I think you are ALL drinking the Kool Aid of one group or another!

You know, I am getting really fed up with all of the discussions that I am reading about politics in this country. Both the conservative and the liberals accuse one another of being brainwashed, and you know what? Their BOTH right. If you ever want to commit MyLot suicide, all you have to do is be a true moderate, because if you try to convince people that there is a middle ground, you might as well be trying to convince them that Satan should be ruler of the universe. All of a sudden you become evil. The conservative and Libertarians swear up and down that the government is running the country into the ground. I've got news for you, people. People have been saying that since this country was founded. People screamed it at the top of their lungs for the 8 years that Bush was in office. A different group of people screamed about it the years that Clinton was in office. And a different group were screaming before that, and so on and so forth back to the beginning of this country. I've got news for you: If America was going to be ruined by a president, it probably would have happened by now. Now, that is not to say that we shouldn't question our government and hold it accountable. We should always do that. But when it gets to the point that you cannot see beyond the wall that divides the party lines, you should be ashamed of yourselves. You might as well be spitting in the face of the founding fathers. Also, get rid of your idiotic senses of entitlement. No one owes you anything, I hate to break it to you. No one owes you an apology. No one owes you money. No one owes you the right to KEEP your money. Grow up. Seriously. The whining on BOTH sides is absolutely driving me up a wall. And another thing, the private sector screws up just as much stuff as the government does. Look at health insurance. Look at private schools (which are no better than public schools I must point out). Look at Enron and Tyco. The private sector ruins lives EVERY DAY, and people act like it is some kind of God that should be worshiped. Give me a break. I consider myself mostly conservative leaning and I want the government out of my life for the most part, but I live in the real world, which is more than I can say for most people. I live in a world where I recognize that people form governments for a REASON, because there are things they provide that I NEED that I cannot get or do for myself. So please, for the love of all that is holy, can we THINK a little before we start shooting our mouths off? Can we do some actual research? Can we stop thinking that the other side is the enemy? Can we stop with the conspiracy theories? Can we try to work together? Can we ALL stop drinking the Kool Aid? Probably not. But I have to get this out there anyway.
