– From “Front and Center”, by Bud Burrell –
Our political process has degenerated into a hardened two party system, the objective of which can only be the control of the electorate. The leaders of this system have become the worst kind of elitists, concerned only with furthering their own power, as opposed to protecting this nation from its enemies, both foreign and domestic. The latest of the many affronts to the US citizens was the decision by our legislative bodies to exempt them from being subject to the new “Health Care Reform Act” which oversteps their Constitutional authority according to my best analytical sources.
The most disgusting element of the proposed “Health Care Reform Act” is that our legislators have chosen to exclude themselves from living under the same system they would unilaterally impose on the American People. This sort of effrontery has brought down other governments in the past, and before this is over, it may well have the same effect here.
The two party system preached by our politicians is designed to wrap broad controls over the electorate irrespective if their political views. In most cases, each party is controlled by fringe elements whose principal concern is the continued propagation of their own power, which can only occur when the largest unit of American voters shifts support between the parties at elections.
