“America - the best government money can buy.

I love my country but hate my government.”

Here’s a syllogism for you, Pat:

(1) Americans believe in “economic freedom” - the freedom to do whatever one
wants with one’s wealth.

(2) Since there will always be a government, one thing you can be sure of in a
country that believes in “economic freedom”: the wealthiest people will simply buy
that government. They are merely exercising their “freedom of speech”, since
libertarian conservative judges have established the legal principle that money is
“speech.”

(3) Therefore, Pat, America’s ideological commitment to your libertarian ideology of
“economic freedom” guarantees that America, which you claim to love, will always
have the kind of government which you claim to hate: a bought government.

In France its clear to see, they come mostly from the same administratief highschool, they are sitting in the same class and even same desk, than they start their theater, going left or right, playing with the people, indoctrinate them, wel its dirty and very messy, but it is seemingly not to by breaking up soon.

Its an big famelie who is flooting on the surface of the society, filling their pockets, meanwhile preacing goodness, and prommesing heaven to the poor.

The corrupt nincompoops like Issa and his equally corrupt and narcissistic counterparts among the Democrats represent the majority of the American people who aspire to be nothing more than these very same obscenely wealthy leeches who are destroying their way of life. How bone dumb can you get?

The sad fact is that America is stuck in a patterned way of thinking (“individual enterprise”, unregulatled capitalism, “each man for himself”, whatever you call it) that stymies creative thinking and belief in the ability to change.
  Much could be done to mitigate the evils of such inequalities, but the national will is lacking because each person hopes to advance his/her own interests more or less free of concern for others. In this regard Congress, Wall Street and Main Street are scarcely at odds, though the incomes they are dealing with are far too widely different.
  We need to organize a more just, equal, humane and peaceable society as quickly as possible, because the present situation is falling apart.
  How this will occur is unclear, but that it must occur is as clear as crystal.

Its not hilarious at all, bud very sad, and on the other side you have to be very naîf to belief they are sitting their for the citizen, o no they are working with each and everyone, and for them selfs.
