you ignored everything else and focused specifically on the military portion of your equation why?The military’s problems aren’t related to politics. I can tell you that as an actual service member. And politically speaking it has only a slight slant depending on what branch of the military you’re talking about. The government has a very sizeable conservative minority (if not an outright majority), and the judicial branch is technically majority conservative. Furthermore, may I remind you that ultimately, laws don’t usually pass unless they have some level of approval from both parties. Your professional politics team, whichever one it is, probably voted in favor of our middle eastern wars, probably votes to give themselves pay raises, and probably at one point or another supported the infringement of people’s rights.I believe you should give my post some consideration. You named what was wrong I pointed out they were controlled by leftistsOf course, right, it’s the evil other political party ruining your country. Your own party is totally blameless. This is exactly the kind of mental rot I’m talking about.
Do you not wish to have an open discussion?
SHOW YOU WHAT THAT LEFTISTS ARE THE BIG PROBLEM IN THIS BITCH SESSION THREAD?I do- show us who is different. Show us what exactly the "right" has done to secure liberty against the dastardly lefty- show us actual policy difference, not rhetoric. BOTH sides support and subscribe to the same crap- voters desires are just fodder for divisiveness- there ain't a dimes worth of difference in policy.I believe you should give my post some consideration. You named what was wrong I pointed out they were controlled by leftists

It just seems like the poor get poorer no matter who’s in charge
You are looking at things the wrong way. Government isn't the solution, it's largely the problem. The Federal government was designed to be weak and poor with most power vested in the states. That way you have multiple, sometimes as many as fifty, solutions to any problem rather than one, one-size-fits-all solution dictated to all states. The less money and power the Federal Government has, the smaller the messes it creates are.
It's the system under which they operate, a system that gives most of the power to the Jihadis on the ends of the spectrum. The loudest voices get the attention, the politicians who best "play to the base" get the most wins.Am I the only one who feels this way? It seems like no matter which candidate or which party it is, things just get worse and worse for every day people. It feels like there’s no way out.

Which is why we need a Constitutional convention.Yeah, but the government isn’t gonna shrink itself. Last time someone tried weakening the federal government was in 1860. The federal government got 600,000 Americans killed to preserve its throne.Your first mistake is thinking politicians can make your life better. They can’t, and wouldn’t if they could. The only politician that can help is the one that will shrink this ever growing cancer that is federal government. Voting for people promising to give you something just makes it worse.
Have you ever thought that candidates get worse and worse is because that people are getting worse and worse?Am I the only one who feels this way? It seems like no matter which candidate or which party it is, things just get worse and worse for every day people. It feels like there’s no way out.

Reread my post. Also, just because they can join the military, doesn’t mean they do in large numbers. Again, I’m speaking from some experience. These people could previously join, they just weren’t allowed to be openly gay. If anything, it seems like you ignored most of my post.you ignored everything else and focused specifically on the military portion of your equation why?The military’s problems aren’t related to politics.

Allowing gays in the military would be a political issue and a leftist agenda position would it not?
Nevertheless, leftists control the education system the media and the government
THEREFORE LEFTISTS ARE YOUR PROBLEM FIX IT.

Exactly how the political class want you to feel. Vote Trump and piss them off.
All caps proves nothing, nor do they cite in answer to the question/statement I made. Try again- all caps is not anymore convincing-SHOW YOU WHAT THAT LEFTISTS ARE THE BIG PROBLEM IN THIS BITCH SESSION THREAD?
The Article V movement might be our best hope.Yeah, but the government isn’t gonna shrink itself. Last time someone tried weakening the federal government was in 1860.

Article V in the Constitution allows states to amend the Constitution in case the Federal government became too corrupt/powerful.
We are there.
Around 15 states have joined and we need at least a 2/3 majority of states to join. It has never been done before, but at no time in history has it been needed like it is now.
A good point, however much of that can be chalked up to technological advances. Some technologies we have today outright didn’t exist. People today still can’t really afford healthcare. Education wise? I’m really not sure, so I won’t speak on that.It just seems like the poor get poorer no matter who’s in charge
False assumption. The poor in the first world are much better off than the middle class of the third world.
Compared to the American poor of less than 100 years ago, American poor of today are living a much better lifestyle in terms of personal possessions, access to medical treatment, and education.

There is a reason that obesity, once considered to be a sign of affluence, is now endemic to our poorest communities.
