Who was it that said, "Engage the world in commerce, but make no political alliances."? Sounds good to me.

"...not corporations who seem to be in control of federal and state governments these days."

So far as I understand that is the definition of a corporate fascist state and I agree with you. That is what we have.

As long as both parties get the $$$ from the corporate "heads" who take far too much in salaries and underpay their workers and their investors, our "leaders" will continue to bilk the citizens of the country.

Our GOP misrepresentatives have nothing to worry about, being in the majority. I'll have to go with a Republican president, and a demonrat congress next time. I'm totally sick of this waste clogging up the DC toilet.

Couldn't agree more. Seems Ben Stein recently figured this out as well.

What is the proper role for government in our society?

The answer is clear for this administration.

"I believe that's the role of the federal government, to help people"

"National Referendum on major policy issues should be made possible."

Not only should it be made possible, it should be started NOW. Sadly, the 'Pubs have acted against nearly every principle that I voted for them for. The term disenfranchised used to apply to "them," now it's me.

I will work for and vote for every non-democrat, non-incumbant, conservative/libertarian, I can in every primary and election I can.

Trimming the pork starts with the pigs...
