This speaks TRUTH to me. Took almost 80 years for the logic to sink in. Our constitution needs to be replaced in total (Electoral College...Really?) ( 3 equal branches of government results in my being ripped off by the pharmaceutical, oil, the government itself, monopolies, Viet Nam followed by other wars) etc.

>>>I have always thought that- and have said so :-) It was not always well received. But our elitist , slave owning forefathers who were too cheap to pay to remain in the British Empire, cut us off from civilized European and English society and made us the shithole we are today. Taxation withour representation? What bullshit. If that were true, women shouldn't have to pay taxes. Black folks shouldn't have to pay taxes. ANYONE who has not been properly represented (like the poor) should not have to be taxes.

This country was built on sanctimonious bullshit- and now the bullshit overwhelms us.
