as usual, med, you take cliche and spout it as if it were profundity. try looking beyond the simple minded rhetoric and you might find a rather unpleasant truth. that neither party has your best interests at heart and that the people are just a bunch of ignorant dupes to the rabid political animals we naively believe are representing us.

republicans have traditionally catered to business, giving just enough to string them along while using them to grow their own power base. democrats are playing the other side of the street. they hand out just enough to the people to keep us indebted to them and hoping for more. they play on the greed of the masses, just as their counterparts count on the greed of big business, to expand their power; never really making a difference, but giving the impression of benevolence. of course the ignorant masses will flock to the free handouts promised by these charlatans, even more so when times are hard.

the most glaring difference between these two methods is that business is far more efficient at taking advantage of the small bones thrown to it by government.

it's far too easy to blame those shadow masters for the destruction of our freedoms and it masks the true culprits behind our gradual enslavement. businesses that genuflect before their republican masters and the unthinking hordes that followed behind their new messiah chanting "change", these are the ones that are truly to blame. we are gladly forging our own shackles far more efficiently than any shadow government could ever manage. blind belief and obedience are more effective than chains and ignorance is more useful than regulation to those who hope to gain control over us.
