Women vs. the Government

Q: What's the difference between women and the government?

A: There isn't a difference, they're both "tax and spend."

Our politicians play us. For years, the American people have been propagandized using various forms of mass media by both political parties, Republican and Democrat. As part of our ongoing "personal development" process, incumbents (and those running for office) play a classic game of "divide and conquer," as evidenced by the ongoing microcosmic (political) flame within regional media as well as those on the national stage. Through the continued use of linguistic "keywords" controversial wedge issues take form: abortion, gun rights, "social justice," discrimination (to name a few) which elicits an almost Pavlovian response, prompting often angry (or emotionally distraught) constituents to the polls much to the delight of our "well-situated" representatives.

How much longer will the leaders of our country persist in pitting neighbor against neighbor, co-worker against co-worker? The truth of the matter, in a supposedly "free" country, at least, when it comes to politics, we don't see any. Every election we're faced with the same parties, same people, and same useless (and empty) slogans. If America was really free, we'd have representatives (from many parties) who actually represent the plurality of the American people. Until then, is it really worth fighting increasingly nasty battles, which serve no one, but those who start them—the powers that be? America, wake up!
