Who controls our thoughts? The media? Political Parties? Johnny Carson from beyond the grave? Or are we in control of what we think?

I think each of us is responsible for our thoughts. Correct me if your wrong, but each of us has the responsibility to be right. Some of us are stupid. Some of us are not. Most of us are somewhere in the middle, naturally smart, but just a little too busy with our personal lives to be concerned with day to day mechanisations of the “big picture.” We leave that up to others, that is until they take us horribly towards the wrong direction….

Usually, through out the course of human history, that can be summed up thusly: leadership pursuing their own interests, instead of ours… Basically in a nut shell, that is where governments have ALWAYS gone wrong.

Government is for the people, of the people, and by the people… If run under that principal, then no matter what type of government it is, it does well. When that philosophy no longer applies, the inevitable revolution rises from pervasive discontent and instability, chaos, death, destruction, financial collapse reign until a new stability is established. As time passes, the new government loses its idealism, becomes self serving, and the cycle again repeats itself….

Our goal as individuals is to keep our government focused on us. Doing so, keeps our costs down, our lives stable, and opportunity available… Stability and low costs are requirements for continuous opportunity. Therefore we as citizens need to take ownership of our government again; we need to take our government away from the political parties that have held it hostage the last fifteen years, and we need to focus on remarkable individuals, put them into positions of leadership, and let them deal with the problems to which they are dealt…

If the person is smart, they will figure the best solution… What smart, intelligent person is going to do the wrong thing that will ruin him along with the rest of us? Too often we have elected stupid people because “a party” told us too. Unfortunately, the person the were running against, were probably “stupid” as well.. Every candidate from here forward, needs to tell his or her party to fuck off and begin running our government on ideas that work…
