Take a few courses in Political Science and then go on a forum and speak about what is going on.
Clearly you have no understanding of any governmental structure other than what you have placed inside your ignorant mind.
You are no different than the gentlemen in the video.
You have no clear understanding of what is going on in our government or any other for that matter.
When you learn a bit about what the problems really are and how solutions to the problems could be reached, let me know.
Until then, shh.
If you're gonna call people names and be a dick, maybe you could at least provide counter points to the other person's points.

It's amazing how much the public gets for free from the state and federal government and complain that there is too much spending. Try paying to repave just a mile of public road.

Maybe if he went to an ivy league school, he would understand that. He's just another loud voice that people can latch on to.

... and why do jobs go to china? maybe because every burger flipper, shoe salesman, etc, thinks they deserve a gt-r, new iphone, and $400,000 house. Travel the world and see how other countries really LIVE.

... and he says capitalism is better than communism. yeah, we are one new tax law away from a socialist gov't. tax the rich more because they make more.... definitely not capitalism. He is an idiot with a youtube account.
We became a socialist government once the XVIth amendment and the New Deal came into being.

We have an issue with the deficit because the "government" spends on its own agenda, without having the responsibility of worrying about the consequences of over-spending, because "we," "the people" don't hold it accountable.

I like the "rant," though I would argue that the focus is misplaced. If the focus were stop the spending or stop the wars, it would be better placed. Calling him an idiot seems a little much. And as far as the value of an Ivy League education, we've had two straight idiots as the POTUS that are products of the Ivy League, so that hardly means anything meaningful as well. Furthermore, see "Inside Job" regarding Ivy League educators.

Peoples opinions are swayed by what leans their direction. Human nature.

Oh... and for the most part I bet we would agree on a lot of the key points.
I am not that wealthy, and I don't get any breaks. My wife and kids are not US citizens, so I don't claim them on anything.

The businesses and farm were only to state my experience as an employer as well as working for "the man".

Also, I only have a high school diploma, and grew up on a farm.
