Broken Government
I haven't written much about our political situation on here in a while because well, there has been too much shit going on in our political landscape, as soon as I got ready to comment on something, something else even crazier comes up. Most of the crazy shit is republican based and this debt deal is no different.
But lets face it, its both parties. The democrats led by Mr. Barack "Bend Over" Obama who has yet to truly stand up for the middle class and working poor of this country. While the repukes do nothing but try to stop our president officilally now I am saying it, the repukes are racially motivated and they truly do want to see government fail.
If the repukes want to see government fail so much then why run for political office? Why become part of the problem? Why accept a salary while you serve that oh btw makes government bigger. Thats a point for another day.
The point is, this debt deal is more than likely going to end ugly, it forms essentially a third branch of government that makes more cuts unequivocally....without any input from the most important part of this whole process....THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!! You know the 90% of us who are not independently filthy rich? Who will all be most affected by the cuts you make. You know those of us living pay check to pay check.
Where does the American middle class/working poor citizen get their voice heard? If we did, it would clearly show that we don't want medicare, social security or medicaid porgrams touched. Yet the legislators that we voted in don't listen to a damn word from average middle class America. Who do they listen to? Lobbyists, paid for by big, rich coorporate and wealthy donors. Its sickening.
What do you think? I want to hear from people out there, my Canadian readers included....Keith Olbermann unleashed tonight, Agree with him, disagree? He is on Current TV, he gets a little more freedom than the mainstream media to let loose on both parties, I thought he lit up both sides, goverment is broken:I promise I will write more in the coming weeks, its been a busy summer work wise, I have a lot to say and after this horrendous debt deal its time for this blog to start contributing to the collective voices of the extremely pissed off.
