We need a true change, as the current political system, above even the town level in some instances, is so far out of touch with the voting public that elected them as to throw serious doubt on the actual "democracy" of our entire government.
That congressional apointees can go fully against campaign promises with narry a slap on the wrist, vote how they please, and ignore the principles that they produced to get elected, is a clear indication that there is a fundamental flaw in our governmental model. Sadly, the old "everyone votes for everything" policy will never be feasable to ennact, so we must therefore hope that we can obtaine, through some means, stricter guidlines towards following through on campaign promises (within reason of course). It's sad when our representatives (not every rep, but most) fall so out of touch with the base of people who elected them. One of the faults we must deal with I guess...

If Warren voluntarily put his money where his mouth is, stroked a check to our Treasury for few hundred million, I'd be impressed but I still would not agree. As I see it, liberals have tried a variation of "tax and spend" by spending first and putting off the tax part as long as possible. Now that chicken has come home to roost. Tea Party wants to behead, pluck and eat that chicken (and eat all its eggs to make sure no more chickens are coming later on), and I trend to agree. I'm sure your shocked to hear those words from me... > > Max > -- > Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
