If you have abandoned all hope, then kill yourself. I have in no way abandoned hope. I am suggesting that we are wearing ourselves out swatting individual bees instead of pouring gas on the hive.

We are playing with loaded dice. Sure, it might not always land on 7's. There is a chance something else will come up. We can scream and yell and pray and hope for a different result but the facts remain. The dice are loaded. The districts are too big to have actual representation. They represent their donors not their constituents. They are much more likely to stay in power by keeping the thugs or the parties happy than by keeping the people happy. When the congressmen do the math they figure both sides of this equation.....

Lobbyists+Party Bosses+Union Thugs+Corporate Donors+Special Interests=Constituents

Sometimes the right side of that equation outweighs the left side. Most of the time it does not.

As long as you have a rifle, you still have a vote.

The clunkers program is failing miserably,,,80 some % of the cars sold are foreign cars. Toyota, Nissan, and Hundai. It isnt going the way they intended.

The Unions, the corporations, and all the special interests, you can vote them down by not buying their products. Starve them. Refuse to pay taxes. When a dozen or so of these “representatives” get tarred and feathered, then they will develop the fear to listen to us. Make them afraid to go home. When peaceful revolution isnt possible, then non peaceful revolution is inevitable. Turn up the Heat.

I don't know what your point is here.

You're complaining that what everyone is doing is doing nothing, yet you are not doing ANYTHING except complaining about what everyone else is doing.
