The Two-Party System – A Catastrophic Failure
Written on September 2, 2010 at 12:04 am, by superdancin

For a number of years now, respected pundits have lauded the American two-party political system as an excellent balance between the dictatorship of a one-party system and the instability of a multiparty system. Yet the two-party system has caused our country great harm. The Republican and Democratic parties have divided the American people over fundamental moral values, they have failed to rectify longstanding national problems, and their existence chiefly benefits special interest groups, politicians, and mega-corporate executives. Most unfortunately of all, however, the two-party setup does not represent the people of the United States.
Many people believe that political parties are essential in a democracy such as the United States. These individuals claim that since a democracy encourages dissent and disagreement, it is only natural that such differences of opinion will find expression in organized factions. But this strain of thought clashes with the judgment of our nation’s founders. In his Observations on History, Benjamin Franklin wrote that parties engender confusion. Alexander Hamilton, James Madison and John Jay warned against the evils to the general public that a “spirit of faction” would cause. And George Washington refused allegiance to any political party during his eight-year service as first president of the United States.
Despite these early statements against partisanship, opposing factions emerged at the end of the 1700s representing two different opinions about the role of the federal government. The Federalists urged a strong central administration that would dominate the states and ensure national unity, while the Republicans believed that the individual states should have more power. In fact, the form of government officially established by the Constitution was a federal republic, so these parties were emphasizing the importance of either national or state power. Alexander Hamilton found himself in the Federalist camp, whereas Thomas Jefferson sided with the Republicans–although neither prominent national founder held the rigidly partisan or doctrinaire outlook typical of many American politicians today. Moreover, the chief disagreement of these early parties was over the distribution of power within the United States government; their members agreed on most moral, economic, social, and foreign policy issues such as slavery, domestic trade, the family, and isolationism.
During the 1800s, the parties evolved and grew further apart, especially over the issue of slavery. Federalists changed their name to Republicans and opposed slavery and the secession of the South, while the heretofore Republicans became Democratic-Republicans and declared support for slavery and secession. At this stage, one party was championing a grave injustice which most Americans instinctively understood was evil. The Democratic-Republicans received backing primarily from wealthy Southern landowners, who insisted on keeping slaves for cheap labor.
After Republican president Abraham Lincoln waged the Civil War, declared emancipation, and reunited the South, the Democratic Party remained the faction of Southern landlords’ continued rebellion against the North and repression of Black political rights. However, in the late 1800s and early 1900s, the Democrats also gained support from blue-collar workers in Northern cities as the Industrial Revolution created a new underclass. Meanwhile, Republicans attracted backing from the new class of wealthy Northern capitalists and from supporters of Black civil rights nationwide.
Around the turn of the twentieth century, the importance of economic and foreign policy issues increased. The Republican Party came to stand for Northern farmers, retention of the gold standard, fiscally disciplined government, and isolationism, while the Democratic Party represented Southern landowners and Northern laborers, a flexible money supply, growth of the federal government, and foreign engagement. During the Cold War, the two parties achieved a significant level of bipartisanship, agreeing on the necessity of confronting Communism and promoting freedom abroad. Another major change occurred in the 1960s, when Democratic president Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 into law. From then onward the Democratic Party took up the “liberal” causes of civil rights and urban workers, leading the “conservative” faction of farmers, limited government and big business–the Republican Party–to dominate the South.
Another element was added to the American political landscape with the social upheavals of the 1960s and the Supreme Court’s decision of Roe v. Wade which legalized abortion in 1973. When a number of Democrats who had favored the abandonment of traditional social and moral guidelines came to realize the bitter failure of those upheavals, they converted into social “conservatives” and found a new home in the Republican Party. President Ronald Reagan emerged as the standard-bearer of these new Republicans, who established their party on the firm foundation of God’s Law and strove to restore our nation’s identity as a Christian country.
The end of the Cold War signaled the arrival of two more simultaneous factional changes. One was President Bill Clinton and his group of “New Democrats”, who championed unrestricted globalization and free market economics alongside social spending. The other change had been planted during the Reagan administration, hibernated under the Clinton administration, and blossomed fully after the events of September 11, 2001: the ascendancy of neoconservatives within the Republican Party. Led by President Bush, these individuals likewise championed unrestricted globalization and free market economics, but they also demanded an aggressive military response to “Islamic” terrorism with vast increases in military spending and in the size of the federal government, as well as cuts in social spending and foreign economic aid.
We can learn important lessons from this condensed review of American partisan history. One of the reasons for the constant switching back and forth between parties appears to be that the country has different needs at different times. The American people chose Republican candidate Abraham Lincoln because of his firm stand against slavery during a critical time in the nation’s history. They selected Democratic runner Franklin D. Roosevelt and his increased government spending to mitigate the effects of the Great Depression. In 1980, they chose Republican candidate Ronald Reagan in reaction to economic stagnation and moral decline. And in 1992, American voters picked the Democratic contender Bill Clinton as a result of economic recession.
But though our country has different needs at different times, political parties are not the proper instrument to satisfy these needs. According to George Washington, the constant alternation of two parties in the federal government would be a “frightful despotism”. The main reason for this alternation, especially in the past few decades, is that neither party is adequately solving the key problems America faces.
Two factors explain this failure. First, each party represents some of the policies America needs. For example, the Republican Party traditionally stands for the right to life of each human person from conception to natural death; a free marketplace; limited government; a strong (but not bloated) national defense; secure borders; fiscal responsibility; and strict interpretation of the Constitution. The Democratic Party traditionally stands for the right of the poor to government assistance; the rights of ethnic and religious minorities to an equal place in our society; regulation of big business and trade; protection of the environment; multilateral nuclear disarmament; and increased foreign economic aid to impoverished countries. However, the US really needs both sets of policies. We need pro-life laws and multilateral nuclear disarmament, tax cuts and deficit reduction, a free market and social security nets, not one or the other.
The second factor explaining the failure of the two-party system is corruption. When a new president is elected, people anticipate that he will get things done. When he fails to meet even reasonable expectations and his administration becomes plagued by scandal (as has happened all too often in recent decades), people turn with hope to the other party, which generally does not improve matters much. This is because most members of both parties have been corrupted by special interests. Our last three presidents have been mega-corporate moguls whose ownership of major industries presented flagrant conflicts of interest. In addition, wealthy and vocal lobby groups have bullied our senators, representatives and president into enacting policies that benefit a few large companies at the expense of the average American citizen.
For example, President Bill Clinton was elected in 1992 on a platform that featured tax cuts, economic growth for everyone, and an ambitious social welfare program. Although the economy did grow, Clinton broke other promises by instituting the largest tax raise in American history, keeping social spending to a minimum, and permitting corporations such as Wal-Mart, Microsoft, and McDonalds to reap the lion’s share of gains. Then in 2000 President George W. Bush was elected on a platform that featured the right to life, tax cuts, free-market economics, secure borders, and fiscal discipline. Although Bush has generally held to his pro-life pledge and did sign into law some token tax cuts, in September of 2006 he declared support for the Plan B contraceptive pills for minors. Furthermore, President Bush has allowed big businesses such as Wal-Mart, Microsoft, McDonalds, Halliburton, Boeing, Verizon Wireless, and News Corporation to choke the “free” market; has pandered to illegal aliens; and ran up the largest federal budget deficits and national debt in American history. Both presidents ended up serving the interests of mega-corporations first and foremost.
The two-party political system does not accurately represent opposing viewpoints of the role of the federal government as it did in the young United States. Though it was a bad idea to begin with, since the latter part of the last century the system has become decrepit with corruption and has fallen sadly out of touch with the average American. Most of the Republican and Democratic candidates allege certain principles and make attractive promises during their campaigns, but upon entering office compromise overtakes principle like a weed and promises are thrown to the wind. Unfortunately, the current corrupt political climate is hostile to honest, traditionally-minded candidates with unwavering principles from Middle America such as “Average Joe” Schriner, Mike Huckabee and Sam Brownback. In general, only those individuals who habitually cater to–or are susceptible to manipulation by–hawkish pressure groups have a chance at federal public office.
Despite the manifest failure of the modern Republican and Democratic parties to deliver, however, well-defined groups of American voters across the map of the United States continue to choose congressional and presidential candidates along party lines because no viable alternatives are in sight. These dedicated factional adherents are stuck in the rut of the two-party system. Economics has long vied with fundamental moral convictions as a major factor determining political affiliation. In the US today, richer individuals (who generally dominate rural areas) tend to vote Republican, while poorer individuals (who generally dominate the cities) tend to vote Democratic. These choices are based largely on the economic and moral policies that the parties stand for and on the hope that new candidates will do a better job than their predecessors. It is true that some Republicans and Democrats in Congress keep their campaign promises and actually work hard to deliver significant pro-life victories or greater socioeconomic equality, and it is those few exceptions that keep hope alive.
On the other hand, contented middle-class individuals (who generally dominate suburbs and small towns and comprise a significant minority of the American people) tend to hold a more independent, traditionally-minded outlook and are more likely to spread their votes around based on fundamental moral convictions as well as their common-sense perception of local and national needs. These are the “swing voters” to which enterprising candidates of both parties direct so much of their campaigning energy.
The degree of distinction between the two parties is a matter of controversy. To figure this out, it is helpful to distinguish between theory and practice. In theory, the Republican and Democratic factions are ideological opposites, with Republicans focusing on traditional values and responsibility while Democrats are grounded in progressive values and opportunity. But in practice, thanks to the endemic corruption of the system, there is little difference between parties. Republicans turn out to be not really Republican, and Democrats turn out to be not really Democrats: both sets of politicians operate together in a hazy and confused middle ground defined by special interest groups. This has been clearly demonstrated on a number of occasions, such as the overwhelming Congressional approval for war in Iraq in 2002, the Republicans’ passage of a bill that would have provided federal funds for embryonic stem-cell research involving abortions in 2006, and the refusal of Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to consider impeaching President Bush. All of these decisions were driven by mega-corporations, which stood to profit immensely from them. Even though President Bush vetoed the embryonic stem-cell act, soon afterward he accepted limited access to contraceptive pills for minors in order to mollify the big business executives.
Some might point to these occasions of crossing party lines as examples of bipartisanship. However, selling one’s fundamental principles to money-hungry American firms does not make for true bipartisanship. Real bipartisanship involves consistent agreement on fundamental, non-negotiable moral values such as the right to life and frequent compromise on the wide range of negotiable issues such as national security, economic policy, environmental protection, domestic poverty relief, and foreign aid. But instead of the way things should be, the pressure of the unrestricted free-market ideology has inverted values. Republicans and Democrats treat the negotiable issues as the most crucial of all and generally are absolutely unbending on them, whereas the fundamental moral values elicit disgraceful compromises and persistent disagreement. After all, big business tycoons do not like to have their enormous profits curtailed by the Ten Commandments, and they demand a totally unregulated market in order to reap those profits.
The two-party setup in the United States has severely divided our nation. Having names and labels for different political persuasions can be helpful, but they have too often led to pigeonholing and name-calling which hampers a free exchange of ideas. “Republican” and “Democrat”, “conservative” and “liberal”, “right” and “left” have degenerated into terms used to ostracize and vilify the opposition and to stifle discussion of topics deemed politically incorrect. A private citizen or political candidate who opposes the war in Iraq should not be dubbed a “radical leftist” any more than a private citizen or political candidate who advocates illegalizing abortion should be denounced as a “right-winger”.
Moreover, the true meanings of the terms “conservative” and “liberal” have been obscured. In modern parlance, a “conservative” is someone who defends fundamental moral values and wishes to preserve traditional national ideals, and a “liberal” is someone who disputes fundamental moral values and wishes to radically change our country around. But these meanings are inadequate. The words originally referred to political approaches, not to a person’s moral values or lack thereof. “Conservative” basically means someone who applauds the status quo, while “liberal” means someone who wishes to effect change. Neither conservatism not liberalism is good or evil per se; it depends on what specific policy you wish to maintain or to alter. Continuing a bad policy such as torture of terrorist suspects is just as detrimental to our national well-being as changing a good policy such as the ban on federal funding of embryonic stem-cell research involving abortion would be. Beneficial policies need to be maintained and harmful policies need to be changed. Thus in the original sense of the words, few if any human beings could be described as completely conservative or completely liberal.
Political factions tend to be driven by ideologies that, in their members’ pursuit of particular goals, obscure rather than clarify the truth. Indeed, truth itself has been politicized. Inconvenient truths (such as the inability of embryonic stem-cells to cure diseases) are derided as falsehood, while falsehoods that make a few people rich (such as the impossibility of conducting a dialogue with terrorists) are glorified as absolute truth. Nowhere are these destructive elements of partisan politics more evident than in the meteoric rise of the neoconservative ideology following the terrorist attacks of September 11. This intolerant, extremist, and totalitarian belief system seems to have become a religion for many people, yet it is a deception that worships the false gods of national security and an unfettered free market. It was cunningly crafted by a handful of rich American tycoons to justify an aggressive foreign policy that enables them to engage in the age-old practice of war profiteering, to expand their globalized business operations across the world, and to exploit more and more human beings without hindrance. In contravention of history, it insists that terrorism is an act of war rather than a criminal tactic employed to draw a government’s attention to real grievances, and that only all-out armed force can “defeat” terrorism. Its view of the terrorist threat is based on mistaken assumptions, numerous fallacies, and blanket denials of many important facts that contradict their view.
Although it masquerades as patriotic, the neoconservative ideology and its loyal adherents have done tremendous harm to the American political landscape. Neoconservatives have viciously attacked their opponents, twisted moral values, and used false guilt to silence opposition. They are utilizing the ancient strategy of divide and conquer to destroy American public debate and ultimately to dominate the world. Their ability to find common ground with Americans of other opinions on negotiable issues is nil. In the pursuit of greed and power, they are willing to exacerbate partisan divisions among the American people and make them forget their nonpartisan heritage.
According to our nation’s founders, it would be better to have no political parties at all. Individuals should form their opinion on each individual negotiable matter through a careful review of all the relevant facts and without pressure from a corporate-controlled media, comfortable politicians, wealthy pundits, celebrities, or mega-corporate leaders. If that were to happen, if Americans were to discard ideologies and agree on the fundamental moral values, they would find much common ground on the negotiable issues. Instead of constant bickering and division, we would begin to experience true reconciliation and unity.
With each Congressional partisan victory and each new presidential administration, the newly elected have vowed to make a fresh start precisely because the previous faction led America to a dead end. The Democratic Party is now taking advantage of the myriad failures of the Bush administration and of Congressional Republicans to shore up their image as the faction that America desperately needs, the party that will rescue Americans from the clutches of right-wing insanity and deliver than a brighter future in 2009. For Americans weary of Republican mistakes and desirous of substantial changes in many political areas, the carrot held out by Democratic candidates looks tempting. It would be easy to accept this carrot and elect Democrats to Congress and the presidency alike. But if Americans choose this easy route next year, they will find that it leads to a dead end. A Democratic triumph next year will simply turn out to be a repetition of recent political history. How long will Americans dance to the tune of this dishonest and corrupt two-party scheme? Choosing the easy route will not get us anywhere. Instead, we should make known loudly and clearly our intense desire for candidates whose integrity is unsullied by a web of political connections and whose records are unsullied by corruption (such as “Average Joe” Schriner, Mick Huckabee or Sam Brownback for president), and then write the name of one of those candidates on the ballot in state primary elections and again in the November 2008 election. Otherwise, Americans eight years from now will again be whining about the dishonesty, corruption and ineffectiveness of Washington, D.C.
The “frightful dictatorship” and corrupt farce that is our two-party system should be dismantled. Parties give us temptations to attack opponents, become demagogues, and garner followers, distracting us from seeking the true good of the country. If we nevertheless wish to belong to a particular group of Americans with a clear identity, let us unite with all Americans of good will. Instead of saying, “I am a Republican” or “I am a Democrat”, let us rediscover the heritage bequeathed to us by our wise and farsighted national founders and try to grasp what it really means to say, “I am an American.” The United States was established by our founders as a nation that is too great to be defined by just two colors. Interestingly, the American flag contains some red and some blue, but the color most evenly spread throughout the flag is white. White can be thought of as a mixture of all political shades, and thus as a symbol of unity. Unity on the basis of the fundamental, universal moral truths enshrined in the hearts of all Americans and willingness to compromise on negotiable issues is what America needs now more than ever.

Occupational Therapy Jobs – Helping the Autistic
Written on August 31, 2010 at 12:49 am, by superdancin
People struggle to find the causes, cures, and treatments for these children. The extent that desperate parents will go to should not be underestimated. Every year children go through pseudo-medical practices to cure their children. Usually these treatments do little or no good and sometimes, the results were fatal. Occupational therapy has been one of the few consistently successful treatments. Occupational therapy is one of many fast growing medical fields, especially for the treatment of autism and other developmentally delayed children.
Occupation therapists are not concerned with finding cures. Their job is to help increase the quality of life and help get past the emotional and developmental barriers of autism. Their work with infants through adults that have developmental delays and help them achieve their fullest potential. They work to improve delays in motor skills, communications, and sensory integration just to name a few. Occupation therapy is on the front line in the battle against autism. They focus on motor skills, sensory overload issues, and communication. Occupational therapy provides many skills that have been used in the fight against autism.
For the toddlers and pre-teens, occupational therapist jobs may include behavior training and modification. This will help a person with sensory integration issues to be able to train themselves on behavior when faced with sensory overload or over stimulation. This helps to blend the children in with society, but also teaches them valuable coping skills. The therapist will also work to increase muscle coordination and balance. This is something that many developmentally delayed children have problems. This is done through games and carefully crafted exercises. Occupational therapists also work to teach the children different learning methods.
Occupational therapists work with teens and young adults to help them develop living skills. These skills range from personal hygiene, handling money, how to find work, and other skills that help them to function. Occupational therapist work with family and with the individual to help integrate the patient into society or to place them into a proper living condition, where care is provided. Occupation therapists work to teach the young adults and teens different learning methods.
Occupational therapy is an essential part of autism treatment teams, that work with autistic children. They use their training to help give these children and young adults the skills that they will need to integrate into society. Through their work, they give these children a feeling of belonging and skills that will help them to take care of themselves, with limited assistance. No cure exists for autism, there is no antidote, but with the hard work and diligence of occupational therapist, they have chances that were not available to them previously. Those looking into occupational therapist jobs are putting themselves, psychologists, and physical therapists, occupational therapists on the front line of autism treatment. Along with other professionals, such as neurologists is a powerful tool for the battle against autism.

Oil Field Employment – Do You Make These 3 Mistakes When Looking For an Oil Field Job?
Written on August 30, 2010 at 9:00 pm, by superdancin
In a troubled economy, even experienced workers have difficulty finding oil field employment. But if you keep your eyes open, there is always someone you know who has no problems getting hired for an oilfield job. Have you ever wondered what his secret is? Was it just plain dumb luck? Or was it because he has a glib tongue? Maybe he just knew the right people, or was born into the right family? However, what if you could make him tell you his secrets to finding jobs in oil field? He would probably say that he does not make these three mistakes. Three mistakes which 80% of job seekers make, sabotaging their chances of getting hired.
1. 80% Of People Looking for Oil Field Jobs Only Do This
How do you look for your oilfield jobs?
- Do you submit your resume to free online job boards like Monster?
- Do you submit your resume to recruitment agencies and your local employment board?
- Do you look for job advertisements in the newspaper?
- Do you visit the websites of the big oil companies like Shell and Halliburton to look for oil field job openings?
There is nothing wrong with doing all that, but if that is all you do, then you will get exactly the same results as 80% of the other job seekers. Almost everyone else does these same things, then stop and sit on their hands, twiddling their thumbs, waiting and wondering why no one is calling them for interviews?
Sorry, but that is the lazy man’s way. While that works when the economy is roaring, it doesn’t work when the economy is limping around. You have to be more pro-active, and walk the extra mile to look for oil field employment.
2. Most People Looking For An Oilfield Job Don’t Want To Spend Money
Some people are just too cheap, while others are too afraid of scams. They do not know how to write a good resume and cover letter, they do not want to pay $50 to get it written for them, and then they wonder why no one ever calls them for an interview. This is especially stupid when they don’t have any experience. A roustabout with 20 years of experience on the oil field can just slap down the 5 main things he did on his resume, and still get a call for an interview even with an ugly resume. But if you have ZERO experience, you had better spend some time and money to look good.
There are those people willing to work hard to look for oil field employment. They spend hours everyday, looking for oil company websites and sending their resumes to the Human Resource Department’s email address. There are two problems with that:
- Many companies don’t list their HR email. If you send a job application to some other email, your resume will just get trashed automatically
- Many smaller companies don’t even have a website. Unfortunately for you, many big oil companies outsource their oil drilling to these small oil field service contractors, which means these small contractors are the main employers.
The solution is simply to hire one of the specialist companies which send your resume to hundreds of oil companies at a time. Most of them charge around $100, and some are good, while others are not. You just have to ask around and take a risk.
3. Many Jobs In Oil Field Prefer To Hire Locals
Many job seekers only want to move into town after they get hired for an oilfield job. But if you are not a local, you will have trouble finding a cheap place to stay on short notice. Employers know that, which is one reason they prefer to hire locals. They don’t like to give a job to someone from out of town, only to have him say “Oops! I can’t find a place to stay. Bye bye!”
Basically, you need to make a commitment to the local community and find a place to stay long-term. Then you have a better chance of getting hired.
If you have trouble getting oil field employment, maybe it’s because you have been making the three mistakes above. Do what everyone else does, and you will get exactly the same results – which is NO oilfield job.

Tearing Down the Walls Recommitment in 2009
Written on August 29, 2010 at 12:20 pm, by superdancin
Socially Disadvantage communities and our youth future have taken another hit backwards in our nation from 2000 to 2008. What does 2009 hold for a nation plaque by racism, discrimination, and social injustice against our youth and our communities? Communities, youth, and families have continuously battled to feed their families and keep control of what is going on in the schools system at home and in their neighborhoods. As I travel through the Southern Bible Belt states and across the Midwest, I continue to see the same old problems in this trillion-dollar nation that we live in call America. Gas prices are off the roof, imports are still overwhelming our income, homes, and the price for life has taken us to foreclosure, while the rich continue to get richer and the poor stay socially disadvantage and under-served. The nation has lost its way due to the default of the American people judgment and values that have created insensitive Politian’s which have not stood for the people that have elected them.
However, we can only fault ourselves the people that put these individuals in office. We can’t blame anyone except our selves, for the mess in this country. Our vote for the right wing conservative politicians or politicians has gotten us in this mess. The problems regard foreclosures are due to the people not working and not having the proper finances to get through everyday life, jobs-income. If you don’t have money you can’t pay anybody. We can’t blame it totally on greedy banks that don’t help the community where their customers are because we allow it. We need to make these banks accountability for being in our neighborhoods. Too much money coming in ,and not enough going into the communities that these Banks are serving. We need to take ownership of poor judgment with the services of corporations and financial institutions that want to be in our neighbors. Many of these companies build in low -income areas but do nothing to revitalize the community except build high income homes to move out low-income families. The fault lies in the community for allowing these our government officials to have the power over us as they bail out big corporations and allow families to continue to struggle to feed each other.
Foreign influence controls our lives and the government gives permission to big business to take our jobs out of this country and leave us to homelessness, crime, and despair. Lou Dobbs of CNN has continued to express his concerns on helping the people of this country and has asked the Administration to reach out to the people. We as a nation are not demanding anything of our government and allowing our government officials and CEO’s to rap this country blind and them take it oversees for big profits. We as a people don’t share the same agenda to help one another and to keep our child safe as Dr. King work so hard to make these changes in America and the world. What can we do if anything to savage a problem that the state and local law makers don’t want to touch?
Discrimination is an insult to a nation with people of all colors and values, but we still continue to divide our true principles in life. Not Caring!
Due to the growing Billions spent in Iraq many of our citizens and veterans are left homeless with a Trillion dollar bill that becomes a taxpayer’s nightmare. Everything is affected by this war in Iraq but our Politicians move on to the next phase of their lives and continues to rake in the money from their interest with big lobbyist. Our Administration has become billionaires in 8 years and has continued to rap the country blind. The money that corporations and our politicians are getting from big lobbyist and contracts like Halliburton for Iraq and Afghanistan is a shame. This Administration is and has been out of touch with mainstream America needs. Taxes cuts for the rich only help the rich. The rich continue to get richer and the other class of Americans in this country continues to lose everything they have worked so hard for. It’s a lot talk about helping the American people but people in this country need immediate help not a lot of talk.
CNN and other network broadcasting news stations are having discussion about the economy and how the failing government can bailout big banks like Bear Stearns and watch politician raise millions of dollars to become the newly elected President of the United States, but we can’t help the American people in New Orleans or get books in our dilapidated schools. Why does it cost so much to become President only to rap the people of this country once again. Senator Clinton, Senator Obama, and Senator McCain has spent millions for a campaign while the economcy is falling to it knees. It’s a shame that they along with the rest of those Senators spend billions of dollars for a race that only helps the rich. Shouldn’t you be tried of this kind of politics?
Minorities especially Black African American people in this country have been discriminated against for more then 400 years, yes, slavery ended but discrimination has went on and on. The unemployment rate is double when it come to African American and that has been the problem sense slavery. African Americans are continually getting the shaft on the jobs, better schools, and within the community that they live in. Poverty in our communities is growing like a plague and the rich get richer and the poor stay poor, yes you have heard this before. The community and outreach centers for the under-served community have gone and we haven’t replaced them, only to see empty and vacant buildings only to be torn down and sold to developers, while watching developers buy the land and build new homes that are out of reach financially for that community which is being displaced. Poor people just don’t have an advocate with enough muscle and power to make a change in America.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., died in 1968 because he was the advocate for the under-severed (poor people) and they kill him for it. Dr. King was struggling to change how people look at one another. Blacks living in New York or white people living in Mississippi or Kentucky without Health care is no different when it come to discrimination. It’s being poor. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. fought to tear down the walls for injustice. He fought for equality and fairness but the rules change rapidly and many of the issues he fought for went underground. Yes, we have had some strive in equality but it hasn’t fixed a broken people yet in this country.
Washington, DC and the power to be continued work the same way they have been for decades, but we as a people can make changes among our own lives to help one another and to cherish the values that we have in our families for this nation.
The USDA National Statistical Service and U.S. Census Bureau, provides statistics of despair indicating a decrease in minority farming, loans, home buying, the list goes on and it continues to get worst. You don’t need to have a degree in Business, Agriculture, or Mathematics to see that American minorities are hurting and no one cares. Just go to your local business and see the disparity among professional jobs, with Black-man/women, Hispanic-man/women and other minorities that make up this rich nation of our. The prices that the poor people pay is astounding and it is going to get worst everyday.
In 2006 the Forbes Magazine posted it Forbes 400 Billionaires in this country. We should have people in this country that has exceeds the rules, but when it come at the expense of the people doing the work that a shame. Many of these Billionaires became wealth because someone else did the work and they capture the riches by providing the management, guidance’s, and money to get those riches. But we need to continue to help those that are less fortunate and help them achieve they goals as well.
However, discrimination has continued to knock the doors down and others out of business. There has been a lot of celebration in the 20th century for many reasons, Civil Rights moments, and the death of Reverend Dr. Orange a civil rights leader, the opening of the Rosa Parks Museum, and the 40th Anniversary of the tragic assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in Memphis, Tennessee and the list goes on. We should have leaned a lot sense Dr. King’s death but the walls of injustice are still a part of African American people and it needs to be torn down and rebuilt so that social structure or reorganization is done. Our society continues to put-up walls so our low-income American can’t survive in an industry that make Trillions for some. Although racism and discrimination was even stronger them it has not lost any wind sense 1968.
Tearing Down The Walls should have been our first priority in the 20th Century but we are 4 months into the 2008 fiscal year and 2009 is staring us down. We should turn up the heat and eliminated the Walls that divide us. The power brokers in this country need to change how they look at poverty and not shove it under the carpet. Many of these issues are continuing, growing problems between our country and we as a people need to continue the battle and make our leader accountable. Discrimination can be reformed by understanding the anger that has interrupted the progress for success. We need to reposition our values that fuel these problems and stand-up and fight for equal justice for all, like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. did for All. His fire has always been in us, let’s not give it back and fight for our rights.
