    I doubt they send the money to where they tell us.

    The Federal Reserve lost $9,000,000,000,000 and when questioned by house representative Alan Grayson as to where that money went, they were unable to answer. That's quite worrying, considering the chairman of the Fed was also unable to provide answers.

    They're con artists.

    Actually the stupid ones are those who don't put out the effort to vote. If more people voted we just might get better people in office.

    The country is broke because the rich and big business don't pay their fair share of taxes. They (the rich and big business) dictate a lot of government policy. Could someone remind me why the US went to war in Iraq and Afghanistan?

    because the very powerful people who own the biggest corporations, the real bosses, tell the government to do it.

    This is because we are not very educated in politics. We need to learn about politicians before we vote. I do respect our President but he nor many congressman ever talk about cutting foreign aid or IMF contributions. Yet he is dismantling our great military.

    John Kerry was just over in Egypt giving that President (the one with ties with the Muslim Brotherhood, who took it upon himself to eliminate parts of thier "new reformed" constitution to remain in power) 230 million and promised 1 billion more from Obama this doesn't sound like the "democracy" I learned in school old school

    Of course you and I may know that but 90% of the American public doesn't know or care. We give billions away then we cut from our own country. It is a shame.
