112. Will you stop with this blather about Democracy
A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine. -Thomas Jefferson



This isn't about democracy, its about individual rights of people to own their own homes and places of business without having their property stolen out from under them by the government acting as proxy for corporate interests.

How about joining a political party thats more in line with your views, I suggest this one: http://www.cpusa.org/
