I hear what you are saying , but my red flag is we as a nation rights are slowly but surely being taken away.
This is still the richest country in the world, but we don't treat every american citizen like it's true.
There are too many reports in history that nations like to start false wars for their own agenda.
I say that is my problem with this country's goverment.
I belive we have very evil elitist in this country who don't value americans as a whole.
The love of money is the root of all evil and men who make the most have a lust for more even if they don't need it.
Corporations and Bank institutions have a monopoly over the goverment and the american public it's called "DEBT".
I wake up some days shame to be an american citizen, other countries knows all of our dirt, but we as americans seem to look the other way.
Hitler fooled his people they way G.Bush is doing right now.
The next "MAJOR" tragedy in america will unleash a police state and like I posted the other day the president and vice president will have total dictatorship control over the american people WHEN IMPLEMENTED.
Everything else IMHO doesn't matter.
I hear you , but look at it this way,,,,,,
the very rights you think we are losing really never existed. So in a way your saying we are going down hill but its the perception that is going away. Look at the way we treated people over history, enslavement, womens rights, antisemetic against jews, italians, irish, etc. Yet each rose up and gaines respect in the new world.
The sweat shops, chinese railway workers, Japanese encampment, Native Americans, Kent state, Civil War, the list goes on. We believe we have evolved but not entirely.
Yet we are a compassionate country from time to time.
Eny, I don't think things have really changed for the worse, its jut that Money Barons have been there from the beginning and use power for the good of their families and the good of the country.
At the same time look around at each country and you'll find many similar or paralell events.
Except not all countries use Genocide. Thats over the top and while I am no Bush fan, concentration camps of civilians are not prevelent.
Or are they???
