American Democracy Book

What was I thinking? I was waiting for my boyfriend at Barnes and Noble and I picked up the book because the title caught my eye. For some reason I started to read. What I can't believe is that I went back to the bookstore the next day just to finish it.

Yes, there are factual truths in this book that can be proven. But what gets to me is that there are more half truths than anything else. If you are going to sight something as an example, give the entire thing. Don't cherry pick what will fit.

We as a country will never know what McCain could have done for our country. But I find it hilarious that Obama is the devil incarnate with some folks.

"Obamacare" is going to ruin our country because it will allow illegal immigrants go to the ER and not pay for services recieved. What I don't think most people realize is that I can go to the ER, with no insurance as a citizen, and not pay my bill. And that will be passed on to everyone else.

What would have happened to our economy if these "Bailouts" weren't given? Would we have a higher unemployment rate than there is? I belive most definitely. What would happen if GM were allowed to fail. Then certain parts of the country would be completely devestated.

I find it funny how people state that the Government should stay out of people's lives, but then want to pass certain laws to make sure things don't happen. Abortion. Gay Marriage. Having health care. A better educational syste. You can't have it both ways.
