Sounds like states are getting fed up!

I for one am glad to hear this. While this may be driven by local officials because of political pressures, at least its a step in a direction. Im so tired of the stupid ass games played in DC.

I mean the min wage increased tied to the estate tax crap was just unbelievable.

The current administration is so horribly fucked up.  I don't even know where to start.

One thing I'd love to get rid of is the electoral votes.  It's outdated and there's no reason for it to exist anymore.  I have a problem when someone who gets the majority of votes doesn't win.

Republicans are Crazy, Democrats cant give me someone good to vote for. WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

I dont like having to vote for the best of the worst! thats not fun politics!

[ToxicAdam]

You want the state and local government to have more control ... yet you want Democrats in national office?

Does not compute.



Our tax system is screwed up. We should be paying the most to local, then state, then national. But it's the opposite.

I wouldnt mind if Washington State just split off on its own. Its a rare day when I feel I can relate to the general consensus of the other states in the union.

ToxicAdam, I don't see the Republicans pushing for a reduced Federal government these days.

Do you think it has much luck?

I know.     We need a a third party.

[MrAngryFace]

We could call them the GOOD PARTY

[Diablos]

I'd be all for a moderate party or something like that.

[MrAngryFace]

well moderate in politics apparently means wishy washy never gets crap done. I think what we need is some new brand of kickin ass politics.

[Solo]

I support the militant salvation army party.

[MrAngryFace]

Yeah that sounds sane. wait no!

Fuck, these days, I *would* take free-market capitalism if "godless" was permanently affixed to it.

Then I'd fear that we get some uber-conservative party long before we get an extremely liberal one.

I think what we are doing right now is how the Whig party got started. Too bad about the shitty name.
