I think a major issue with our country today is bipartisan politics period. It's like a wave that eventually becomes a standing wave because there is no equalizer, no end to the blaming this on them or that on this. It's a fundamental problem with our sissyfied society these days. Take accountability for mistakes, find a solution, no matter whose idea it is. If we could work together and not be so fanatical AND let the people vote on each individual issue(using bullet points of course! No more 700 page briefs, that's the antithesis of brief!!!).
And yes, bring back ass whoopings. I believe in a sort of "one up" system. You talk shit, I get to smack you. I assault you for no reason, you can knock me out with a bat. This is a half humorous extreme example and I know that bad people will always take advantage of things but I always learned from physical pain the most. I believe most men do. We are built that way. After enough ass whoopings, I learned that my problems were because of ME, no one else. I and I alone control my actions and reactions. I am free. I bow to no man. Sheep are bred to be corralled and that's what Joe public are, sheep. If we don't get back to the fundamentals that brought us here, and freed us from tyranny and oppression, then its prolly going to have to get way worse to get better. That scares me. People's IQ's drop dramatically when in fear and large numbers. Their executive function ceases and they follow whatever idiot is up front.
Disband Super PACS, term limits in all government offices, everyone pays into social security, drug testing for welfare recipients who are able bodied, pay people to NOT have kids rather than incentivize them to crank them out, oversight of law enforcement AND government, flat taxes for individuals AND corporations(prolly could downsize the IRS at that point and definitely shrink the lawyer budget, no offense to anyone), stop making foreign goods cheaper than ours in our country yet more expensive than their goods in their countries, penalize polluting and child labor nations, penalize terrorist friendly nations, spend the military budget on shit that matters like body armor and proper training and health care not paying some politicians buddies for the bullets AND the bandaids after, de criminalize weed, make jails not for profits and treat corruption like the treason it is. Obamacare sucks and is only here to make the government and insurance companies money. People who couldn't afford health care before can afford even less now because of it and the taxpayers are paying for their health care(which is ok with me to an extent) AND the jobs to police it. Better education and free higher education if it serves the needs of the region where the school is(a la St. Lucia). Stop Wall Street from robbing everyone every so many years. And for f*ck's sake, stop letting the media race bait us, divide us and lead us by the bit to whatever distraction they want us focused on next. It's getting embarrassing. This is why the aliens won't talk to us. Lol.
