it is time to defrag, fix the registry, and reboot.

Very True!

@SlackerSociety - In many ways we a area richer fairer place than in 1776. But ideals that got us here have gone to hell. I see us selling out to a dictatorship of the elite. Making ourselves serfs to them 

All very true. These things have been played out over and over again throughout history, civilizations and governments. If I had my choice, I don't think I would have chosen to be born here at the ending of this one. However, the bright side is that we get to see so many Biblical prophecies fulfilled. 

@RulerofMasons - A Central bank is one thing, running the government on a deficit is another. Plus is being the worlds police force a good thing for America?

Trun, a company does not exist to create more jobs.  Corporations want to make money with less workers, that is how you maximize your profits.  So, in other words, we are forced to get crumbs from the government, because to hire workers is much more expensive.  Understand?

@RulerofMasons - I think the problem lays not within HAVING a central bank, but that bank being a private entity that charges interest on the "money" it prints.  If that bank was a gov't owned bank, with the gov't keeping the interest from the loans, the financial climate may look much different (though I know that opens another can of worms for debates)

@RulerofMasons - Think about it it awhile. What does the government produce? Where does it gets its money and power? In all of history, is it the private sector or governments that have killed billions of people in the pursuit of power? Why do you truest government, when it has never been trustworthy?

@grim_truth - It does but that government central bank was supposed to be the main method of the Government funding itself. A far better idea that out present tax system

@trunthepaige - If I'm not mistaken, one of the Dakota's has a central State Bank.  It sounds like it's a system that works well for them.  Of course, the state owns the bank, and keeps interest.  Imagine the outrage if Bank of America were to own that bank and make billions off of the people the way the Federal Reserve has.

@grim_truth - yet it is the same thing as BOA. a private corporation.

Other than nitpicking details and wording I see nothing there to disagree with. 
All parties in D.C. are big government.  As a firm believer in personal freedom, no matter which side I vote for, I lose. 

@RulerofMasons - Far safer than with a totally powerful government and history supports my thoughts on that 

Without a government, what force could prevent american citizens from murdering those deemed unworthy?  What force could protect us from other countries?  No doubt, we need a government, but I guess the debate is a matter of what kind of government.  I believe I explained to you why not everyone can have a job, and therefore government has the responsibility to look out for the left behind, who no fault of their own, could not be a worker.  What you want is the darwinian elimination of those who are left behind. 

@RulerofMasons - What force?  A citizen militia.  Permanent employment isn't necessary when everyone's rights are honored and their brain works.  Figure out what it takes to survive, carefully considering all the variables available to you, and what it costs.  Don't focus on the means, focus on the end result and work from their to find an efficient route that respects the rights of all others.

@RulerofMasons - Don't assume that the most common traditional way to do something is the only way either.  There's an infinite variability of ways to do just about everything.  Use your imagination and research.

@RulerofMasons - Again you are avoiding the real world where that has never happened to one thousandth the degree of murdering governments

"To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical."

We need some kind of new tax code whereby people can choose to only pay for things they absolutely agree with.

i agree with the quotes.  what i don't agree with is that they are prophecies, or that the form of government we have now is accurately described by those quotes.

1. i'm not interested in a government that gives me everything i want... only in a government that promotes fairness in taxes and guaranteed necessities.  

2. the happiest countries in the world, for the past several years, have all been European.  and here's a little study on government corruption: http://articles.latimes.com/2009/nov/18/world/la-fg-corrupt-box18-2009nov18

@flapper_femme_fatale - in other words you want the government to give you more and have more power over you. The two are inseparable. And a funny thing is those happy countries have very high suicide rates. But if your looking for the government to make you happy that is not surprising

So True.
