[QUOTE="mast240, post: 7704200, member: 631695"] Well, where do you want to start? There is SOOO much, that it could take days to explain everything that goes on... but i'll put it as simple as i can. Corporations run the govt... plain and simple... politicians are bought and paid for by certain large corporations. You may not see how this affects you, but it really does every single day. Prisons for profit is a huge issue that no one really talks about. most dont realize that it is as big of an issue as it is... but when a govt starts to imprison it's own people for profit, something has to change. Corruption is rampent in our govt. there are SO many BS jobs within the federal workforce, that have no reason to even exist (the vast majority being political appointees) ... There really is so much waste and corruption, it can be overwhelming sometimes. If you're looking for the difference in a republican and dem, conservative and liberal.... it's a really grey area. Not what their principle stances are supposed to be... but what directions the parties have gone in are.... If you look at the difference between what a true conservative's stances are, and where the republican party is today... its a far stretch between the 2 (same on the other side) ... but none of that really matters, because the majority of politicians out there are just puppets... so party really makes no difference. The biggest problems we have tho, are career politicians, privately funded elections, and lobbyists. thats just a few examples, for the short and sweet [/QUOTE]
