Political Parties Have Hi-Jacked Our Gov’t

 

To the Editor :

                      

   the two biggest problems with America today are our two biggest political parties have hi-jacked our government & American citizens are no longer really represented. If you join the Democrats & Republicans in ideas that push their political agenda`s thinking that their goals are your goals, you are sadly mistaken. Political parties biggest goal, just like governments is to find a way to stay in power forever whether or not you are served by your supposedly Constitutional Republic. This is why the founding fathers were vehemently against political parties, period.

 

   The Republican establishment believes in unregulated capitalism which means that a few individuals & corporations should be able to make & horde all the money in America to the dedriment of the common citizen. Like it or not today the leaders of industry are motivated by greed unlike the World War Two era of the giants of industry who came from working class families themselves & understood what it was to work & struggle just to survive.

 

   Today their children & grandchildren own & operate many of these business`s & don`t have a clue about the struggles of average Americans & futhermore do not care. Their only concern is about the bottomline & could not careless if you worked 24 hours a day for nothing as long as it benefitted them 100%. This is why they do not want the average citizen in control of their own government & why the party establishment hates movements like the tea party.

 

   If the federal government actually cared about its own citizens it would do what President Eisenhower did in the 1950`s & enact a law that would tax corporate profits at a 90% rate if those profits were not put into the infrastructure, function & employees of said company. This one act would put the majority of America`s dollars back into circulation where it could benefit average Americans & the nations economy.

 

   On the other hand the only difference between establishment Republicans & Democrats is, instead of corporations making & controlling all the money Democrats think government should & government will use it to lookout for the good of government & its agenda instead of yours, just like America`s corporations are doing. Either way someone else controls the money & keeps as much of it as possible out of the pockets of working Americans. Until both parties start putting mainstream American`s interests ahead of their own or, all political parties are abolished, then & only then can we get back to being the country the founding fathers intended America to be Owned & operated by American citizens instead of political parties with special interests & their chosen cronies.
