Damn Americans

You know what's crazy? How easy it is for people to spend money. I mean, it"s ridiculous! people look at the object and think, "eh, just this one time" or "I'll buy it quick or else I'll regret it." The economy is in the crapper right now! What's the big deal?! Pople are almost nonhesitant to spend money. Money should be saved so that during the rise of the economy, they will be better off when they market is in better shape. All of the bailouts that banks and huge corporations receive is also ridiculous. The market is broken and CEO's and all the other rich shareholders have an artificial hold in both houses of Congress. They are controlling the money of the taxpayers and to control the money of the taxpayers means that your business will always succeed or at least always be alive and running.

You know what else is crazy? How dumb Americans are. I've seen a few pictures of some kind of protest and one of the signs said something along the lines of, "I'm informed because I only watch fox news" and I thought it was absolutely stupid! Being informed means being able to look at information from all kinds of sources and forming an knowledgeable opinion of a subject, knowing about it from all sides and views. To be able to think critically on the subject is a very important part of being informed. Watching only one news station means you're closing yourself off to all other sources of information. This means that you're letting propaganda win.

It's hard to believe how little attention americans give to politics and what is happening all around them.. The apathy among young voters, the loud obnoxiousness of the republican party, the evergrowing debt, endless wars, the ridiculous amount of attention spent on abortion and gay marriage laws and much more are atrocious! The bills that matter such as the tax breaks for the people, funding towards education, closing loopholes in our taxing system for corporations, and auditing the federal reserve are ignored and left behind as if they are not important.
