The old joke goes…  What do you call a thousand lawyers at the bottom of the sea?  A good start…hahaha

Historically speaking lawyers are paid problem starters that are great at creating tons of documentation while accumulating a crap load of billable hours.  More often than not, many of them aren’t usually really very good at creating problems rather than solutions.  Bankers on the other hand love taking huge risk while play with other peoples money and have already more than prove to have no problem relegating people lives to nothing more than line items on a spread sheet which was proven after the mortgage crisis of 2007/8.  Thanks to their lawyer buddies they seem to have created the perfect tag team they gamed the system in their favor that green lite their efforts to destroy peoples lives while making a crap load of money by doing so as they have more than proven to be untouchable.  Never having to worry about being held accountable for their mistakes even when they break the law.

Now, don’t get me wrong, people who traditionally come from these two backgrounds can be quite brilliant and they are clearly not all bad.  But, all it takes is a handful of these twisted psychopaths to really mess shit up for us all!  Especially when most of them spend their entire careers trying interpreting laws and speculating trends for the favor their uber rich clients who represent such a small percentage of the worlds population, do you really think its a good idea to let these people dictate public policy?  Has anyone ever even stop to wonder why the richest get richer in the stock market, while all those other investors seem to take a bath?

Reality Slap! 

Regardless of the great divide these people create what has and always will make our nation great is the vast diversity and multitude of different perspectives derived from the many different backgrounds of the people who make up this great nation.  Unfortunately, both the US Congress and Senate clearly do not represent that diversity of our nation which is why we’ve been driving in the wrong direction for the past few decades…  A good example of what I mean is an image taken from an article I found on the Washington Post.

And, this is not just new trend!

The sad reality is more that more than half of the US Congress and Senate are lawyers and bankers and lawyers for quite some time which has clearly proven to be a recipe for disaster.  Gee… I wonder why both the Congress and Senate have a long-lasting love affair with creating monstrous laws packed with thousands of pages of documentation that seem to always protect big biz and big banks while do nothing to stop the destruction of our global economy.  ANYONE SURPRISED HERE!  American didn’t start out that way and it certainly will not survive if this trend continues on unchanged.

The sad part is our nation was founded by writers, shop keepers, physicians, philosopher, farmers and tradesmen.  Granted many of them did have legal expertise back them but you have to keep in mind, in that day and age people lives did not revolve around one singular specialize profession like they do now.  Quit often we were the masters of many different trades.  It’s pretty amazing what you can accomplish when you life doesn’t revolve around the limitless distraction of provided by TV and celebrity gossip…lol

Yet, these seemingly wide array of different people from many different backgrounds crafted the foundation for one of the most powerful and liberating nations on the planet.  Granted, our nation was founded on the backs of slaves and the genocide of millions of people who live in America first.  But sadly, those really were the methods used to create pretty much every country/kingdom for thousands of years prior to the early 1800’s.  What is true is that these great men dreamed and looked forward to eventually break the trend of thousands of years of primitive practices.  That is why the drafted our constitution the way they did, they knew that things eventually need to change even though their current state of the world was not ready…they had a better vision of what the future held.  So they helped lay the foundation to create a world better than the ones they were apart of.  That is what made America so great!  So suck it all those none believers…lol

Now, tragically we seem to be slipping back to the the world they aspired to help us one day over come…

Ironically, these founding fathers envisioned a nation that opposed leaving it under siege/control of a bunch of lawyers and especially bankers.

Reality Slap…

With lawyers and bankers at the helm for many decades, America has taken a tragic ideological U-Turn back to same mentality that ruled the early 1700’s which was ironically what inspired us to break away from England’s rule to begin with.  Taxation without representation still happens to this day as we have somehow forgotten the importance of keeping a close eye let our leaders. We’ve become a nation the reveres career politicians when the whole point of elections was to make sure that these positions of power were not intended to be as such.  They tell use they are here to create prosperity and peace for all, yet their actions promote/support war, genocide, drug trafficking, chemical dependance and have been responsible for the death, destruction and injuries to billions of innocent people around the world. Gee… no wonder everyone fricken hate us!  We’ve lost our place as the beacon of hope the world once revered and become a shadow of who were once were.

Of which is tragically ironic seeing as so many people in today America claim that we are more evolved than we ever were.  Yet racial, religion and ethnic inequality are at an all time high and our freedoms are disappearing at a rapid rate and on a larger scale than ever before in our history.  The best example I could possibly give is the fact that the last time I checked, not to long ago, we were a nation at war with the very idea communism and pretty much made it our mission crushed it.  Then, for some reason we magically decided that is was actually a great idea to suddenly support it?  Seriously…  What the hell just happened?  Why did no one raised a stink? Well, because we got lawyer-ed by a bunch of big banks who saw that they could profit from another countries acts of slavery.   Wow… Just WOW!  How is it that one of the most enduring historical events in our nations history is the fact hat it almost got destroyed by the very notion of slavery, yet no one see’s the irony?   Hey, as long as we get a bunch of cheap shit, who care right!  The reality is, that was when our nation started to go down the tubes…

Possible Solutions…  

Although these problems may seem to big to take on, I will post many possible ideas while trying to get to the route cause of our nations woes.  If you want to follow me as I write about many topics in my future blog posts that will help shine the light on the the cause of these problems while looking at some cool ideas on how to eliminate the obstacles that are holding our great nation backs.

To give you just a couple short glimpses at some of the ideas that may help get our nation back on track, check these out!  And yes, some of them I’ve mentioned in other blog posts but the need to be repeated so you get the point at how important they are. Besides, I can’t come up with all the ideas people and I still need to save a few for my other blog post…lol  What the hell would I be able to write about if I just dumped them all on one post…lol

1. Don’t elect anymore lawyers/bankers as we must learn to look beyond a resume and the candidates ability to raise funds!  Try to elect people with a “REALISTIC” plans, who exhibit the passion and ability to be honest with the voters regardless of whether you agree with them on all the issues.
2. Get involve and promote candidates who can show you a plan to accomplish their campaign promises and who do more than just tell you what you want to hear and promote them on social media.  Create new ways to discuss why you think a candidate is a good pick rather than just their cleverly crafted talking points.
3. Most importantly!  Stop re-electing leaders who have voted on issue you are against and accept the reality that voting for a    candidate who is of the same political party simply doesn’t work anymore.  You really need to snap out of this fantasy world that just because someone says that “they are on your side” as a Democrat or Republican doesn’t make them an ally or enemy.  Bad people have relied on this deceitful illusion since the beginning of time in order to trick people into trusting them.  DON’T BE THAT GUY/GAL!

I will be posting future blogs on many different political topics/solutions and discussing them in greater detail in the near future so keep an eye out for them.  As I am sure you will be shocked at how easy it really is to change the game of U.S. politics for the betterment on the people many of us wee folk would be pleasantly surprised to see that it’s a lot easier to affect change than we are led to believe!

The reality is we the solutions to many of these problems are out in the hearts and minds of the voters.  That is one of the reason I am putting together a series of short documentary films and a full feature movie featuring people who are willing to share various realistic ideas on how we can solve this particular problem.  Helping American come up with better ideas on how to help solve some of our nation’s biggest problems.  So please feel free to share your ides in out comment section or go to our “I Have A Great Idea” form and share it with us!

The films will feature political satire, comedic performance and deep discussions about ideas, plan and programs that can help get our nation back on track as we’ll discuss these topics with some of our nation’s most influential leaders.  Exploring some of the most promising ideas/solutions we find while giving the general public a chance to chime in and share their own possible solution then let some of our nations most promising future leaders from various high schools and colleges around the nation give it a shot as well.

So who knows, maybe you may get a shot at being in one of our short film or Helping to inspire our nation’s youth to get more involved in the process of building a better America!  So stay tuned, sign up for our blog updates and hold onto your seats… it’s going to one crazy ride and we’ll show you how you can take the wheel in your community and become to solution to our nations problems!

The fight between these two parties has rocked the world for over 100 years…

Throughout history people have believed that it is the duty of every American to choose and ideological sides that best reflects who you are as a person.  The goal of this process was to help create balance and to citizens find other like minded people so they could come together and find/elect leaders who best represent their ideals.   Unfortunately, we are a nation of individuals so although this ideas sounds great in theory, it really doesn’t work the way it was intended.

When it all comes down to it the Democratic party represents the interests of social welfare while promoting the people’s well being and that governments job is to be the mediator/protector of the people.  The Republicans party basically represents the free enterprise system, individual liberty/responsibility and the government job is protect the citizens, not take care of them.  Although, both parties claim to care about the Constitution, freedom and liberty the details of what each party truly represents is clearly more complex that just that, but this should give you a basic idea of how it all pans out in the end.

So What’s The Problem?

The problem is, it is becoming quit clear this party system really isn’t working that way anymore!  So, we’ll discuss the perils and potential of both parties in this series while trying to get the the root cause of why the voters are so disenchant with their and the opposing parties ability, progress and lack of success.

What confusing most American’s nowadays is the fact that each party is now broken up in to several separate subsections.  With each of these small groups in both parties promoting a different perspective they seem to pull the entire party in different directions all the time.  And, it is really this tug of war that causes most of our problems.  Ironically, it has created an even larger party than either of these two called the Independent Party.  That, and the fact that both parties have switch sides on ideological perspective plenty of time throughout history to win votes, it really makes one wonder.  Who do these elected officials really represent?

One thing for certain is the fact that the leaders from each party would have the voters believe that they are on complete opposite sides of the political spectrum and can’t agree on anything.  But, in reality, they agree on a lot and all the things.  It’s just none of them really help the voters and quite often they pretty much never do what the voters what.  Of which, is the exact opposite of what a Democracy is suppose to be.  One of the best shore outlines of what a Democracy is can be found here.

My question is, doesn’t anyone find it strange that they can agree on issues like:

-Undeclared wars
-Patriot Act
-FISA
-DHS
-Torture
-The American Empire and our interventionist foreign policy
-The Federal Reserve and fiat currency
-The internationalist agenda by allowing the CFR to sway foreign policy

And, ironically.  None of these things that both parties agree coincide what both parties say they agree on… you know, the Constitution, freedom and liberty?  Does this sound like they are really looking out for the well being of the people when you consider this reality?  In a world where people have disowned family members, friends and have even refused to discuss or disclose their political beliefs for fear of retaliation.  How do can we ever expect us to get along if we can’t even entertain or associate with people because of their political beliefs.  Does that sound sane to you?

Reality Slap – Ironically, many people really don’t realize, or can even fathom for that matter, that in fact both parties have flip-flopped and changes their position on key issues many times.  So, in reality, it is very possible that your political party whose values that you now hold so dear at one time stood for exactly the opposite of what you currently now believe in.

The mere fact that almost every leader in both parties is trying to paint the entire opposing group of people as “bad” defies common sense.  You can’t blame an entire group people for the actions of a few!  That’s like saying everyone in your family is a crook because one of them stole a loaf of bread.  It’s that very same mentality that is the root cause of all our nations biggest problems.  If many crimes are committed by those of color, than all those of color are bad and should be treated like third rate citizens.  If a few people take advantage of welfare, then all people on welfare at taking advantage and are too lazy to get a job.  If a few jerks with gun are irresponsible, then all gun owners should suffer because they are all irresponsible

Does any of this sound reasonable to you?

It’s usually never the group of people you should be worried about or angry at, it’s most often the individuals in the group that are willing to do evil things then hide behind their group you should be worried out.  The fable about the “Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing” has been around for a while and for very good reason!  The reason this happen is really quit simple…attitude reflect leadership!

One of the things that we all know in life is that if you want to be successful or a better person.  Do what successful people do!  The problems is, sometimes if we see these people we idolize and put on a pedestals do crappy things, we begin to think that its not only OK to do the same thing.  But necessary if we want to be a success like them.  Our problem is that both parties suck so bad at doing their job and don’t really have any realistic solutions that work.  The only thing they can do to cover up their failures is to create drama and blame an entire group of people to cover up the fact that they are just as bad as the other party.

After all, if they really were better.  Then why don’t they just prove it by offering a realistic plan instead of creating plans that make all these lofty promises which only serve to cover up the fact that many of these promises come at a cost which will only cause worse problems down the road…

Solutions – Well, this one really isn’t so simple.  Just kidding, it really is.  Seeing as both parties are filled with career politician who love to do nothing but create villains and focus the blame of their own failures on someone else.  It’s really hard to outright say which party really is the better party when both parties are dominated by a bunch of real assholes and very few really good leaders.  The problem is when you have less good people than bad, the bad always overpower the good.

This diversion tactic has always been the most effective tool for those that wish to deceive.  When in reality, especially with politics, the only thing that either really offers as a reason to elect them over the parties candidate is because the other party is so bad…lol  In a world where we should really elect these leaders based on who has the best plan, rarely do you see a candidate with any plan on how to accomplish what they promise.  So why do we keep electing these people, especially the career politician’s with a strong track record for failure?  The truth is, that the reason so many people believe we need laws the impose term limits on U.S. Elected officials.  When almost 80% of our nation believe that these national leader need term limits it baffles me.

What baffles me is not that we all know the career politician need to be changed out regularly as they are clearly hurting our nations future.  What leaves me scratching my head is that we are so distracted we don’t even realize that new laws to impose term limits on these leaders aren’t needed.  All we need to do is simply elect anyone but the current U.S. Representative holding office during the next Primary Elections.  Then repeat that same process every two terms and the voters get what we all know is needed.  New leaders and new ideas!  Especially when almost “ALL” the older ones simply are not cutting it any longer.

Our biggest problem is that we all get caught up in the drama!  We all fall for the, “Our party needs to win,” mantra when in reality it doesn’t really matter which party wins.  What matters is that the people win!  And, right now, no one is winning accept the very people who created this mess to begin with…

And those people keep getting elected year after year because they have us fighting amongst ourselves when we need to working together.  Maybe its time we set and example for the elected officials instead of following the poor one they set for us… after all, it’s clear they either don’t know how to fix the problems they created or simply don’t want to!

I’ll talk about this game of deception in greater detail in this blog series as well as discuss some other crazy ideas and ways to change the game of politics with my future blog posts.  So keep an eye out for, “The Magic of Politics” and “Increasing the Odds of Finding a Better Candidate”.

An unbiased political perspective that exposes the realities behind U.S. politics.

Whether we know it or not, every decision made by elected officials in our local, state or federal branches of government are directly responsible for the prosperity of every citizen of the world.

All to often we believe we have no power, no way to fix a clearly broken and dysfunctional system of national management that leave us with leaders who regularly refuse to focus on the problems the voter want them to take care of.Here we talk about everything Politics as we explore various perspectives, ideas and theories to explain how this world works.

Helping to prepare humanity by making them more aware of what really goes on behind closed doors, we also try to explore some possible solutions to help give the people of the power to world change the game.

As a nation we are led to believe that those in charge of our future are the best of the best…  Looking around at the actions of our leaders over the past few decades, we all know that this can’t possibly be true.   Every year the revolving door politics give us carbon copies of the very people we want to get ride of.  And, quite frankly, most of the people we currently have in in office pretty much suck at what they do… Don’t take my word for, just look outside and see all the chaos these faux leaders have created.

The only thing we get every election cycle is false hope and promise.  Once elected all they do is tell us the issues we want them to focus on aren’t as important as the ones they decided are then start fighting amongst themselves and the opposing party while nothing of real merit ever really gets done.  It is quit clear that they don’t represent the will of the voter as the often repeatedly refuse to focus on the issues the people want them too.  How is the fair to the American people?

Here we plan to explain to you why this is the case by slowly introducing you to a common sense approach that will help you not only better understanding the realities of U.S. Politics.  But, help encourage people to share with us their ideas on how to solve the problem.  Some will be great, some will be funny while others may be completely devoid of reality and leave you scratching your head as you try to figure out how this person even functions as a human being…

All are welcome (well, maybe not all…lol) and we encourage comments as we’ll be openly discussing these issues and insights as often as we can here on this blog site.

SO WELCOME TO POLITICAL REALITY!
