BBV = TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION!

Why do corporations run elections, and then their lobbyists run the country, when the citizens pay over SIX TIMES the taxes of corporations?

In 2003, citizens paid SIX TIMES the federal income taxes of ALL corporations in the US! That is, the ones whose jobs haven't been sent to another country!

ANSWER:
TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION

OUR GOVERNMENT ISN'T ELECTED AND DOESN'T REPRESENT US!

There should be no corporations in the voting process.

The state should print plain paper ballots, which voters deposit into a transparent ballot box.

The voters should be allowed to watch the ballot box through the end of voting, and through the end of a handcount.

Even if the handcount takes all night, that is a fraction of the time it takes to build electronic voting machines, test voting machines, ship voting machines, train people on voting machines, etc.

2. thank you

I've been saying this for months.

"Taxation without representation" is something we have to repeat ad nauseum. It's really been the case since the industrial revolution, but it's never before been so extremely overt.

That coupled with the "gross misappropriation of funds" for this foolhardy and despicale endeavour in Iraq may actually get through to the Prozac induced seemingly slumbering poplulous.

But I think it may take a "Survivor Falluja" to really wake them up.
