Nail on the head. :thumb: We need a strong third party in this country. Everyone hates communism but we as a nation keep voting in delegates of just two political parties that are BOTH half communist. Conservative republicans desire to control social aspects, ie: gay marriage, abortion, birth control, etc... and liberal democrats desire to control the economy, ie: Obamacare(put healthcare,20% of GDP, under federal control), cutting military funding to "balance" a budget because they spent too much(Clinton did this), or just plain spending us into an abysmal amount of debt:banghead:. The exact polar opposite of the communist party is the libertarian party. They believe that only enough taxes should be levied to maintain/expand infrastructure and fund the military and that the taxes levied will thereby change, sometimes drastically, from year to year based on demand ie: natural disasters, wars, etc...
Side note: Every politician that utters the word "democracy" should automatically NOT be voted for. They do not even know that the form of government in the U.S.A. is a representative republic.
I fear that even with a strong third party that the corruption in our elections is so rampant that a third party can't win, hell I don't think that the GOP can win since the dems have the unions and press in their pockets (or that could be the other way around - the unions and press have the dems in their pockets). I really fear for our country and our grandchildren, I believe that most of our constitution will be null and void in a generation or two unless something drastic happens. Being ex-military and working for the Army now I hate to say it but revolution certainly seems to be looming.

Do you seriously think it will take 2 generations? I used to think so as well. But, at the rate things are going down hill since his re-election, I believe it will now be in our lifetime. Sad but looking more and more true. :banghead:
Your right Airborne....the GOP can't win..first they don't have a decent candidate and second they damitcrats have bought and paid for about 47% of the votes with welfare checks. NO one is going to change things until the people wake up and realize that the checks they are getting will stop when the country is bankrupt. Maybe then at least some of the illegal aliens will go home too.

I contend the elected Federal Leadership IS bankrupt: spiritually, morally, ethically, intellectually and ($17 trillion+) economically. Informed voters with character, knowledge of factual truths and fortitude of conviction are harder to find than the Malaysian aircraft.
