What do you think about this piece of an article about the goverment?
I found this today and I want to know what you think of it.
Written by a teen
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"They call us uneducated but then won't take the time to tell us what is really the problem. When we strike upon the truth they cover it up by digging up our past mistakes and make us as uncreditable as any one of them.
"They use people as pawns, they never apologize unless forced to. They use the media to desensitized us. How many people are so disgusted with the news that they just turn it? So tired of hearing the same malarkey day after day.
"They say they want to help the people of America and then throw us to the dogs.
"They don't support our troops who are keeping us safe. I'm not saying I like the war but I do believe it necessary to keep our freedom.
"And if it come to a civil war I must say that I will fight to keep it. Because if our goverment keeps leading us down the road we are on now I believe that the people of America won't stand for it."

Does anyone else agree with the writer?
Here is the entire article. I wish I knew the author. Sorry its abit out of order.
"How did we end up electing the town fools as our leaders?
At least it sure seems as if thats what we've done. Empty promises and hipocritcal grins, liars and backstabbers and we chose these people for our goverment.
"We elect a man who appologizes for us to the enemy. As if we are the ones in error.
"People have called me too young to see, others call me a redneck, and others unable to see, racist and much more horrible things simply because I believe that who we have as national leaders are not doing their jobs.
"They all tell us to conserve our energy and be kind to our earth and then they go fly jets to places they could easily drive to. Use a hybrid car they've tried to force on us and they'll use a limo just to look stylish.
"Many own cars that they will never drive and eat expensive imported food instead of supporting farmers here in America. "
The rest of it you read above.

Yes I agree. In our present society it is truly more important for our government to be completely honest with its people. If the Government refuses to fully disclose to its people, then the people have a right to replace that government with a more honest form. Politicians routinely keep the voters in the dark to serve their own agendas, our only defense is the election process. Americans are intelligent enough to discern lies from truth so long as we pay atttention. If you won 50 million dollars would you hire a person to take care of your money, and not expect an accounting of their actions? I think not
