Democracy?
by September 29, 2004 1:44 AM PDT
Legislation available to the highest bidder, and because of
years of gerrymandering only 30 out of 435 districts can
change hands in the November election; when is democracy
going to be brought to the USA?

It is not a democracy

This is not a democracy. We have some Democratic ideals the country was founded on, but they failed to gain support. I'm talking about support from those who founded this country, wrote it's constitution and created the first of our history. This country is a Republic form of government.

Not only are you limited to see 30 seats up for grabs, the choice is further limited to mostly two parties. Of the two parties, the party members themselves select who will run for a given seat based on electibility factors and not of representation of those he or she supposes to represent.
Free Speech At Risk!

The Induce Act seeks to jeapordize free speech as we know it today. You can be found guilty of copyright violations if through your actions, induce another to commit a crime. This is one of the most wholy unconstitutional pieces of legislation to hit our law makers ina great many years.
