The federal government has gone out of control. The states have no more true rights. Corporations buy congressmen and senators. And the Tax system is far to complicated for any one, but the educated in such matters or the rich (people that can afford CPA’s and such). I believe the fact that you don’t really own your property was also brought up. The reliance on fossil fuels is a direct threat to national security.

I say more states rights. A flat consumption tax for the feds. Decrease the feds size and increase the local and state government powers. I for one like the idea of my neighbor and not some politician on the east coast determining my laws. These ideals will not come to pass unless some serious actions take place. I am joining my city council and getting involved with local matters first. Also I am going to try to put together some public speeches and forums at the local college. Also when I hear people discussing politics I get involved in the conversation. Any action small or grand will have an affect. These are suggestions that you may decide to use or not too. Whether you agree with my politics or not, just keep active whether on a personnel level with those around you or the community in which you live in. Diversity of thought is key. If enough people get involved we may have something.


Oh ya another good quote: “Those that sacrifice freedom for safety deserve neither” Benjamin Franklin or Thomas Jefferson, I believe.
