It\'s things like this that make me give up hope on humanity.
But it\'s music, positive people, and sunny days that bring back that hope.
I\'ll give up healthcare reform, the drug war, anything really, if we could just find a means to come together for total benefit... I consider myself well-read on political issues, and I can\'t make sense of what\'s going on with "healthcare reform".
The way I see the issue: complex beyond a simple distillation by either democraps or repulivegants. Gov\'t by the people, in the true interests of the people, OR no government at all. MONEY has corrupted the bulk majority of every side of government.
I actually believe Bush Jr. and Obama both tried to do what\'s best for the US. EXCEPT that G\'dub was a f\'ing moron and got played like a puppet by Rove/Cheny, and Obama is a smart man with some decent plans. I strongly disagree with BoBama on some issues (cannabis legalization), but I think he\'s honestly trying, given the complex set of cards he\'s being delt: the many "angles" of influence & responsibility within his job.
