3. No we don't... we need to be our own heroes
It's pretty obvious that our elected "leaders" aren't listening to us.. at all. It's time for us - We the People- to take our Country back. It's time to take it out of the hands of the corporatists and the rich/elite and return it to 99% majority... the Common Man. It's time to run these fuckers out on a rail.


Before anyone starts worrying/whining about "plotting to over-throw the government", save your breath. They can't make the charges stick. Period. Oh sure, they've *tried*... but it can't stick. One reason:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Game - Set - Match

It's time to take control of our own destinations, it's time to be your own hero... the ruling elite don't give a damn about us....
