lettruthspeak User ID: 83191019 United States 05/11/2022 08:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Abolish political parties. Quoting: BigSister Party politics is the problem. If there were no political parties there would be no politicians. Political parties (Democrat, Republican, etc.) operate like organized crime cartels, party bosses, gangs and mobs. Every candidate should run for office on the content of their individual character. It could be made less costly for individuals if they were able to advertise their campaigns at no cost. TV and Radio networks should be mandated to air campaign ads free of cost. Even term limits would no longer be necessary. Eligible voters should be free to vote for anyone they want in leadership for as long as the want. Voter "eligibility" is also key... People should be required to be land owners and possibly have other requirements to earn eligibility to vote. Politicians are able to buy the votes from the dregs of society with "free" stuff. People should have some skin in the game before they can vote for leadership in the game. Not landowners. You must be a taxpayer would be my choice for voting rights, either individually or within a family. |

Otherwise, all they’ll do is rotate around their favorite stars to different offices. The power lies in the WHOLE MACHINE, and it must be dismantled. |

Giving everybody the right to vote was the beginning of the end. Here is a novel idea : ON EVERY BALLOT, YOU HAVE A 10 QUESTION CIVICS QUIZ. Your vote counts as much as your score on the quiz. Get 10% and thats what your vote counts for. This would be considered RACISS though. |

My friend you need to rethink what was spoken. I have thought about it long and hard - we have been peaceful and look where we are now. Pretty much at game over with a gun held to our heads. Except the gun is a needle and the shot is the content. I will not be praying and begging Jesus for help when they finally come to take me away - I will be spilling blood. I'm sorry you don't like this harsh analysis but ultimately no matter how peaceful we are this WILL come down to violence. |
