The democrats have been shoveling money into the big cities and supplying people with their own hole to jump into (welfare). How much improvement have we seen with this 'help'? Why doesn't welfare teach a skill or require a drug test? You are required to pass a drug test for most jobs. There is no help going on, just the intent of keeping people poor so they do not care about taxes and would enjoy more government control. Perpetuating poorness is not helping. The democrats are attempting to push cap and trade through which would devastate our economy with minimal impact environmentally. The people will have to pay more for no reason. The democrats push these PI ideals that got 13 soldiers killed in Fort Hood. The democrats attempt to regulate business (whom we've stupidly bailed out) with the long history of regulations failing; such as the regulation of AIG salaries. Regards, Z Regina,

Not to mention PUBLIC FINANCE REFORM, pushing for reform on how our elections are conducted, meaning keeping tabs on who our "representatives" represent. Thom Hartmann suggests our congress people wear NASCAR type logos sewn into their suits to show who they REALLY represent. The German High Court recently banned electronic voting machines, and mandated hand counts of the votes. How quaint, how overdue here. http://www.inteldaily.com/news/173/ARTICLE/12343/2009-10-23.html Most precincts in the US are small enough to be counted by hand easily and quickly. Yes, I know about Afghanistan and "ballot stuffing", but cheating via ballot stuffing would be harder in the U.S., and much less efficient than electronic voting machines, or paper ballots fed into machines, to hack into on a large scale. Regina,

The people have the Democrat party, but it is riddled with corruption. Hmmm. Looks like a good place for a revolution.
