    From top to bottom and everywhere in between, our government is a complete and total embarrassment to the human race. It should be scrapped in its entirety and completely re-built. I don't have faith in any single person in Washington, Frankfort or anywhere else.

    Someone really should go to jail as a result of this.

    Know1, I don't believe that for one minute.

    Even with all the problems our gubment currently has, we still have the best government in the history of the world. I will take it over any other form that has ever been tried......

    It is blanket statements like that that cause such a divide. I don't hate all democrats, and I don't like all republicans. There are those that are EVIL on both sides of the fence, but equally, there are those that are trying to effectively manage.

    There are simple changes that could be done that would eliminate most of our issues, those changes center around term limits and lobbying.

    FIX those issues, and you fix a whole hell of a lot.

    Later,

    I'll grant that my statement may have been a bit of a generalization, but I disagree that blanket statements like mine cause a divide. All I see is extreme, blind partisanship where one side can do no wrong and the other no right. That is what causes the divide. I'm saying both sides are terrible.

    And I will agree that our SYSTEM might be the best ever, but people have corrupted the system and it's gone horribly wrong. One big tweak that might help is very strict term limits at every level, but the crooked politicians who are lining their pockets from the people they supposedly represent will never let that happen. And despite my efforts, I don't believe that the people will ever start voting out incumbents to force term limits because they can't bring themselves to vote for a democrat or republican.
