Has our government gotten too rich and made us too poor? Remember the old addage," keep your government poor and you will be free" or, " As government increases, liberty decreases". Are we really above the guillotine? Shouldn't we do something or just sit back and let our couches be taken from under us?

I almost would believe that we should re-write the constitution and the bill of rights, because everything has become so washed that everything has fallen apart and became corrupt. I do not believe in another war. But as the American people we do need to stand up for what is right, but because celebs and such are more important, that will never happen, people will never become involved with politics, so i guess sit back and watch the country run down the toliet. 3rd world here we come

Yes we are.
However revolution does not always mean taking arms. Look at all the candidates this season. We the people have finaly been offered a choice of a candidate who is not beholden to corporate interest. That actualy knows respects and defends the constitution, and has the voting record to back that statement up.
Learn about all the candidates there are some decent ones out there. Just make sure that while you are looking you do not miss Dr. Ron Paul. He tells the truth, he has the courage of his convictions and could be the best thing to happen to this country in decades.
Sorry I'll stop the shameless promoting. Seriously though if we do not do something soon it will be revolution or slavery our rights are being striped away rapidly.

There is a revolution taking place already!
It is a revolution of thought.
This country is currently going through more soul-searching than it has gone through for quite some time.
There is widespread VOTER'S REMORSE among people who know they were had by the master of election season deception and seduction, Karl Rove.
There is almost a NONE OF THE ABOVE ! attitude about the political candidates of either party because we feel we are being taken for granted by both parties.
Karl Rove, Dick Cheney, and George W. Bush pulled their slick game on us and will leave a big mess behind when they leave.
They perverted our Constitution and ruined the way we are perceived abroad even among our traditional friends and allies.
This latest give away immigration bill is a perfect example of how our representatives from both parties just aren't getting it!
After 9/11, there wasn't a more appropriate time to get our southern border secured, but that didn't happen.
Why !
We are due for a revolution all right !
A revolution that will take place at the voting booth !

A round of applause for Cecil T -- I've wanted a "none of the above" choice for years! I think there are going to be a lot of Democrats who have "voter's remorse" after they hear that the Democrats backed down today -- even former President Carter. After months of hearing about "changing course" they've tucked their tails and run for cover. I'm totally disgusted with all of them, Democrats and Republicans alike.

historic previous has shown returned and returned returned that something is feasible... From Liberals to Conservative to Libertarians... from Democrats to Republicans to Independents... tensions are truly starting to be and boost. (Revolutions take years to boost, and whilst they're shifting finished steam forward, no longer something can truly end them... 'seem on the Arab Spring for reference'.) Now if it takes place its unlikely to be over our little social alterations yet rather over the uncomplicated reason discovered on the middle of yank perception - Freedom and Liberty. uncomplicated themes of issue comprise yet are actually not constrained to; the NSA enjoyed ones spying application, Presidential growth of powers (Bush and Obama), Congressional gridlock, Congressional Corruption by way of wealthy pastime communities. Our continually starting to be national debt. and spending, our cutting-edge intervention remote places coverage (wars) and our continually starting to be earnings taxes of the two the wealthy and undesirable. ninety% around the political spectrum agree on one undertaking; our liberties and freedoms are immediately fading and the Federal gov't authority is starting to be. If something might start up a insurrection, this may be the subject (Liberty & Freedom). I are anticipating the main considerable gamers may be: our state Militias, Veterans, The Tea-occasion, The Libertarians & The Occupy Wall highway stream all coming mutually in the tens of millions. regrettably (and pretty probable) if the government became violent on the individuals, guerrilla conflict might probable be used by way of the individuals as became achieved in the resourceful conflict. Now enable me be sparkling, i'm condoning such an action to ensue, yet my own opinion from my analyze is that one will ensue ultimately one way or yet another on the cost tensions are going! one undertaking is particular, Congress has a 10% approval score and Obama has a 30 some thing % approval score so human beings are actually not happy with their government!

I find it odd that the party of small government, the Republicans, grow the government to obscene levels, while the democrats have made it smaller (remember under Clinton we had a surplus!)

I seriously don't think my fellow americans have the stomach for armed conflict against the government. They have got the military, but some would side with us. Heck if there was a revolution they may even use nukes on us. I would put nothing past this government if the American people decided to take up arms against it.
