The First Step in Crippling Our System of Government Is To Convince   
   
people that it is worthless and can't fix anything. This is not true. It is FUD. But, the more people can be convinced that the system cannot deal with current problems, the closer it comes to making that so.

I'm beginning to wonder if there isn't an organized group whose goal is the destruction of our system,in the hopes that they'll be able to impose whatever system it is they have in mind. I really am.

We have a viable system of government in the USA. I have not found one that is more capable of governing a nation as large and diverse as this one. So, when I hear people who pretend to care about government spreading the word that "All is lost," "It's too late," or "It's hopeless," I have to wonder if the real goal isn't to destroy the system to replace it with something they don't seem to want to define.

Negativism is not a system of government. It is not an economic system, either. Negativism is a destructive force. Now, it may come from genuine pessimism, of course. But, in 2010, it seems too well-organized to be that. So, it makes me wonder. It really does.

Has anyone else noticed what seems to be organized negativism? Shall we discuss it?

Hey DUmmie, if we have the best system of government for a large country, then why is your side trying to destroy it from within?

I heard a radio talk show host say the other day:
"America will survive Barack Obama.  Whether it can survive the morons that elected him is another matter."

I favor restricting voting privileges to only those people that actually pay taxes and own property.  SOOOOOOOO many DUmors will starve.   :evillaugh:

None of them seemed to have any problem at all with negativism from January of 2001 to January of 2009.  I wonder what changed?

More stupid, far too early in the morning. I need moar coffee.  :thatsright:
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Pay attention DUmmies!

The government we have now is not what it was ever intended to be!

So yes, we do need to change into something a little bit closer to the one that actually built this country to it's current size and strength, and not the one you slugs envision where you get to tell the rest of us what to do!
