Nothing wrong with a government that provides services to the people for the taxes it takes in. It isn't greedy to want something from your government. That's the rich brainwashing you. Meanwhile, they want everything and you go along.
Yes, voting is the solution. We can only take back the country by voting or revolution. What is your solution? You want to revolt before even trying the vote?
Yes it does matter if 70% of the people vote instead of 39%. If you say it doesn't either you are a fool or liar.
It certainly is greed when you vote for shitheads that uses the force of government to steal money from other people to benefit you. That is the definition of greed. Tony Soprano would be proud of that scam.
If 70% of the people elect the same kind of people that get elected now and the country continues to have enormous debt, high taxation, limited economic growth, a welfare state, a lost of freedom, interventionism and corrupt government then they haven't accomplished any more that 39% that votes right now.
The American people are not smart enough or moral enough to have a working Republic.
When the citizen asked Ben Franklin "What kind of government have you given us?" and his reply was "A Republic if you can keep it" then he was commenting about the American people may not being smart or moral enough to have good government. He was right to have that concern as we are seeing now.
That's what governments do idiot! Social engineering. Do you think the American Middle class is because of unregulated free market capitalism? If you do you are wrong. It is because of a government that worked for We The People.
You are clearly brainwashed when you use words like steal from you. If the government taxes you, it is not theft. Oh, and the entire 8 years when Bush and the GOP were talking about lower taxes they weren't talking about for broke asses like you and me. They were talking about for their rich friends. In fact we see the GOP way is to shift more of the tax burden onto you. In other words the GOP are actually for raising your taxes to lower their rich friends taxes.
Liberals a long time ago set up a progressive tax scheme and the rich have been chipping away at it ever since. This is a fact. In fact, Bush's policies STOLE our 401K money and gave it to the rich. His wars were a gift to the defense contractors. He doubled the debt by giving his rich friends tax breaks while starting two wars and borrowing from China to pay for them. Chaney/Rumsfeld said Iraq oil would pay for the war. They lied. More than once. And here you remain brainwashed and stupid. OMG.
2 more things. 1. Only the rich voting GOP and middle class voting Democrat are smart. All the poor and middle class voting GOP are stupid and all the people not voting at all are stupid. But I'm ok with the stupid people voting GOP. As long as they vote.
So don't worry about them not being smart enough to vote. That doesn't stop you does it? And when they start voting, it changes EVERYTHING. Then both the Democrats and Republicans start caring what we think/say/vote. Right now they don't give a **** because they know you are stupid enough to not vote. They have won. Until you vote, they win.
