I have been speaking out against the two party political system for years. Thankfully, I think more people are waking up to this idea as well. The two party system has polarized Americans since it's creation. It has been limiting our choices for decades upon decades. 'The lesser of two evils' is exactly what every election, for every office is. You can either vote for a Democrat or Republican, and if you even speak about a third choice you are vilified.
One of the most infuriating things I hear is "Your throwing your vote away!" If one of the two puppets from the establishment, earned my vote, he'd get my vote. You and I can vote for whoever we damn well please! The only wasted vote is the one not cast!
Voter turnout is atrocious! In every Presidential election since 1960, barely HALF of all eligible voters even show up! Mid-term elections, just barely ONE THIRD can get off their ass and cast a vote. Stop attacking those that vote for whom they believe in and start attacking those that are bitching about the system and not voting! Look at the numbers for yourself: [url]http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0781453.html[/url]
If you don't cast a vote, you wave your right to complain. And just think about it, of the hundreds of millions of eligible voters in America, only half of them are determining the fate of our country through the election process. Now you tell me where the wasted votes are.
Divide and Conquer
What's easier to control, a people divided or a people united? I think we all know the answer but we just refuse to acknowledge it. The two party system is perfect for those in power. They have divided the nation's populace into two easily conrolled factions. They have convinced us that the other side is the bad guy, and only use a few issues to do it. They pit nieghbor against neighbor using abortion, handouts, education and now, social security. Regardless of wether or not you agree on other issues, you and your neighbor will forever be enemies if you don't agree on even one of the afore mentioned topics.
And that's how they want it. Actually, some even want to divide us up more! It's blatantly obvious that the left side of the spectrum is trying to further seperate America by economic class and race. They are vilifying anyone making more than $250k a year as a rich S.O.B that isn't paying their fair share, and anyone, and I mean ANYONE who speaks out against President Obama is labeled as a racist! They are using race as a shield! He can do NO WRONG because he's black. That doesn't sound like equality to me! I didn't see black Bush critics getting labeled as racists all over the TV. So why is anyone that speaks out against the policies and agenda of the current President being labeled as a racist?
It's all about division. When they can sperate the American people into smaller chunks, they can manipulate and distract us much easier. When you are worried more about who is a possible racist, and makes more money than you, than you are about what's going on in Washington, they have won. It's all a big distraction so they can continue with business as usual. They will continue to borrow money we don't have and will never be able to pay back, and they will continue to grow the governments power while slowing taking your individual liberty away from you. But you won't even know it because you'll be too busy protesting the racist business owner down the street for being audacious enough to make more money than you!
