yo politican or big business??
who do we hate the most? I say big business, simply because they buy the politcians. They buy elections and laws and so called social change. I dont blame politicians for taking money. Shit if they paid me to vote a certain way, dammit I would do it. The fact is most of us do not know what our elected offcials are voting for and why. We have no clue. so I say big business is the enemy and the politicians are just regular dudes trying to make a fast buck. I cant hate on them.

funkycomic,
I gotta hate on the politicians who refuse to reign in big business. Corporations are using legal processes to fuck us all over. The politicians haven't had the balls to change the laws. Blame them, don't blame capitalism for making money hand over fist. my 2cents.

cbreez0101,
Man politicians are meaningless, business runs this country. so why not criticize them for the screwed up
things that take place? they pay to let or not let it
happen so they can keep their money. 9/11 happened and now we have a push to take away some of our freedoms. if we are free of mind and person there is no telling what we can accomplish. a free mind may not smoke a cigarette or do drugs...may not kill his fellow man..fear is the weapon of the rich to control us.

funkycomic,
It's a screwed up process. Big business influences the politicians because politicians need their funds for campaign/personal reasons. Which came first - the chicken or the egg?
But I think many politicians get into politics for honest reasons - wanting to represent and do good for the people. But that fades quickly when it becomes an uphill battle. And then there are the assholes who are just in it for the power.
It should be total freedom of speech - speech doesn't harm anyone. It's actions that harm. As long as you aren't harming anyone else, i.e. stealing, killing, etc., then have at it! I think there should be a little bit of control over speech - by which I mean don't but porn on public television- porn should be on public television!
