Both extremes are -blam!-ing stupid, honestly. We need more moderates in our society.

This is so true.

Yes. But its not in the interests of the Top 0.1% for that to happen. The more that they can keep the rest of us divided amongst ourselves along TRIBAL lines, and fighting over SCRAPS.....the more they can go about robbing the country blind of its resources without interference. Divide and Rule. One of the oldest tactics in the book.

If that's the case, those who do want a moderate society should create a new nation. It would be USA 2.0, but with blackjack and hookers! ...Ok maybe it won't have that last part, but creating a politically moderate nation from scratch isn't completely unfeasible. All we need to do is create artificial land, since most of the planet's land has been claimed by man.

They don't have to start a new nation. They just have to take back the power they hve in this one. Corporations don't own us. They've just stepped into the power-vacuum created by our apathy and cynicism. That's the problem I have with so many progressives. They spend all their energy PROTESTING the system, rather than PARTICIPATING IN IT...and forcing it to answer to them. Which Is why I loved it when Pres. Obama would call out that mentality among Progressives with is signature line..... [i]"Don't boo.....VOTE!!"[/i]
