The hype in this country is if you're from the "left" you want something, and if you're from the "right" you want something else. And that's all there is. Either you're one or the other.
But if you're not, you have no say in what happens to your country. This is so fucked up. It's not in the Constitution. It's complete fucking bullshit.
I could be a member of the Green Party or the Skier's Consortium or the Urbandwellers or the Cowtowners. And no one would care what I think. Supposedly.
A friend asked what would be my call to action.
Thanks for asking.
Here it is.
1. Cut the fucking drama.
2. Pass the debt ceiling. No new taxes. No cuts to anything.
3. STFU.
4. Do your fucking jobs.
5. Maybe we'll let you go back next year.
That's my program.
PS: I'm a member of the American Voters Party. How about that.
