Government - July 2006

I agree with Bono on his statement on poverty in Africa, but what about the US. There are children here that go to bed hungry and there parents work for minimum wage and work hard and don't have medical care for there children or themselves and don't even get a good education. So why is it this away if u are in a foreign country u can get all these services free,but not here .

I believe justice and truth is guidence to a free democracy when these factors are bent for what ever reason failure is not far off.To me in american from all churches religion is a tool use to justify someone means nothing of good has to be hidden the words of God are blunt and direct and out front not hidden nor dresss up.

True statesmen are rare. What we have now everywhere are two-bit politicians who do not have the interests of citizens in heart. Most of them are autocratic, corrupt and self-serving. They are the cause of all ills within nations and without. What we need now is a system of government run by citizens without the need for politicians. A government by the people, for the people and of the people -- minus the politicians. Surely, the technological advances we have today can be used to create such a system, if only we take the time to explore this seriously.

members of my family have vsited washington quite a few times. My dad had a large part in a law meant to protect children from sexual preditirs (the law was named after the girl but for the life of me I can't remember). My point is, that after speaking to government officials repeatedly, they only seem to care about votes and making money. What exactly happened to the great Presidents/elected officials of old?

I keep reading in this forum (and hearing in everyday life) that being a liberal is a negative thing in the USA, when liberalism is a philosophy believing in freedom of speech, religion, etc., which is what the USA was founded upon. All citizens of the USA are liberals, if they believe in the ideas set forth in our constitution. I also see many trying to equate liberalism with communism. Please read up on these two subjects. As stated above, liberalism is a philosophy -- one that disagrees with government control. Communism is made up of political policies which do believe in government control. Is everyone just not thinking for themselves, anymore in this country? Not wishing to become educated, at least a little bit, about the topics they wish to discuss? There is such a growing gap between us. This country is not an "us against them" nation. I love my country, even when I disagree with its politics. Don't you? Whether a Rep or a Dem or otherwise?

Just wondering. And for the record, I have wanted him to be impeached from the 2nd year he was in office. I think he's an idiot. (And no, i'm not a democrat. I hate Kerry too)

You would think our Goverment would know taking good paying jobs out of the U.S. for cheap laber hurts the U.S.A. Replaceing $25.00 per hr. jobs with $10.00 per hr. does not pay taxes. It does not help feed us. It does not bring prices down. Why can't our goverment see leting jobs leave the U.S. is a big mastake?
