What do you really think?

"The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries, which result, gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of Public Liberty."

Washington's Farewell Address - Wikisource

A. Do you really believe that these people who claim to care about us really care about us?

I believe that many of the people in congress, the senate, local gov., etc. are corrupt and have lost touch with the values of our forefathers, constitution and the federalist papers. They are exactly what our forefathers warned against. We fought that war over taxation of 2%-ish, now our taxes swell to 36%+. And no one fucking cares. People continue to demand more "free" shit. "Free" healthcare for example. Yeah let's fuck with that! It works so well in the other countries. Not to mention our government can't even fix our roads and people want them to suddenly take over an industry that is a 1/4th of our economy. But anyway, you also have to realize that there are good people in our government. People who really care about the people, like Ron Paul.

B. Why do you trust our Government?

I give them just enough rope trust wise so they can't really hang themselves too bad. I really don't get my hopes up is what I'm saying. Though I pretty much do trust my government over any other nations government (99.9% of the time). We have issues but not nearly as bad as most of these other nations. I also remeber that yeah, America has done some bad shit but they have also done a lot of good.

C. Do you believe these candidates will honestly bring any change?

Nope, not Obama or McCain anyway (Libertarian candidates yeah). However I am voting for McCain. I do this while holding my nose. He is not a Republican and neither is Bush or any other of those assholes who hide behnd the name. A real Republican is a Libertarian. I respect McCain's war experience and I do feel he has one up on Obama on that one. And he is a low tax, low spending, no pork barrel spending kind of politician, and I like that. He also is pro gun and gun rights which I am. He wants offshore drilling and I do too. I also agree on the war and I'm anti-socialised medicine. But we differ on a lot of things. Like gay marriage, womens rights, I'm not religious at all either, drug laws and a few others.

And Obama, my god I don't even have enough space to bitch about this socialist. Handouts, bail outs, "free" medicine and tax hikes spell out doom for our economy. Were not even in a recession now and listen to the bitching! It can get MUCH worse people. On social issues like gay marriage, drug laws, enviroment (to a degree) and women's rights I agree with him. Other than that I disagree completely.

I hate both of these assholes but I will be first in line to vote (It's my first time :) ).
