But they've already taken over. There is absolutely, not enough persons of dignity running this country. Or maybe not enough experienced under the true meaning of FREEDOM. LIBERTY. AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS... It really seems the government is convincing many that life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is too difficult and consists of too many personal and individual responsibilities. Government intervention results narrow and weak minded society. In total agreement. But they've already taken over. There is absolutely, not enough persons of dignity running this country.

This whole mindset really started to pick up steam when everything Greenspan, et. al said or did was the biggest news of the day. In my copy of the Constitution I do not see anything written about the government being responsible for the economy. All of this can be blamed on us, the constituency, for re-electing the same people who caused the problems in the first place. We as Americans need to stop being lemmings. We need to get involved once a month, or once a week, and let our "Politicians" (they are not leaders) know we want them out of our pockets and our daily lives.
