Here we are again

As if we needed any further evidence that a two party system fails the people miserably, we have the debt "crisis" on our hands.

What has the discourse shown us?  That all the two party system can do is point fingers, ignore their own participation in the problem and produce lot's of rhetoric.

Both parties have contributed to over spending equally.  Both parties have engaged in under  the table deals with corporations and billionaire with social agendas.

It is way past time to end partisan politics.

Candidates should run on their own platform and impress Americans on what they can do for everyone, not what they plan to do with and for their party, whether the rest of us like it or not.

Just like the corruptive corporate tax laws that allow people to hide from personal and community responsibilities and obligations, political parties make it easy for candidates to not have to be personally responsible for the laws they propose and vote on to the people at large.

Political parties are nothing more than money raising machines working to indoctrinate people into a singular philosophy and pits folks into an "us vs them" frame of mind.

As we watch the "debt crisis" talks, we see the ridiculousness of how both these parties have failed the American public at large by engaging in shenanigans, cronyism, pork barrel spending and self entitlement.

Neither wants to accept responsibility for the situation yet both have have equal involvement for getting us to this point.

For the betterment of all the people in this country, political parties, just like corporate status, must go.

Oh, and if you plan to give the old "the ends justify the means" arguments to try to justify the presence of either corporations or political parties, that boat doesn't float either.
