here. Okay, here is everything I have to say, please make a response:

I personally think our government is horrible, and it is not getting better. Our economy is obviously horrible. So, what do we do, send money out to other countries of course! Haiti had an earthquake. Does that suck? Yes. That is horrible. But, that isn't our country. It isn't our problem. So, our economy sucks, we're wasting our money elsewhere, and we just get worse and worse and make other countries better and better. In my opinion, that makes us weak and others strong, that's just asking for defeat. Other then that, we keep sending our businesses off to other countries as well. We lose our jobs, we lose our profits, other countries gain both. Goes back to my defeat comment. Alright, to my next point. What happened to doing what the people want? This new healthcare plan, only around 30% of citizens want that, but they are working on passing it anyway. What is up with that? The 70% of people that don't want it just get crossed out? That doesn't make sense to me. A republic is a "democracy: a political system in which the supreme power lies in a body of citizens who can elect people to represent them." The supreme power is not representing us! And, in order for a republic to work correctly, citizens need to be educated. Well, I hate to say it, but most of our citizens are not educated good. As the Roman Empire proved, this will lead to the collapse. So, no jobs, no money, no manufacturing, poor government, and uneducated citizens. What a great country. I think we are going to be the next Soviet Union. We will collapse if this doesn't change. This is not a democracy, this is a monarchy.

For those of you that actually read through that, give me your opinions. I may be 16, but I think I am fairly well educated in this. I'm interested in other views.
 
I'd like to type out a really nice well writen reply but I'd just be waseting my time and everyone else's time aswell.....

Because you pretty much summed it up, I really don't think I could add anything more intelligent then that. The funny thing is 90% of educated people are in fact compete idiots lacking any common sense at all, and that is what makes this country as a whole fail.

Ahh yes, I forgot to add something about common sense. XD

Glad you agree.
 
In my opinion... I think that we shouldn't be promising Hati 100M in tax payer dollars to build their sh*tty buildings that were never to code in the first place... If the economy is as bad as the "goverment" says it is then why can we keep promising people who don't need it and don't deserve it millions/billions of dollars from us tax payers?
 
I think that our goverment is crap on a stick like stated before were in such a deep recession that were nearly in a depression so what do we do we send more troops into a war thats never gonna end, we send money to other countrys for natural desasters when i know damn well we wouldnt get crap if anything happened to us, and were sending all our jobs to other countrys because it costs lest money... WHAT about US, the bush administration shot us into a hole and obamas digin us deeper, and like stated above they do not listen to what people want they do what they want, and the percentage of people who are running school boards and government and stuff dont know jack, infact my school board is a wrestling coach a vet a farmer a teacher and another farmer WTF, and i heard in a consperacy mith that the govement created the swine flu to try to control the population and intorduced it in third world countrys knowing it would spread and it dint work so the nasal spray is supposed to be worst then getting the flu, and ever heard of the song evolution by korn o yea its happining DE EVOLUTION of man kind. more l8r i gotta change classes
 
I just love how short minded people are. Things fell apart from 2000 to present but it seems as though nobody remembers that this all started with the last ass hole that was our "leader". If you think that by electing someone new that things will be better with a snap of a finger then think again. It will take time and might never be like it was. I have to give this guy some credit for trying to make ice cream from the bag of sh*t that was handed to him.

At 16 years of age you are not that educated yet, I'm in no way putting you down, but there is a lot yet to learn. If you are raising a family without health insurance then you might think different. If you lost your job due to big companies getting the tax breaks to sending work out of this country then you might feel different about the last guy.

I'm not in total favor of what is going on today but at least Obama is making an attempt. My only wish is that all of our elected officials would get together and come up with a plan to better the situation. The concern at the moment is that they are trying to get the uperhand for 2012. I just hope that we can hang in there till then. Bush did nothing, he was the puppet for Cheney and his posse.
 
This is going to have to be short from me.

Lets put it this way, I think we just need to keep out of everyone else's problems and worry about our own. No one helps us, why should we help them? We are in so much debt its not even funny.

Haiti for instance. I was watching the news yesterday about it. Yeah its sad and what not but its not our problem. WE sent 10,000 troops over there with supplies for the Haitians. Is it necessary, NO. This is where I'm coming from, why are we always the ones that have to come save the day, then just get sh*t on later? We have some dumb people in office thats why.
 
yea i give obama crdit too but the bush ADMINISTRATION meaning cheany and his people doin sh*t behind bushes back im not putin down any particular person im puttin down the whole goverment, like we say in band if one person sucks ass every one in that group sucks ass and for being 16 i know quite a bit, i have takin alot of political classes and trust me my mom dont have a job and i support the family basically i dont get very much money to my self, and obamas doin good tryin to help out i give him that but if were in such a bad ression why send money elswhere, and the war its pointless saudi arabian terriorist atacked us not iraq and thats another cheany behind bushes back

Your going to get a crap load for saying that the war is pointless.

Its not. We are there for a reason. It may not be accomplished yet, but it will hopefully soon. What we need to do is stop supplying everyone with sh*t I.E. (food, clothing, ect,ect,ect.) Back to what I said before, WE shouldnt have to be everyones hero. Obama needs to stop trying to make friends and do whats he needs to do. For christ sakes hes trying to take away guns and ammo from us! ITS NOT THE GUN THAT KILLS, BUT THE PERSON!!!
 
well sorry in my mind the war is pointless one family member injured 2 killed and a couple friend hurt and killed in my mind its pointless sorry, and also i agree our governments like a charity

You dont have to apologize. This is supposedly America or is it? We better keep using our rights while we still can, freedom of speech which isnt really freedom of speech right? Everyone's got their own opinions and that's fine! People just need to deal with other peoples opinions and need to live with it instead of trying to change it!

Honestly, there are just too many idiots in the government. They are trying to help but they are not listening to a word of what the citizens say. What really sucks about the haiti situation is that before this earthquake we didn't give a sh*t about them but now that they had some massive earthquake we are all buddy buddy with them bullshit.

Obama is doing the best he can in my opinion but the rest of the idiots in the government arent helping. If things dont improve majorly by next year then im gonna lose faith in the government. If that happens i will support something called Anarchy most likely
 
hmmm was i the only one taught not to bring up polotics in public

I was too, but I wanted other's opinions XD

I like to see both sides, this is the best way to. All of my family sees the same way, so it's cool to get an outside view.

samolia-
The only person that will tell you that is someone who wants to keep the people uninformed. Now IS THE TIME to talk politics. NOW IS THE TIME to risk offending friends, family, and even strangers. Our way of life is AT RISK. YOU MUST become well read, informed, educated, and opinionated.




I just love how short minded people are. Things fell apart from 2000 to present ……..

And I would strongly DISAGREE with some of your statements. People are short minded. With that I agree. The people have forgotten how this country came to be. They have forgotten the pride of a hard days work. They have forgotten that NO ONE will take care of them but themselves. The statist has pushed a progressive agenda (read: Socialism) onto our people. And now many have an entitlement mentality. They start with the young. The kids grow up THINKING the government owes them a home, a job, healthcare, retirement. But in reality, YOU make all things happen for you!
How many people in the cities will be able to survive if this thing really falls apart?
How many know how to clean a fish, gut and skin an animal, milk a cow, or even plant a garden full of vegetables?
How many know how to make sure they have a clean water source?
Or even start a fire?
I know I only know how to do half of what I listed. I know I’d have to gather friends and family to WORK my arse off to rebuild. And I am ready to do it, if need be.
The point being, come hell or high water, I WILL find a way to protect my family. No matter what. And they have been taught to afford that same protection to all around us as well.
The police will not always be there. The military will do there best. But the reality is that every man must protect his own.
Where did that self reliance go?

That's right. HUNDREDS of billions owed to China.
Wake up guys.
We need to throw out the corrupt politicians and replace them with men and women of character who will defend our Constitution!
