When an entity becomes so powerful that it's profit gluttony and political persuasion does indeed adversely affect the American People It is called unconstitutional That particular document our Constitution compiled of principals of specific design by which the PEOPLE are PROTECTED not only by the government but from it as well. It isn't a wonder they separate Church and State And raise red herring stinks on an issue that only requires neutrality If you ask me better bedfellows I'd say than Big Business jerking around the economy But then they'd be legislating morality Frankly in this our litigious society I'm quite amazed there is no class action suit on behalf of us challenging the blatant power imbalance Shouldn't be too hard to set a little precedence striking down day to practices of too powerful parties in this our great Republic that represents money not people and proudly defy and abuse the first amendment right to openly declare to take down their own President If we were truly in a state of war that would be treason But world wide conflicts are a loophole that let that sort of thing slide by How quickly we forget the people actually voted this one in He was our win Worry if you want about Socialism I'm worried about what we call a Democracy is capitalism |

Well, you have had your say. That, too, is democracy. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

That's why our country's founders said no to a democracy and yes to a republic. Europe was over loaded with failed democracies.  JL  Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. |

This is one write that makes me wish I were better at speaking and putting my concerns down the way you did. I don't see a democracy, but the glaring narcissism of dictatorship. Democracy doesn't mean what it used to when I was young. I bear witness to blindness and ignorance (sometimes my own lack of understanding about how this happens: the constitution blatantly ignored), and I agree that the bottom line is not about what the people want anymore, but a certain few. I also admit that the lack of principle scares me, for the danger lies in the word that Ice recently used: manunkind. |
