I did not vote today. The voting system is completely corrupt and broken. I have absolutely no confidence in this system.

Corrupt thugs are in control of the United States of America. Our country is being destroyed by design.

@joygarner They problem is that corporations/banks/the elitist class is not paying enough taxes.

[joygarner]

It does not matter how much money we dump into education, the literacy rate continues to plummet in the US. Throwing more money at it won't solve it! The highway funds are PLENTY. The problem is that the bureaucrats keep looting the funds. Further looting of the taxpayer's is NOT the answer! The problem is NOT that we are not paying enough taxes.

The 2 parties are NOT mudsling they simply tell

the truth about the other.The candidates make

the case either is electable but the people vote

for them regardless.

RT managed to pack more cliches into the first 30 seconds of this show than I could have ever imagined possible. Hollow wonk-ism at its finest.

Muppet!

There's only the "How do I get my left pocket fat?" & the "How do I get my right pocket fat?" party.

$4 billion Election Campaign.

When will US citizens get their heads out of their arses and start to hold their politicians to account for corruption.

The only western country where the rich get richer and the poor get fucked over and out

@StormyWeather21 its not that they don't show things about russia... its what they show about russia and the US... they talk about corruption in the US and show paint ball kids in russia when Russia is number 154 and the US is 22 in the corruption perception index... they talk about democracy but its quite funny when Russian presidents are handpicked by the Russian oligarchy and people who spread this get killed like Alexander Litvinenko... lol RT is just the Russian fox news...

@MrNomad81 your right..!., that's my point too, Therefore it is not the American ppl , which r in fact quite responsible, for allowing these criminals hijack their government, sure.! but the one being In Power, is still the one that putted these clowns, such as Obama and its ilk, in power in the first place , why else wold someone put One in power if not to control him .?? So u see, we get right back to London for the Guilty (puppet-masters),to the City of London, not Eng. as such.

I am so glad the Republicans grabbed control of the House of Represenatives. Hopefully now they will NOT ratify the START Treaty with Russia. Putin and his pals cannot be trusted.....ever!
