As for the fact about the money they have, all politicans are richer than we could ever hope to be.
There is no politician that will ever come from the ghetto to be President. It's just impossible, becuase if you ever hope to be President you have to be born rich.
Which I think is unfair, becuase this country was built on letting everyone have a voice.
If eveyone can vote, why can't everyone run?
They can try, but no one will win, and that upsets me more than any political descision.

That's the system... what's even worse though, is that Bush got into office like a King would.. by heritage.

His brother, Jeb, got the brains. Jeb Bush, the govenor of Florida, has done a great job since 1998.

Trauma pretty much argued that Kerry is a bastard blacks shouldnt vote for cause he's rich. That's of course an absurd thing to claim, but I let it slide. So in consequence I felt like I had to clear up that Kerry ain't got the money from filthy things, like Cheney. Which makes him less of an asshole in my opinion.

My point is: Don't you think it's a little despicable that John Kerry (and tons, of others) go on Television, acting like they're for the poor man, acting like they're for blacks in the country, and the way they pander to these individuals, then turn right around and do things that help opress them? How can people complain about the money Bush has, when it's nowhere NEAR the money Kerry has? Kerry doesn't even know what the fuck a hotdog is. He's so far removed from regular people, that for him to go on television and act like he's a champion of the poor is fucking DISGUSTING. How does it help a poor guy to have him join a union? Kerry thinks it does. Kerry thinks it's o.k., for a black man to get a job, with a union, at 20 dollars an hour or whatever the union will get him the job at.... and make the employer pay that employee 20 dollars an hour. Then, like the unions, he thinks it's o.k. to make it almost impossible for that employer to fire the black man they just hired at 20 dollars. Sounds great, right? I guess it's great if you're not the employer, but where the bullshit comes in is, John Kerry also thinks it's alright for the rich white guys who run the UNION, to basically 'fire' the employee for whatever reason they see fit. If the union leaders can't get something done, they will pull the plug and require the black guy to quit, for however long they see fit.
That's fucking enslavery. It takes away any individual rights of the black guy in this example, and puts them in the hands of the rich motherfuckers running the union (who pay themselves nice big fat multi million dollar paychecks).
Lets say the black guy in question was a great worker, and the greatest worker in the plant. He gets 20 bucks an hour. His buddy, a poor white guy, is the fucking biggest loser on the earth. He doesn't do his job, he fucks stuff up, and makes the black guy work twice as hard to fix it. Can the place fire this loser? Probably not, because the union would have a fit. So it also takes away the ability for the black guy to suceed on his own merits in his job, because there's no accountability involved.
That's just a little bit of rambling on the topics of UNIONS, imagine if I started bitching about EVERYTHING the liberals in the country stand for.

Here's the thing about unions. Unions started out as a good idea. But over time, they have just become so corrupt, and bullshit, that unions of today stand for totally different values as the original worker's unions in the 1800's.
Unions weren't always full of bullshit.
