pixl, unless you have the ability to learn calculus in 9th grade while doing all the other AP stuff that is going on, it becomes extremely hard to get above a C
I am completely with rughugger
This is the poorest argument ever. The government has no money except ours, because the government is the representation of the people in an administrative body. Redistribution of wealth from richer people to less never hurt the economy.
yes, the constitution was meant to set up a government be representative by the people, but the only direct connection between the 2 is the the lower house of congress.
communistThe poor aren't receiving enough money. Republicans have been in power for too long.
it doesn't really matter which party has been in power, and i would assume it would be extremely difficult to make a tax that would only target the rich, seeing as most* richer people worked hard for their money, and would argue that the people who didn't give a stuff about their future till now deserve to be equally taxed
communist*i know quite a few people just use inheritance
You are quite the wacko. Stuff is getting worse because the democratic majority has a lot of infighting and conservative members, who should be republicans. Also, Obama wants all changes to be bipartisan, slowing down the process. He believes that unity is important for the future of the nation. You are really starting to sound like one of those conspiracy theorists, who say 9/11 was planned by the government and the moon landing was a hoax.
BAHUMBUG. the only way to decrease overall power of the government is to separate it from the inside and keep it away from a majority party. you say obama wants the nation to become more unitary, to me that's like saying to everyone that he wants a stronger central government, which means less power for people
Where is the government slyly taking away our control? The election system was in place since the creation of the nation, and our rights have only increased. Suffrage was extended to everyone, and slaves became full citizens. The only problem I have with government control is media censorship. As long as we can change the channel, we have the right to say forget and watch people forget on TV.
plenty of Supreme court cases i've read give a stuffLOAD of power to the government, and that power Can affect us directly, mainly through the states. For example South dakota vs Dole i think it is, south dakota was issued a grant with a crossover sanction saying that their drinking age be raised to 21 or they would pull 5% of the funds. The supreme court said it was constitutional and voila, no more drinking under 21. That's only one example that directly affects us, but i can find more. there's pleny of stuff that suggests outright that the government has become much more powerfull that it was intended
