I want to scream like the character in the movie, "Network" - I am MAD as HELL and I am not going to take it anymore!
But, I don't know what to DO about it since the politicians don't listen and the only people running for Congress are people who have compromised their honesty and integrity for politics and prestige.

  You have been the premier poster of military news articles on Propeller, Bubba2.
  And I am not talking about love-our-troops items which people post to give themselves a patriotic thrill.
  You have posted on veterans benefits, health services, stop-gap issues, equipment issues, service issues, military contract issues, family issues, and all the detailed items the government would just as soon see deep-sixed into the back of the paper next to the church-sale news.
  Thanks for doing so.
  Means something.

    Taking to the streets helps.
    What is left to do?
    Let us, to the degree that we can, decrease our consumption, particularly our oil. Let us do things which are profitable, but monetarily so - those things can't effectively be taxed.
    It is easier in rural areas - there are plenty of folks in the back woods who earn little money "on the books" but through barter, growing their own food, hunting etc are fat and happy -
    If we are tired of it, lets speak out, but lets also starve the beast!
