| | | Do we need a revolution? Yes! For too long this government has abused its power. For too long politicians have forgotten about their duty to the American people. For too long the rich and the powerful have turned us against one another. It is time for real change, not for lengthy debates in richly halls while every day more Americans are losing their jobs and homes.
How much longer will the American people be party to this great farce? These political parties are not loyal to us, no, they are mere actors on a stage..and the American people..they are but a willing audience. We must all rise up and cast down this bloated and sickly creature we call the United States Government. We must retake control, and steer this country back on course and in doing so guide us towards not just economic prosperity, but towards a future of strength.
Under new, stronger leadership this country can once again be entirely self-sufficient. Once again, we will be manufacturing our own goods, instead of importing goods soaked in the sweat and blood of the poor and the ignorant. Under new leadership we will once again possess the mightiest war machine, and with it we will ensure security across our borders. | | |  | Junior Member | |

| | | I believe a revolution has already begun: economic banking crisis, loss of entire job sectors, budget crisis at the state and local levels, and now a crisis in Europe that is unprecedented. We live in a fantasy world that is based on the idea that "growth" is infinite but history has defined us without prejudice. We live in a global culture where we do not have the resources to support the planet and we are already seeing the results of that. That is what destroyed the Roman Empire, the Mayan culture, and all great civilizations - their inability to find the resources to support their needs. I believe our dependence on fossil fuels, the thing that has created the world in which we live will ultimately be the thing that will destroy us; it is a finite resource and there is nothing to replace it. All the other sources of energy combined -solar, wind or nuclear energy will not be able to replace what oil enables us to do. Our world will change and the U.S. Will feel the most pain because we have created a culture which uses the most energy.
True revolutionaries are willing to give up their lives because the world they inhabit is so terrible that they are willing to sacrifice themselves for change. One only need to look back at all revolutions including the latest revolution in Egypt - people managed to change their govt through social networking but people were still killed. I believe eventually this country will revolt against the system we have come to know as the industrial complex. I believe revolution is inevitable as we are at the tip of a very long iceberg. And so my answer to this question "Should American have another revolution?" should really be "When will the citizens of the U.S. Start the revolution" because in essence all the dominos are lined up and beginning to fall. | | |  | Junior Member | |

| | | The short answer is yes. The very nature of this country has changed over the years to resemble something more like a dictatorship. Revolutionary speech is now considered to be anti-American or anti government which is a dangerous precedent. America was started by a revolution and the founding fathers knew and wrote about the difficulties in keeping a republic. Remember that America belongs to the people not to the government! It is no secret that modern day politicians are corrupt elitist that believe they know what's best for you. Don't be fooled into thinking that the answer to the united states problems lies in the governments hands, we have the power! I think the biggest struggle would be asking people to leave their McMansions, their reality T.V. And their celebrity gossip to join a revolution in the first place. There are two possible outcomes of a revolution at this point One, the people rise against a tyrannical government and they heed our wishes, which I believe would lead to a renaissance period in which culture is revived during a period of austerity where art, innovation and business growth occur free from government red tape and regulation. The second scenario is a bit scarier in which the government would fight back against the people which could bring on violence and martial law. This second scenario would be a nightmare, essentially destroying the fabric of security and leave our country vulnerable to attack and disenfranchisement. In either scenario, the government would be forced to show it's hand which is the point of a revolution. I hope we have a peaceful transition from our current state back to a constitutional and more liberated union however, if the need arises I would hope that the good people of this nation would fight tooth and nail to preserve their freedom from government oppression. I know I would be in front fighting for my fellow man no matter what that means. Unite and take back the liberties we have fought for so proudly and lets take back our right to live as free people! | | |  | Junior Member | |

| | | I've lived in the US all my life..and things have only
I'm sick of police brutality increasing.
Racism increasing.
Jobs decreasing.
Tax increasing to fund wars that I really don't give a **** about nor agree with.
Example: 9-11 so some easterns bombed the twin towers.. I honestly think it was our
Own government, but I can't prove that, so let's just say eastern people did.. It
Was just a group of them who for some reason wanted to, not the whole ****ing country
America had no right to invade Iraq. That made us look like complete *******s.
They took away my healthcare and now I'm in dept in hospital fees to stay alive..
What the ****! You can't put a price on the ILL.
I watched my grandparents literally work their bones apart and eventually they got to retire,
They worked their entire lives and it's like they really had nothing to show for it.
I believe min. Wage should increase big time, you need to think life is short and some people use their time to serve people out a window, just because it doesn't require education doesn't mean your not
Spending the time of your life to serve people, I just don't understand a the difference between
A lawyer and a bust boy, either way your using your life time.
The government lies, and hides **** from everybody and we deserve to know every bit of it.
Their is stuff they know we don't that would blow our minds...
And as I was currently reading other posts and writing this, I've seen 4 cops drive by my house in
15 minutes.. I have no privacy in my life anymore..
I could rant about how ****ed up this place is for days straight..
But obviously we can't talk things over with the government,
All word is a whole bunch of verb
So step up
Get the **** off of WoW and modern warfare 3
Stop going to clubs and getting drunk partying your life away
Get your eyes off the TV watching your old western movies and "reality" shows.
Your being enslaved, and mind ****ed
Step up you *****
And lock and load!

| | | Yes. Period. Our founding fathers are rolling in their graves right now and have been since just after the civil war. If you know the causes of the original revolution, they are EXTREMELY minor compared to the latest infringements hurled on us by the incorporated us "govt". As someone watching this for awhile, the talk of revolution has increased 100 fold in the past 3 years and people are finally starting to get some fortitude to fight back. Bring it on. | | |  | Junior Member | |
