I no longer recognize our system of government. Growing up we had a two party democracy with conservatives, moderates, and liberals. Now, I see a government controlled by an oligarchy presenting the facade of a two party system. The moderates from both side of the aisle no longer exist. We are polarized and do not accept compromise. Conservatives have learned the practice of disseminating lies couched in evasive rhetoric. The liberals have fallen behind, amateurs in that practice. There is no truth, accountability or honor in politics today.

Eric: What prompted you to share this list of personal opinions, claims, and non-substantiated accusations? Did you have a point to make? Just stating these things as you have leaves little room for argument or open debate. You speak as if everything you say is corroborated or confirmed. But without tying the allegations to anything of an empirical source, it just comes off like a laundry list of your personal opinions. Why, then, should we care?
