Better quit voting Democrat then, since that is their entire platform. Socialized Medicine, Socialized schools, higher taxes, Over regulation, etc
Anyways, we are going off tangent here, and I don't see much truth about these changes being presented, just a lot of 'what ifs'.
yea lyion I agree. its like the parties are swapping stances. i just wish the libratarians could put up a viable 2nd choise.
problem is both the democrats and the republicans are as fucked up as football bats right now.
Your have liberals that keep wanting to change everything around so that the government does everything from wipe your ass to spoon feed you solient green.
On the other hand most repbulicans are basically donkeys in elephants clothing and reduction in governemnet is nothing more than a banner they wave with one hand while increasing the size of it in the back ground.
An easy way to fix the current situation? shit can every damn politician from president on down. Place the senate under the votes of the state legislature where it belongs, personally take out back and beat any politician with more then 5 years in politics. It seems if you spend more than 3 years in a legislation chamber you become deaf to the needs of your contituents.
as for this national ID system, Ganzo please understand, those of you that have not been in the military cant understand the speed with which the government can fuck something up. Remember the fuckup with the social security numbers and personal information that came up missing at the Veterans Administration? that was only about 200,000 people. Think of what these morons can do if they had half a billion. Yeah my distrust for the governement is fairly obvious on this point.
