First of all, Communism on paper is an awesome idea, but placing all the power in the hands of one HUMAN, in practice will end up bad every single time. It is our inherent human nature to want to use and abuse power. Is anyone entirely sure that if Gandhi had complete and total control over the people of India, that it wouldn't go to his head just a little?
As for Obama, He wasn't the best choice, he was really the only choice. (Yeah, like I would vote for an old man with one foot in the grave, and with a running mate with the IQ of a shelled peanut) The color of his skin aside (like it makes a difference anyway, we all bleed red), Obama still has a HELL of a mess to clean up, and i'm sure 4 years isn't going to be enough to even make a dent. Lets not pretend that Obama was our sole president that put us in debt.
wut?
Obama is not an idiot. Because of the way this country works, and because idiots like the ones on the first post continue to live, he CAN'T DO ANYTHING. In baseball terms, he's "in a pickle." A political pickle. The worst pickle to be in.
QUOTEThere's no such thing as working honestly here anymore. You can get fired for ANYTHING. You can bribe people with ANYTHING. People will sell other people out, drop them to the bottom of the hell hole, just for a few more pennies in their pocket.
There's no such thing as living reasonably anymore either, at least not for most people. And before you say it's because they don't work hard enough, my grandparents both worked for 50+ years. One at a car factory, that had NO AIR. And one as a speedy semi-truck-driver. Know what happened? Both their works screwed them over. Royally. Now where are they? Then unemployment screws them over. Then social security and insurance screwed them over. You can't go 10 steps without getting screwed by someone.
