I'm not going to disagree with anyone about the voters. someone once said 'in a democracy you get the government you deserve' .

but where do the weak willed and weak minded voters come from? is it the news media? the schools? just to lazy to do the research? to tired after working all day trying to make ends meet to go searching for real news?

there is no simple answer.

but big business greases the palms of lazy dishonest politicians, they are then in the CEO's pockets.

I feel we are becoming more like serfs everyday.

Well,if I have to vote for one it would be big business,they lobby and buy the politicians by the handful.
Big business is now running the world,from behind the scenes,we never see them and they never see us,and it's all numbers with lots o' zeros in computers.

Angry

One does not need to be bigger than the bully to take him down - one just needs to hit him in the nads.

We just need to find a way to hit bobo in the nads and make him realise he WORKS FOR US!

Dubya may have worked for Big Business, but the kenyan is fast Federalizing all our industry and business - rather in the same mode as his buddy Uncle Hugo down in Venezuela. bobo is setting himself up as the CEO of all our Big Business, and handing out leadership positions to his fellow Gangland shills and cohorts, with no regard to their knowing anything about that industry or department.
