Whos cares how parties are labeled. The labeling and posturing isnt anything accept power grab that both parties participate in even on the flipside. Hell both want you to focus on party rhetoric. Look here at us not at what we're doing. If one party loses both win collectively, some individual politcians may lose, but collectivily another sacrificial pig will fall into rank and take their place and he'll play the game in hopes hes not as quickly taken out.
Real issue is raising credit limit to cover costs expenditures and future policy. If they vote to raise it, and they will like every other time historically depicted.. will they really focus on controlling spending or easing the fallout? Historically it has shown they havent. And with the current prez's plans for spending on healthcare and social types of reform + war efforts, is it statistically possible that spending will be controlled. It doesnt seem so to me.
What can the common man do. Not much. Vox populi prefers to be entertained with idiots and their miss sayings on network tv. Much like if there favorite teams rival fumbled a easy pass. So much more entertaining to sneer and laugh. Gives a sense of self satisfaction i guess. Democracy always fails when trite shit is sold as grand opera. Ram doesnt like csnaps posts and yet posts same crap opposite team. Is it hypocrisy? Or is it personal value systems in what matters? Does a verbal snafu from a rival team have more value than your own team? If so why, and ever thought about?
Take for instance Ram would liek u to vote for michele bachmann because she is apparently an idiot. What good is to come from voting for idiots. Well of course u want people to vote becuase a weak player against your team insures a likelier success. Is that what democracy is to people. Debasing onesides team to get yours on so you can party. Wouldnt it be healthier to have two sides that are intelligent debating it out for the best results. Can we expect to get the best when we prefer the most entertaining and gives us self satisfaction when opposite teams fuck up. Last i checked both parties are representatives of the same team. We short a side we get shorted. Laughs on us.
All i can suggest is worry less on foreign affairs, as much as possible to keep our plac ein line, and focus on growth through education. Fuck no child left behind. If u put all interest in the dumbest than the brightest fail and we'll get level of mediocre idiots. But than again people liek that becuase its equality.Perhaps kill teacher unions and look at public funds. If public funding incentives lead to corruption and fake test scores to secure salaries than thats not good. Could cutback on public funding and try incentives to grow private education more. Let responsibility of the growth of a child fall back on parents and community more. People have forgotten what it means to be responsible. Hell peopel teach their kids that its not lack for ability or effort, but others that hold them back. They blame everyone and anyone. The lack of responsibility only breeds more voters demanding more handouts and bad voters. Education is key and the public school systems suck. Incentives are completely reversed. Seems like the worst u do the more funding u get.
Thats the only possible solution i can seem to find in discourse on ugly politics. Always gets me melancoly feelign whne i get sucked into idiocy of political debate, time and time again i never learn. it is quite addicting to dispell poor theories and ideas and lose focus of the real issues. when really there is no cure by claiming what policy to vote on, or worse team to stand behind. They sell food as poison and the cure as poison. Real reform isnt in healthcare or war but in the education. Just gotta worry more on the basics than this other shit.
- The problem is you talk about not being partisan and at the same time advocate the most far right solutions.ukit
- perhaps its you focusing on labeling solutions instead of looking at possible best solutions.********
- whatever solution i think is best will likely fall on onside of spectrum. why i say dont focus on team stuff********
- jsut look purely at solution and motivations/incentiv... and possible outcomes********
- if it helps u on team front im pro-choice, pro gay marriage. I think tax paid roads through gas tax is good. war is bad.********
- everything im for or agaisnt is on oneside or another. however the philsophy guiding them is all the same********
- i will admit i comment more against lame liberal wargarble than reps. Personally i find the liberal more threatening********
- Statisitcs state they have more money and more edu. That means more capable slingers of garbage philosophy********
- They state it better with bigger words and logical fallicies. Reps have more angelic faith hillbilly gun tote types. They scar me less on policy front********
- scare me less on ability to change policy front. ability to televise perverse ideas********
- You talk too fucking much.DrBombay
