My feelings are that we need a to impose term limits on every political office. That is the only way we are going to take back any political party. The establishment politicians have a lock on those seats. Most have been there for so long that they think they own it and don't have to listen to the citizens. Term limits would go a long way to getting rid of the ash and trash quickly.

Hey arrow, If you get a sex-bot for yourself you might want to include your bot in your will. Lawyers are looking at these kinds of issues now. Don't abuse your sex-bot, you could end up in jail. Will you be able to rent out your sex-bot? Who will be the first sex-bot pimp?
Corporations are trying to gather all of the open pollinated seeds (food seeds) and shelve them. Open pollinated is the ability to produce from the previous years crop of seed. Hybrids will not produce viable seed. The corporations want these Hybrids to replace the old open pollinated varieties, thus insuring them a toal control of market and food supply.

Here's an example of a conversation I had with a "republican."
Me: Too much cheap labor avialable.
Him: If labor costs were higher my business would close.
Me: That's how the free market works.
Him: Making sandwiches is not worth $12.00 an hour.
Me: That's not supposed to be entirely your decision. The workers make their best deals, and sometimes that includes benefits too.
Him: No way am I paying benefits!
Me: That's fine, but if the workers can find a job that does, they'll migrate there.
Him: They're not worth that much!
Me: Then you have to either find ways to increase efficiency or reduce costs in other areas, or fail.
Him: No way - we just need more minimum wage workers!"Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost." -- John Quincy Adams

Great point AngelaTC! I like that idea too. Ofcourse that places more power back into the hands of states.

As far as Islam goes, the ultimate goal of radical Islamists is to implement Sharia law and force all to abide by it. Rest assured, most people in Islam are peace loving folks, but, even within their ranks, are those who wish to implement an Islamic state.
The question now becomes will the American people stand up to say "NO WAY!!!!" To enemies foreign AND domestic. This partially was the impetus for my question, due to the fact that there are some who say that we, as a nation will never cease to exist but the actions required for a return to the Constitution, and a Republic, seem to be non-existent. Further, how does one undo 50 years of Socialism seen as Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, etc and make it truly fair and equitable for all?"I'm An American, and I'm PISSED OFF!!!"
