 Does anyone here know even one person who would be able to enter one
 of our underground facilities in case of such trouble? Apart from
 that place in Virginia (?) does anyone know where our underground
 facilities are? (Not talking about subways.) Are any of them designed
 to be "open to the public"? Or are we all expendable?

Two points... First, the "Underground Capital" (Mount Weather, etc.) were
built to early 1950's specifications, and could not have survived a
multiple-warhead attack using high-yield nukes. Even NORAD HQ in Colorado
could not withstand a full nuclear assault. Second, from the start, the
underground shelters were never intended to provide space for the general
public, but only for the political and military elite, along with their
corporate sponsors. This was stated explicitly...

No, i don't.

My recollection is that by the 1970s, most people were mocking what feeble
federal efforts had been made to carry on in case of a US/USSR nuclear
war.  For me, the most ludicrous was not even the "duck and cover" nonsense,
but rather the Postal Service plan to continue delivering the mail.  God
forbid we should miss an issue of Readers Digest!

Few believed in the efficacy of the few shelters that had been built or
conversions of basements in governmental buildings completed.  The government
folks apparently agreed and the shelter notion was quietly abandoned except
for the few DC elite.  While i agree that we are unprepared for nuclear
weapons hitting our cities, it is not probable that anything practical can be
done.  Those backward shelters of the 1950s would have been money wasted if an
attack would have occurred.  There was a controversial British animation film
on this that was shown on PBS.  There was also an American film with the woman
who headed up the NEA for a time playing a major acting role.  Made you wonder
if survival was necessarily the best thing.

The voting is no way to judge whether or not the parties are different.  It is
the end result which is important.  Also some laws have no interest to the
"controllers" who are directing things, thus the politicians can vote their
conscience or the way the people bribing them want them to.  All the other
stuff (voting, having hearings, etc. . .) is window dressing and a carefully
crafted game to lead us to believe that they really are doing the best for us
and that there IS a difference between the two parties, so we will vote for
one or the other based upon PERCEIVED differences which are really caricatures
of our innermost fears and desires, and not take a real look at the system and
start over again with a REAL choice instead of the sham that we have now.
