Government is not the solution, it is the problem.

[Danthecockybull]

I want other people to pay for my tuition, because I don't want to

I want other people to pay for my health care, because I don't want to

I want other people to find me a job, because the library with public computers where I can look for a job is 3 blocks away

I want to get paid a wage regardless of whether or not I have earned it

I want you to stop asking me how we're going to pay for all of this; it will come from Obama's magical money tree he says will only grow with our 2012 votes. #ows

Also look up the community reinvestment act CRA, it forced all the banks in 2000 to hold over $1 Trillion in sub prime mortgages. This caused an artificial bubble in the housing sector because people who shouldn't have been buying houses were, and rising the prices artificially high. When the loans for those houses became toxic banks bundled them as securities to get rid of them. They would not have made those loans in the first place if it were not for the CRA.

You are confusing Democracy with a Republic. In a pure Democracy majority rules. The law rules in a Republic.There is no voting in an Anarchist society that is why its called anarchy, ie. no government. The most stable economy the USA ever had was under Andrew Jackson, he got rid of the national bank and vetoed every single bank bill that hit his desk and left them to fend for themselves. Since the gov't wast protecting them they were responsible with their investments.

[Matt Sezer]

What you're describing is anarchy. Democracies have democratic institutions, ie a constutution, that insure people basic rights, even if they're in the 49%. The lack of financial regulation is what caused this financial crisis. If regulations on reserve requirements for derivatives and mortgage backed securities existed, the banks wouldn't have failed.

[kjz28]

In a 100 percent pure democracy if 51% of the people hate me, they can have me executed.Now if the politicians worked within the limits set up in the Republic we were founded as,the corporations/banks would have no pull, like under Andrew Jackson.The banks and business without the aide and support of the government(because if Andrew Jackson's vetoes)had to remain frugal because there was no one to bail them out if they made risky investments.No government in business=more responsible businesses.

[Matt Sezer]

Corporations controlling the country is far worse than a democratically elected government. At least in theory, governments are answerable to the people.

Never forget that bankers greed from Trade Centre blood created this world financial crisis this BBC video explains how it was done and shows some of the leading players. It goes onto say why the governments relaxed the regulations and then were forced to help the banks with our money, and how the bankers are spending our money today. It's all based on blood money and it's sickening. Some of the 1% don't deserve what they have. Please watch and get angry.

[Barack Hussein]

Then don't vote for Obama.

[bill copwatch]

[bill copwatch]

I want to see a smaller police state.
