Politics

Politics. I HATE politics. And politicians. Maybe I've read to much Star Wars, but I have this view that pretty much all politicians are corrupt, or don't actually care about those that they're representing. While this is probably not true, they're not doing much to disabuse me of this notion. With pizza being a vegetable, internet censorship, the new terrorist act, and the economy, it makes me wonder whether or not most politicians even have brains. I mean, come on. The world is collapsing around us, and they're arguing about whether or not pizza is a vegetable??? Who elected these people? Oh right.. that was us. Well, you guys. I haven't registered to vote yet. I might though, at this rate.

But I have this problem. I don't want to vote. All the options suck, and I just end up wanting to destroy things. It would help, however, to have someone explain to me all sides of the argument. I had that happen the other day, and suddenly the issue made a lot more sense. I didn't completely agree with him, of course, but I got where he was coming from. Unfortunately, everyone only presents their side. I suppose if I wanted to, I could go out and find more opinions, but I haven't gotten around to it.... Call me lazy if you like, but I have more immediate things to worry about, especially since I can't figure out a way to fix these problems. Besides restarting the world. And that's not gonna happen.

Mostly what I hear about is how the Republicans are hindering everything. Well, everything that might actually help. It just seems to me that every time something that might actually fix things comes along, the Republicans block it, or try to add things that would either make it irrelevant, or that are unrelated to the issue. And before anyone starts ranting at me for being anti Republican, this is just what I'm hearing. And that I don't entirely understand what's going on.

Occupy. Started out seeming like a good thing, but as an argument between my friends on Facebook showed me, it has lost direction. It needs that, a purpose, a focus, something. Anything.

And that's the end of my ranting for the moment. Check back later for more ranting, random info, and stuff. Bye!
