Not to mention the 95% bureaucrat's salary continuation when they leave office, automatic pay raises, and Elite Medical Benefits for life.

It's high time we all unite to bring this "Tower of Babel" down.

Leaving real, honest, hard working Americans to fight over the scraps left over from their feast.

Yeah but those health care benefits are worthless because it is government run.

No business is too big to fail. When a large business fails, numerous smaller businesses pick up the slack. This actually CREATES more jobs for everyone.

Sure, the economy takes a hit, but the 'capitalists fueled by greed' want to make the money that these failed companies lost. So they create businesses and jobs in order to do that.

Yes...Those in search of profit will always respond to demand. Failure opens up opportunity for new players...and usually more efficiency,quality and service.

I could not agree more!!...but...replace it with what? I fail to see any system that eventually will refrain from returning to tyranny. I'd love to hear a plan on "how to restrain ANY governmental system". The founders failed...and I think it was the best attempt thus far.
