Yeah, too bad you don't have any real choice about who is elected. Did you want Romney? McCain? These are the kind of people you're going to get from now on. At this point, Federal power base is completely unchallenged by voting.
There are other ways to challenge the Federal tyrants. Most of them involve state-level action.
State-level action is a great place to effect change. That is what I suggested, if you carefully reread what I wrote.
Who we send to Congress matters, and he/she should be a part of the changes forming within a state.
I definitely did not want Romney. He was a self-avowed Progressive and I repeated that over and over on FR before the election. The only reason I voted for McCain was Palin.
The problem, as I see it, is those people who perceive themselves as “world citizens” and a global elite run businesses. They have an unusually strong influence on agriculture, industry, and construction sectors. Most of them seem to be in charge of large corporations and are remote from the average American. They use us for their own ends - international security for their corporations - and don’t give a damn about our God-given rights.
