As a totally non-partisan, open-minded, and intelligent individual, this back and forth bickering in our country really irritates me. With both, Democrats, and Republicans, it seems that everything everyone who is not on "my team" supports, is automatically stupid or doing something bad. I think people need to stop thinking like elementary schoolers jumping on a bandwagon and overlooking common sense, and join forces to do what is best for us all. We're never going to get anywhere as earthlings (yes, everyone is affected by these actions, not just folks in one country) unless we work together and stop the childish pursuit of conquering "the other team". It's pointless...
The problem is not Democratic or Republican its government. What we need is less intervention and more personal responsibility. The government should protect us and our rights as a society. Not much more...If personal responsibility was to rule more people would act responsible to survive. When will we realize you can't remove consequences and expect people to learn for themselves? If I want more out of life I work harder. If you want to earn more money as an adult study hard and apply yourselves as a youth. If you decide to be a drug addict then you suffer. If you decide to be a criminal you earn your right to be taken out of the free society. If you make a ton of money and decide to give it to your children then you have that right because you earned that right or someone down the line in your family make some good decisions. We need to teach personal responsibility and reward personal responsibility. This whole idea of taking from hard working law abiding individuals and transferring it to irresponsible lazy people who spend their welfare checks on drugs, beer and lottery tickets is ridiculous.
