The single greatest aspect of the United States when it was founded was the dramatic reduction of a central government. The oppressive government of King George was replaced by the Constitution, which gave freedoms that had not been enjoyed throughout all of human history. The Founding Fathers' commitment to keep government out of our lives has resulted in the most free and prosperous nation in the world, even over 200 years after its founding. Unfortunately, with King Obama bringing the oppressive hammer of government down on the American people, the prospect for future American prosperity is looking very bleak.

Is there anywhere left in the US where people value freedom and understand personal responsibility? The sad thing here is the number of auto workers that are not working yet still receiving 80% of there pay for not working.

They are strong pro-union and "democratic". They vote these people in. They did this to themselves. Expect THEM to blame someone or something else. It must be a "vast right-wing conspiracy".
