The only people we have to blame is OURSELVES. We keep electing people with low character but fast talk that look good in front of a teleprompter, but pretty much worthless otherwise. What right-minded individual would want to be a politician (which is exactly the problem).
When intelligent, informed voters are greatly outweighed in our country by racially/poverty/socially charged persons, we are set up to fail.
There are not enough educated people in the country to make qualified decisions, and the politicians keep it that way. In addition, we are not given a very good choice, since we must choose between the lesser of two evils.
The election system is flawed because the regular man can not run with ample levels of success, and we can blame both partisan and media for this.
The idiocy continues with our leaders in office. They cant quite comprehend what actually makes this country run and our clouded by the gripes of the general population which only wants what benefits them, and not everyone.
Seems there are alot of people in the general pop that like to complain about big corporations and their profits. They want to shut down corps because of either personal experiences theyve had or success. That simply is not good for anyone.
Its a very simple concept when it comes to the wellness of the population and employment. It seems the governments misinformed solution is to create jobs. When the government creates jobs, they are public sector jobs, which drains the taxes that are collected, and we dig deeper into the deficit and devalue our country. We look at tiny pieces of the problem for solutions instead of try to solve the problem by looking through the steps of cause and effect.
Problem: Unemployment is high
Solution: Create public sector jobs
Effect: More jobs are being paid with tax money reducing the input/output of taxes, putting us in the poor house.
Problem: Unemployment is high
Solution: Assist the big evil corps with benefit programs that encourage the expansion and employment of workers.
Effect: Corporations are encourages to expand, putting more people into the private sector workforce, allowing the government to collect more in taxes, reduce the spending deficit, start living in the black on balance sheets, increase the value of the country, allow for more programs that encourage private sector work, decrease the employment rate further, collect more taxes, etc.
Not a hard concept. But when people lead the country that are not affected by their own decisions, we never get to this point. The general population is helpless because the ignorant far out number the educated, and those that get in positions that can make a different, suppress everyone else.

we get control of all three houses again. It's going to be mean and dirty, but the future survivial of this nation depends on us getting control of our government again before it's too late (and it may be already). President Obama and his liberal supporters have shown us the real nightmare of their future, and IT IS US. Hopefully enough people will wake up from their cash-induced sugar rush.
run for office!
