Let me be very clear, the only path to unity is by destroying both the Republicrat and Demican party. Most of their relevent policies are the same, they are corrupt and once the curtains close all the theft is done.
I share some of this sentiment but it isn't the PARTY that is the issue. That is where all the "we need an alternative party" people fall down. The PEOPLE in power are the problems. Parties represent values and those parties can grow and change while holding onto simple core values. The republican party has done so for hundreds of years, and numerous equality and freedom parties have been incorporated into their philosophies.
The issue is that the people no longer represent those parties and the values the parties hold. As you point out, the Republicans give hand outs just like the liberals. Well, they aren't being Republicans, as you rightfully point out.
We don't need to destroy the parties. We need to REINFORCE them and kick people out who don't support the values they should.
Unfortunately, people have what the majority have voted for over the past 100 years. Everyone jumps up and agrees if you say, "Term Limits!" But then they turn around and vote for someone who has been in office for decades and never held a real job in his life. We have Clintons and Bushes in power for 36 of my 41 years.
The Capitol was unfortunately probably a warning shot that the politicians are ignoring 75M Americans and rather than take a look at themselves and how they have all contributed to this, they want to point fingers at one man and double down and create more aggression. If there is another protest on inauguration day, and they crack down the way they are planning, we are going to forget January 6th ever happened I fear. They cannot beat people who are becoming violent because of their insistence that they are always right by saying they are right more forcefully with unfounded prosecution, impeachment, etc.
Yes, the people who run this country need to be dismantled. And if we want to discuss punishments - with due process, in an American way - let's do it across the board. Pelosi, for one, will be in serious hot water if we go that route.
And voters are ultimately to blame for voting in the same people over and over again and expecting a different result. Nothing changes because the voting doesn't change.
Something to ponder.... "IF" the election really was stolen, and we no longer have divided government or free and fair elections.... what actually WOULD be the correct response???
Its not like you can 'vote them out in 2 years' just ask the people of Venezuela or Iran.
Einstein once said, "if I had an hour to sve a complex problem, I would spend the first 55 minutes looking for the right question to ask."
This is the tough call, at what point is violence the only reasonable option left. In Iraq, under Sadam, should the citizens have remained peaceful as he sent family members home in trash bags? What if those citizens rose up with violence before it got as far as it did? Maybe they would have liberated themselves. What about Stalin? Hitler?
Right now there is actually a large portion of people who believe this was stolen. Pelosi is to blame for this as much as Trump. These people were against mail-in ballots and Trump spoke up for them, and the politicians chose to ignore them (for their own gain). You cannot ignore someone when they have concerns of fairness and then expect them to trust you. But she doesn't work anything out, she just wants it her way or no way. You know, like a dictator.
I think the capitol riots went too far. I fear it is going to get worse because the opposition doesn't have any adults or people who will listen to other views. Where is the line where there was no other appropriate response? Not really sure.
I’m guessing the founding fathers would have started shooting already.
I am not really sure of this either. It isn't like they got to America and turned around and gave a big middle to the Atlantic Ocean. There were numerous attempts at sending the message...the Boston Tea Party, lots of protests/insurrection, etc. The revolution wasn't a single point in time of course...even though we tend to view it like that.
I had too!!!
