Thank you and I agree with most of that but not all. I believe our ridiculous military spending and numerous foreign interventions will be our demise, just as has happened to all prior militaristic empires.I wouldn't say that although I do understand your feeling on the two party's....Too many times in the recent past Republican's have either caved to spending measures in order to claim bi partisanship. They haven't stuck to core conservative principles such as less taxation, less regulation, and reducing the size, and scope of the federal government....At the same time you have admire the Democrats for playing the long game.
They (Dems) have never backed away from continuing to spend freely for their own agenda, while at the same time labeling Republican's as the obstructers....
All we can do is continue to hold the politician's we vote for accountable at the ballot box, that is our role...We didn't get into this mess overnight, it won't be solved overnight...
As a Constitutional Conservative, I am for less government, lower taxation, strong, well funded military, and less regulation that allows business to continue to provide the opportunity that made the American dream great...
I have come to respect your opinion over time, not because you're against both parties, but rather because unlike some others in here, who claim to be where you are, but focus their attacks at only one faction of one party, you have posted at BOTH sides....That is what an independent should do.
Anyway, I hope that makes sense....
