This is me blogging...I am you. We are complacent.
I am a dissatisfied American voter. I am Middle America - sick and tired of the see-saw that takes place in this country every 4 to 8 years. Weeeee this is fun, up and down, back and forth. But what's more than that is that our system is seriously flawed. Whether we want to admit it or not, our Congress, our Government is corrupt. And the scary thing is, that is not an extremist opinion - that is the truth. And it's not one side or the other...it's BOTH. Republicans and Democrats. Can we please pull our country back towards the middle, where the majority of us prefer to be. Doesn't this make the most sense? Compromise? It's the most key ingredient in a successful marriage, which are hard to come by these days. I wonder why? Could it be because our country is leading by example? So why isn't there a middle party or a prominent third party? Because the money isn't there. Because the money follows agenda and greed is what runs our country.
Why can't we just have a capitalist society where the successful are rewarded; where industries are justly regulated; where our morals and principals remain in tact; where Congress has term limits so they can't line their pockets with lobbyists' money? Are there really checks and balances in place? If so, who checks Congress? It's sure as hell not the President.
Anyway, this is me in a nutshell and I know this post was all over the place, but my plan is to breakdown our flawed system one topic at a time and to hopefully share in a common voice of true change and revamping of our system. Enough with complacency.
