How to fix the US. Real things real citizens can do.

RE: How to fix the US. Real things real citizens can do.
They can't even get education to be sensible over here, and it's not just the religious right.

Lesser of two evils? How can you tell? Party politics are corrupt by their nature, as shown graphically by the Obama lame duck presidency, and our own amoral and incompetent incumbent, Lady Macbeth. (Julia Gillard).


Here, I gave up trying. At the last election, I finally decided I'd had enough,so it was "a pox on both your houses!" and I voted for the Greens. (centre-left-ish)

Then you better hope your pox on both of house, doesn't turns out to be a pox on the democratic, without the republicans suffering it

There is no "lesser" of two evils, Ashendant.

Take education. The Republicans want to change it, and the Democrats seem content to leave vital parts out in order to concentrate on the testing they find so fucking important.

Either way, kids are losing. It's just a matter of how.

Bullshit, the Republicans are evil personified, right wing Christan extremists to the max. They all need to put in a leaky boat and set to sea.

The democratic are less right in both ways and slightly more centrist, the replublicans will refuse to move and destroy your country with ideology at least the democratic will talk with others

You tell me? The ones who take everything at the point of their Jesus sword because they think they're right, or the ones who could do something and know better but stand by...because they've been called names?

The other thing is this: there are outspoken democrats, and there are soft-spoken Republicans who could bridge the gap but don't because their party has become one giant headdesk and they don't stand up to them.

It's a mixed bag of fucktardery.

I don't know, I don't have much of an intelligent answer for you right now. I'm covered in grass clippings.

Neither. Just vote Libertarian (and I mean actual Libertarians; not the people who rev jeremiah and minimalist think are libertarians).
