When did we turn into a democracy? I could have sworn we are a Republic.

Of course the people are the best remedy for the sickness that is rampant in this country. But Alrea, you have to make them care and I'm beginning to believe that only another tragic event and another and another will bring them to their senses and maybe not even then. "Someone else will take care of it for me."

To many people are willing to only sit on their behinds and do nothing but watch tv. They could care less about their country until something happens. Someone, I think it was Kruschev, made the comment that "we would not have to take America with Guns, but from within, the people would do it for us." I don't have the exact phrase, I know, it's close though and it is exactly what we are doing.

No one votes 'cause they think either their vote doesn't count or that someone else vote will cancel mine, so why vote.

We show apathy in everything we do - "someone else will do it." That is what has become the America way whether at home, in the community or national - the majority of Americans are just lazy about their responsibility of the government of the respective states and also of the federal government.
