You are correct.

You have to wonder why the govt isn't concerned that the dogs (ah, that's citizens) of this country might soon head for Washington, where they would physically remove all their "leaders" and rightfully rend them into pieces.

Perhaps the govt knows their base ways ......righteous behavior cannot come from the unrighteous.

You are right ........ the state of the nation is not an indictment of the govt or the lying murdering crooked corporations but ultimately an indictment of its citizens.

An analogy :

The fox and the chickens and the farmer.

This nation (the chickens) is being plundered and its people exploited by a corrupt govt that works for big money.

Together they constitute the fox.

The farmer is the public whose responsibility it is to make sure this country remain a republic and responsive to all the people's needs.

Now, do you think the farmer is going to go to the fox and ask him to fix the holes in the chickenwire and otherwise secure the chickenhouse so the fox cannot kill/steal more chickens? (which is what the public is doing if they expect the govt to resolve the problems they are responsible for ).

No, the farmer is going to get his gun and take the fox out of the picture. It is the only way.

If what you say is true, and I believe it is, there is no hope for this country (and Jefferson would say so too).

In my own life, I only know a couple of people worth talking to ........ and I avoid the rest of my species as much as I can as they are nothing but tranced-out sleepwalking consumers.

As far as Washington goes ....... the democrats and republicans are just a bunch of deceiving, thieving, power hungry, self-serving pricks and trash who have no idea of what a public servant is and they are cooperating now to cover each others" asses.

They're all in the same boat and they know it.

These are the kind of lowlifes that your parents would have warned you to keep away from 25 years ago.

Unfit (and probably incompetent too) to run a convenience store, let alone serve in the upper levels of government (can you imagine dubya owning and running a convenience store - he would be out of business in a month.).

Too bad the american people don't give a damn about holding these people accountable.

There is something wrong with the american people ...... they have a slave mentality.

I agree with George Carlin ...... the american people deserve to be pissed on, shit on and fucked.

Even if we assume you are right, the american people themselves have a responsibility to control their own worlds and those of their offspring.

Where I work, we have an arrangement to hire local high schoolers to give them some work experience.

I sometimes converse with them ......... how do you go through 12 years of school and know nothing?

They can't do math without a calculator. If the register did not tell them how much change to give, they would be lost.

They nothing of the nation's history ....... let alone world history.

They don't know about the constitution or the bill of rights .... how their local govt works ...... who their representatives are.

The school system produces nothing but a bunch of consumer clones fit to work within the gears of the machine without questioning anything.

Their parents have taught them nothing ........ but how can they if they don't know.

To me, it is a clear abrogation of responsibility on the citizens" part.

Today is sunday. Today, millions of people sit in front of a tv screen in a stupor ........ in a trance as they watch multi-millionaire professional athletes run up and down the field with a piece of pigskin or shoot it through a hoop.

They could be leaning something about what is going on in their country or teaching their kids something but they talking about what video they'll rent tonight.

This is willful ignorance and an escapist lifestyle.

Hundreds of millions of Neros fiddle while Rome burns.

The populace is asleep.

Still, the govt is in fear ........ fear that they will one day awaken to their plight.

That is the purpose of the Patriot Act and all the other rubbish.

God damn 9/11 and the opportunity it gave Bush and his cronies to hijack this country thru using primal fear to manipulate the people.

Over 40 thousand people are killed each year on the highways and over 100,000 are killed from medical mistakes and the "proper" use of prescription drugs.

But their is no "war" on highway use or doctors or the pharmaceutical manufacturers.

Never mind the terrorists ...... you want to fear something ??

Fear the highways and the medical system.

But the govt is afraid of any possibility of an awakening.

Would they use american troops against our citizens? No doubt in my mind but if they can't quell an insurgency in a small country like Iraq, what could they do here?

I really don't think they have anything to fear as long as the average americans idea of meaningul activity is a trip to Walmart to buy something else they don't need.

To say that the rich lawless are beyond the reach of the law is simply to state the need for vigilante justice ...... something not unknown in the annals of history ........ a logical conclusion for those who do not believe in justice after the grave.

And do you know what his name is ???

Biggus dickus ....
