Well, Hitler got a good following too.

Oh-BaH-MaH (say it with soul) has only proven that a devil can capture a nation regardless of what he does with his articulate ability to speak and fancy catchy slogans.


He showed the nation what a bunch of god damned fools Americans can be.

Remember, Hitler was appointed by the President, Obama got elected to be the President. And it wasn't long before German citizens saw the error of their ways. Sure, by then it was too late. ;)

Its obvious that you have a hatred for our system, Max, the sooner you live up to this, the better - for your peace of mind and happiness.
Our political system is far from perfect, reform is necessary, we simply need many more Americans to care and to participate.
No vote...
If your nation is as corrupt and biased as the poll selections....:3oops:

Just for your information, the view on my own nations political systems, and those of most European nations are just as negative.

I will help change all this to the best of my ability now and in the future. Will you?

The American political system is supposed to serve the people. What is so naive about that?

Is it open to corruption and all that other crap on your list? Yes it is, but it still doesn't change the fact it is supposed to serve the people.

SUPPOSE, yes, but lets look at the reality of who it servers, rather than who is is SUPPOSE to serve.

List of countries by Corruption Perceptions Index - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

We could be better. But we're still better than most, and pretty much tied with most of the 1st world.

It doesnt measure real corruption. It doesnt take into consideration the corruption surrounding elections for example. It doesnt cover actual corruption. Nor does it cover corruption that is not yet considered corruption. And again, wikipedia is a lame source.
 
It serves America. Not all of us, not all the time, but it serves America, Her Good and her Bad. So there. Does that answer your question? Or are you fishing for people who either agree with you so you can have a conspiracy circle jerk or people who don't agree with you so you can Debate them over a silly question?

He is just pissed that people are voting that way.

No. It pissed me off that the election process is completely corrupted and that the people in the US are left to select one of two parties(and that Europeans more and more are left choosing one side or the other).

It pisses me of that no matter what the people select out of the two options, most policies are pre-decided no matter what.

No. I should be a global teacher of politics and an anti-corruption dictator. :mrgreen:

Y'all keep reelecting them. They must be doing what the majority of you want. ;)

They must be doing what they trick the majority into believing what they want is. Also they implement most policies no matter if its the republicans or democrats, no matter what the people think of the individual issues. A two party dictatorship is only conceivably better than a one party dictatorship.

They serve the new aristocracy. The exceedingly rich and corporate moguls. They've got us bouncing between two parties which aren't much different, bamboozled into thinking that it does some good. Meanwhile, they sit back knowing their power is safe and making sure that their buddies get money. Just look at what happened with the bailouts and such under Obama. Nothing more than appeasing the aristocracy.

I hate the bailouts.. Its sadly the same here in Europe, although we dont have two parties, all the parties are splitting into permanent coalitions against the other coalition. Politics become more uniform, and more and more policies get implemented no matter if the people actually want it or not.
I personally believe a flaw of the party system is that it will always turn into a non-constructive two side dogfight with the people and democracy being victims and having no say on policies, just select one of the sides. That isnt really democracy. I find that most sad for America though, who brags about their democracy and wants to spread this s*** to other nations.

You are wrong again. Before the reichtag fire, the NAZI party and Hitler already had 30% of the people in their hands. Hitler and the NAZI party had strong support all through the war, until it started going bad. Propaganda was a major part of it. People on the outside could see beyond the propaganda, just like those outside the US can see beyond it today, while the people is enslaved by it.

Are you seriously going to tell me I'm wrong and then repeat what I said but in more detail?

The problem isn't limited to Americans. All politicians are from the same cloth. They're a bunch of jerks no matter where you go. Europe, America, the Middle East...a bunch of jerks who think themselves privileged and above others f'n it up for everyone else.

Unfortunately, anarchy isn't stable.

no

try acceptance and tolerance instead.
Most Americans seem to like things as they are.
A negative view on things is not good, Max.
Why not study the system and find out why?
Forget about trying to change things as you want them to be..

Dav and Jamesrage.. This is a multiple vote poll.. You only selected "the people(I read the other options)"..

My question is this. Did you really read the other options? & Are you really so naive?

So you don't want to hear other people's opinion... in yet another anti-American anti-America thread. :roll:

I want those people to be better informed, thats all. I want people to decide, but its vital that those people are well informed about the reality.

(as oppose to being exploited as election tools for power greedy career politicians).

The people choose the politicians. The people can choose to remove the politicians. Welcome to the American system of government, which is still superior to other systems.

The U.S. government is probably one of the most corrupt along the lines of the EU and the rest of the 1st world nations.

Any proof of this?
Or is this one man's opinion based on one incident.
Corruption festers as few care.
Is good that you seem to care, but the people must clean the government.
Government is not self-cleaning.
The true corruption is in the people, not the government.

What is so idiotically retarded is that you think that you are informed and we, and I, am not. That is not very egotistical of you at all... ;)
