When the government is corrupt and refuses to uphold the law, what are people supposed to do? Re-electing those same idiots into office year after year is not the answer.
Are people just not paying attention? Do they vote for the same party over and over because that is what their parents did?
The time has pasted for a third or forth party to come into play. But people refuse to vote third party.
I just do not understand why people vote the way they do.
People want term limits, but vote the same people into office. If you want term limits, vote them out of office.
I worry about what the government will be like in 20 or even 50 years.
So you think that - given limited resources for various federal departments - the Obama Administrations shouldn't have discretion to have these departments focus on the laws they think are most important? Everything should be slavishly on auto-pilot, regardless of how counter-productive?
So, for example, the Obama Justice Department should be required to aggressively enforce federal Marijuana laws in states that have passed medical marijuana laws or laws the decriminalize or legalize marijuana, even though almost everyone agrees enforcing such laws is almost a complete waste of resources? And the Obama USCIS should not be allowed to decide which immigration laws make the most sense to enforce?
Edit: It's quite amusing that in a world of shrinking budgets, "smaller government" is the goal of right-wingers, except when the reality of smaller government is that a smaller government is forced to pick and choose which laws it will aggressively enforce.
