Another Example that the US government is out of control

what democracy are u living in. u only have a choice between a democrat or a republican. thats like having to choose and eat whole wheat or regular bread for breakfast, lunch and dinner everday all day for the rest of ur life. all other choices are off the menu in america.

Sounds like it's time for rye, oat bran and pumpernickel parties!

TPTB would never let those get off the ground.

I completely agree! The thin veil of "democracy" has finally been pulled off. No more pretense. The people of this country have no voice.

Just because things are not going the way you want politically does NOT mean "the people of this country have no voice." I've lived in places where there was no democratic republic (the US is a republic, not a democracy) -- if you'd lived in some of those countries, you'd see the difference.

Yes, we have a voice. If a huge group goes to the polls and votes for something while others are too apathetic to go, then the voice of the majority of voters is heard. In a country where only 30% of the population ever goes to vote, your political opinion may not be favored.

If you think your political opinion represents the majority of the true feelings of the country, go vote, and urge your friends and family to vote.

Otherwise the country will be ruled by the opinions of those who care enough to go register and vote.

This speaks volumes. Pelosi and the other politicians know that for the most part their constituents disapprove of the health care package in its current form, but they don't care. Pelosi is saying here vote for it even though you know you will be voted out of office. The politicians want this damn health care bill for their own sakes, not the people and some of them are apparently willing to do whatever it takes to pass it.

You got that right, these people don't care about the country, or the American people. They want to pass legislation which they know as Americans come to realize what this really is most Americans won't be happy.

Let me ask you this though. Did you post this thread here, or was it moved here?

The US is no longer run by representatives of the people - the US is run by the large corporations.
