Give us 7 trillion dollars or there's gonna be another depression. Let us take away your civil rights or the bad, bad terrorists are going to attack us. Give us more troops in Afghanistan or we're gonna lose the war.

I'm in good company. That is what they called people who opposed the Vietnam war, as well. They also called that to people who advocated putting flouride in the drinking water (communist plot to prevent tooth decay).

The far right and the far left agree more than they disagree and then there is the sicko combination of the two.

Anyway the far right , the far left and the hybrid of the both it seems all want to overthrow the US government.

As I have said before the 9-11 conspiracy movement is just a group of neo nazis , left wing fascists , radical communists and drug addicts trying to bring down the US government. Eveything they say is just propaganda for their social and political goals. They are not out to inform people they are out to misinform people.

They know they will never get their way as long as the US government exists.

There is a red -brown alliance.

What drugs do these types of addicts usually use? Any and all, or are there specific ones?

Now there's a tautology we can all agree on: the US government will not be overthrown as long as it exists!

Exclamation

Power to the right people !!!!!!!!!!! What would we replace the US government with? Chairman Mao, Kim Il Sung, Hitler all had their ideas. They were intellectuals no less. Mao was always complaining that the chinese didn't respect intellectuals. It's a shame no one in the US respects intellectuals.

The far right and the far left seem to be the only Americans who benefit from the government.

I don't think people want the government to be overthrown, but it would be nice to see it reformed and shrank dramatically.

Right now, 1/3 of all working Americans are government employees. According to the Department of Commerce, federal government employees are paid an average of over $119,000. The 2/3 of American workers in the private sector weren't able to vote ourselves pay increases like government employees have. We earn substantially less even though we're the ones paying the salaries of government employees. As government pay goes up, our pay is shrinking and we're losing jobs. In other words, the government paycheck receiving hogs riding in the wagon keep getting fatter while those of us pulling the wagon are becoming weaker and fewer in number. Eventually, it'll reach the point where the wagon grinds to a stop. Plus, there are millions of people on welfare, prison inmates, private military contractors, food stamp recipients, think tanks and artists receiving grants, and other people taking us for a ride. It's not sustainable and even if it was, we definitely have a right to be tired and upset. Average Americans working in the private sector are overburdened.

Laughing I hear ya. I need to hurry and get my ass back over there so I can pay 1.8% income tax. Bankrolling bureaucrats, Israel, and Wall Street bankers isn't cheap!

Sincerely,
