“Frankly, I am ashamed of this government (not of America). Everything they do is about controlling the masses and taking their hard-earned money (and that goes for both parties); not liberating them.”

Well, I’m ashamed of the Government AND America, because stupid Americans are who elected this pathetic excuse for a Government.

I agree the American People hold some culpability in all this. However, in terms of electing people, they can only elect who is placed in front of them. And choosing the lesser of two evils is still evil.

Anyone of real worth worth electing is defeated by the money that buys puppet candidates for special interest groups or corporations. The two-party machine is well oiled enough to not allow any real competition.

What I would like to see is the People exercise what was propounded in the Declaration:

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
