SCARY!!!

Voters had better start paying attention, or it will be too late by the time they realize that their freedoms are being slowly chipped away, year after year.

And we still keep re-electing them !?!?

No wonder our severely bloated, do-nothing, bought-and-paid-for, corrupt, arrogant, elitist government grows and grows to nightmare proportions, violating the Constitution in more and more ways every year:

• dysfunctional legal system, and perversion of the laws to do the very things the laws were supposed to prevent;


• such as the tens of thousands of abuses of eminent domain abuse from 1998 to 2002; who knows how many since 2002 . . . and it was decided by the Supreme Court that doing it is OK ;


• spying on citizens; wire-tapping and unlawful search and seizure of citizens without a warrant; ignoring Habeas Corpus;


• secret prisons,


• torture; we even torture our own soldeirs . . . just ask Spc. Sean Baker (he was beaten and brain damaged at Guantanamo Bay and no one has ever been held accountable);


• Gerrymangering,


• corpocrisy, corporatism, the race to the bottom;


• government excessively influenced by a few with vast wealth and power;


• extremely irresponisible intelligence about WMD that lead to unnecessary war in Iraq;


• extremely irresponsible administration was totally unprepared to maintain order in Iraq (i.e. to prevent looting, chaos, and murders);


• Homeland Security is a complete joke when sea ports and borders are practically wide open and ports are operated by foreign corporations;


• politicians that want votes and cheap labor, refuse to secure the borders, ports, and enforce the law, which has forced net losses of over $70 billion per year onto U.S. citizens;


• despite New Mexico and Arizona declaring a state of emergency, borders are still nearly wide open and the Senate has voted to grant guest worker privileges (a.k.a. amnesty) to 12 million illegal aliens;


• negligence and incompetence of the FEMA and the federal government in New Orleans; massive waste and decades of corruption; despite warnings about New Orleans for years, nothing was done by federal and local government; funds to strenghten the levees were plundered and redirected;


• despite warnings about securing cock-pit doors, and the movements of illegal aliens within the U.S., the federal government can not ever connect the dots, much less prevent planes from being used as missles . . . not even when to protect the Pentagon itself . . . all despite the numerous warnings;


• rampant election fraud, and no one held accountable ?


• abused presidential pardons, even for felon buddies that pled guilty, like the 140 felons pardoned by Bill Clinton ?


• selective or insufficient enforcement of the law; some obviously are above the law; especially corrupt politicians,


• the refusal of bought-and-paid-for incumbent politicians to ever pass any common-sense reforms (e.g. One-Purpose-Per-Bill, campaign-finance-reform, balanced-budget-amendment, tax reform, etc., etc., etc.)?


• meddling, corrupt middlemen (government and insurance companies), and greedy lawyers that are destroying the healthcare system;


• the USPS stealing mail in my area (5000 people affected); stealing it out of those blue mailboxes; it's no longer safe to pay bills with a bank-check by USPS mail; ?


• unfair advantages of corrupt incumbent politicians,


• an unfair and ridiculous tax system, and the refusal to reform; Congress likes it just they way they have abused it; in fact, they add more complexity and confusion to it every year;


• the failure of the Congress to declare war (the Constitution states that only the Congress can declare war, but our cowardly Congress has abdicated that responsibility to the Executive Branch in all wars since WWII); that way, if it goes badly, they can blame it on the executive branch, and if things go well, they can take credit for it;


• the growing problem of coporations stealing pensions and disability (such as ASRCO), and corrupt government is complicit;


• despite warnings about pension systems, the PBGC and pensions are $450 billion in the hole;


• declining quality and increasing cost of public education;


• rampant ponzi-schemes perpetrated by the U.S. government (e.g. Social Security, Medicare, Federal Reserve);


• despite warnings about Social Security, Medicare, and 77 million retiring baby boomers, they continue to plunder (steal) the surpluses that would now keep them solvent; to make it worse, politicians pander to buy votes for a prescription drug plan that will cost several hundreds of billions more per year (and escalating fast, with the skyrocketing cost of prescription drugs);


• $8.4 trillion National Debt, Social Security $12.8 trillion in the hole (surpluses in the form of worthless bonds), $32 trillion private debt nation-wide, huge trade deficits, and more deficits planned for years to come, and government spending, borrowing, and printing money continues to increase;


• outrageous pork-barrel, graft, bribery, and corporate welfare, while our troops risking life and limb;


• and the general fiscal and moral bankruptcy of the government.

If voters like what they see above, then they should keep re-electing the very same incumbent politicians year after year . . . but enjoy it while you can, because it can't last much longer, and the inevitable consequences will be painful.

This seems like one of those mistakes that'll be difficult for us to over-turn once we restore our government back to the people. Arguing with the Supreme Court doesn't get you very far in the United States nowadays.
