I have no worry about myself Unlike the morons who hate success and those who provide the jobs. Must be miserable living with all that hate you have for the country you live in and those who make it run.

In today's world, if we don't do something NOW to start protecting our borders, we will end up like Europe with suicide bombings and terrorist attacks as the "norm".

What is so great about Sweden, Norway Denmark? Besides having higher cost of living?

Whether you measure progress in the growth of government or the restraining of it, all the strides that can be made in a couple of hard-won presidential terms can be undone in a single election.

Unfortunately, we have reached a point where both parties seem to believe that the government provides the biggest and easiest answer to any societal problem. This creates a double-edged sword with each major election. Not only can the winner undo all of the things that the other party accomplished, but it can then install its own system of values and principles that it will force the other side to abide by, imposing them through the over-powerful and barely limited government.

When the left wins, it installs massive bureaucracy that forces many on the right to swallow programs and policies it finds immoral and unfair. When the right wins, it promises to roll back that same bureaucracy and forces the left to swallow a government it finds immoral and unfair.

This is why we are at each other’s throats. A victory for the other side means several years of an immoral and politicized federal government that has enough power to affect everyone’s life in a myriad of ways, not all of which are agreeable to your values.

Our political differences, in a constitutionally-limited government, should elicit barely more than a shrug from the opposing side. If a government is severely limited in what it can do, then the parties are equally limited in how much they can impose on each other.

I don't hate success or my country. I hate right wing self serving Christians who think they have a moral superiority over everybody else. I also hate people who cheat the system because they think they should live in this country without paying their way. Or they have so much money, their above the laws in this country.
