America

[jeffjn]

America has one of the most corrupt governments the richest of the rich don't pay any kind of taxes due to the various loop holes that the government has in place but us middle to lower class citizens and residents pay taxes with out any cuts over 80% of America is in the middle class we pay the bills of this country while the rich feed off of us and get only richer. we live in a country which spends more money on its military then the education of its own people we live in a country where senators and representatives won't cut the budget of the military but are willing to cut spending for education, health care, and social services to make ends meet. crime runs rampant, a society that cares more about what freaking celebrities are doing frankly I'm tired of hearing about Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan. we live in a society where people scream at the president to show his birth certificate honestly I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have been able to run for president in the first place if he wasn't a citizen. Change can never occur unless we as a nation we as a people stand up and fight for it. This country was built on the fights for rights if we want change then we have to vote for the people who represent change protest petition and riot for the things we want their doing it in Europe they're doing it in the middle east they are getting results why don't we get our results the way i see it America is on the way to self destruction just like the great roman empire all empires fall and Americas turn is next. Can we stop it yes we can but are we willing to do it sadly i say a lot of us are not. The world is changing this is our chance to fight for our rights and privileges how can we change the world if we can't help our selves how can we fight wars when we have our own wars going on in our own backyards how could we spread peace if we don't even have stability in our own country just a thought.....feel free to criticize comment post debate whatever

Meh... I think I seen somewhere where a group of people formulated the best possible budget for the US and it was like 1/4 the current one, whilst keeping important things the same like education, military, and healthcare. It made richer people pay taxes and somehow it got rid of useless things or made it more efficient.

The American government is so corrupt, that it has even banned the use of paragraphs. Next they'll go after our beloved semicolon. Fight the power!

Interpolated with seemingly novel, thought-provoking perspectives, conspiracy theories can stimulate the rational mind and the imagination, intertwining the two until you've lost all insight. Ironically, the evidence you've cited situates you in the same camp as those religious “sheep”, so thoughtlessly following their confirmation bias: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias


Rest assured, were there a clandestine organization of powerful people, they would not be so stupid as to have their grand scheme seen through by teenagers on the internet.




Here's my advice – and it's not meant in a mean or mocking way.


Noone's going to listen to teenagers on the internet (or i-Teens, as I call them) spouting conspiracies. As far as the world's concerned, you're no one; in fact, the massive majority of people on these forums (if not everyone) are “nobodies”. You've/we've no impact on anything of importance.


Go get an education. Get some degrees behind your name. Along the way, you might pick up some wisdom. Those antideluvian insights, so reverently revealed by your e-bible? You'd encounter most of them, in their true forms, in any first year sociology or social psychology class. Hell, you'd've realize most of them yourself had you thought prior to encountering conspiracy theories. You put that same energy into your studies, and you'll do fine.


Besides, what've you got to lose? If you're still convinced the world's a conspiracy, at least the next time you're proselytizing, you'll have a degree or two. People might listen.
