I'll repeat my response here to Jack Crow's comment he doesn't want this country, anyway.
You live here. You have this country, and it has you.
No, there is not nobility amongst the Democrats. They are venal and corrupt. But it's the kind of corrupt that simply wants your money and obedience. You can fight that.
But what's brewing amongst the Tea Party Republicans the corporatists are stoking is a wholly different beast.
There howling madness there, a xenophobia used as an outlet for deep self-loathing and inadequacy. Instead of being a neo-Rome building a neo-empire, we could become the race of locusts some already see us as, stripping the earth bare and devouring all in our way. We both know that exists among us already.
You stand for it or against it. Voting Democrat is simply a tool to fight it for the moment. There are better, many of which I will not discuss here or anywhere it can be heard by the machine.

I mean the concept "country" or "nation." I don't care about that arbitrary boundary. It's a notion which always benefits those who rule it - not those who are ruled by it.
The idea that the "banksters" have won and stolen this alleged national construct from us is silly, because it's wrong.
It's always been their country. So, I don't want it. Whether or not I live in the same geographical region where their national construct happens to overlap has nothing to do with it - except that I can reject it while in close proximity to it.
Respect,
Jack

Hmm ... does one of them maybe have to do with algae? I don't have a job lined up post-graduation, yet.
