How do you see the "overturning" process taking place?

Unfortunately, our democratic government has already been OVERTHROWN.
It has been overthrown by CONGRESS and two inept, or crooked Presidents.
If Americans were to take action, it wouldn't be considered civil disorder, it would be action TO RESTORE OUR DEMOCRACY AND CONSTITUTION.

That is my feeling. But I think our Gov't was overthrown 1913 by the Federal Reserve. Ever since the inception of the Fed we have been enslaved by Bankers.

It's one thing to help your ill son. It's another to start giving out your money to people you have no affiliation with. You should be allowed to do what you want with your money without being judged. Socialism here we come!

Sounds like another Obama slogan = nothing.

Funny because many still think I'm crazy or just a sore loser over obama.

When I tell them it wasnt about obama or mccain they think im just over exagerating..

We will see I guess.. oh yeah somewhere out there there is a RED LIST with my name on it.

This can only go one direction from here, so lets get it on.

perhaps they should redo the tax laws, thusly:

1) anyone who wants to pay taxes, can. they will get incentives to do so, like free college, free medical and dental, increase pay in social security checks, guaranteed unemployment if they get laid off/fired, and first dibs at government jobs.

2) anyone who doesn't want to pay taxes, gets to keep all their money, but no incentives.

the other thing that might work better for the economy, is to build guild like organizations where people buy goods and services from each other. if it costs more, just tighten the belt, so that we can rebuild the economy and help each other thrive

one of the problems was when the cheap stuff came in, we all got greedy and quit shopping at mom and pop businesses, who shortly thereafter, went out of business. now all there is is chain stores, with products made by slave labor overseas. people will still shop there, especially if mom and pop places open again and more jobs are created

I' m sorry Wupy, make sure you apply for unemployment pronto.
It may not be much, but its money you earned and its due YOU.
Also dont forget to reapply for all the extensions due you, provided they last.


I have been collecting and will continue to do so. There are no jobs here in wonderland so......I got my hand out and i'm not ashamed at all.
My husband is down to 20 hours a week :shk:
Also hit all the food pantries and overall, get what you can get brfore its all gone

God help us all.

My feeling is everyday brings me closer to homelesness and tyranny and a certain death in a camp somewhere.

I think it may have been this investment alone that made our economy collapse

Ahh the cursed horse of the Denver Airport. The guy that made that horse was killed by it. He was an artist from New Mexico.

The Denver Airport is a conspiracy in, and of itself.

the only way i'll fight them is if they resist arrest. stop the war, create jobs that solve problems instead of relying on the military industrial complex to "keep the most powerful nation on earth safe from terrorism" by destroying the middle east.

when did we turn into such wimps?

Well I would say welcome to the club (member since Jan 23) but to paraphrase Grouch Marx, any club that would have me as a member, against my wishes, is not one I would want to be a part of.

Plugging away with no results just makes me think more and more of going Grizzly Adams.
