So much good commentary on here. We are all basically of the same opinion, that our country is being destroyed by both political parties and their absolute greed.

BUT, where do we get a Joan of Arc or a modern day messiah to lead a revolution on Washington and turn the politicians on their ear? I certainly don't want to do it, I don't mind yelling and screaming about it, but when it comes to putting my money where my mouth is, I'm gone! So where do we find someone who is eloquent enough to lead a force for change? I am sure that person could be funded just by using the social media, but how do you get the news media, radio and TV to support such an effort. If you did find someone willing to put their all on the line the opposing media would dig into their past and fling up all manner of dirt to make their lives unbearable.

It seems to me, that we have in our apathy made our beds and now have to lie in them. Please someone prove me wrong ..................
