I originally wrote a long rant, but I know how you guys hate my long
posts so I moved it to my blog (see my sig file for the link) and
limited my comments below.
With a blog, there is no expectation that one has done their
research or that a post is well thought out and all the t's are crossed
and the i's are dotted.  I don't have to be politically correct or watch
what I say.  It will be more a 'first amendment' exercise and less a
'polite company' exercise.

I'm fed up.  FED UP with the status quo.  I know a lot of people are as
well.  I don't know who to be angry with, who to complain to, or what
good any action in isolation will do.
<snip long rant>
… Already long ago, from when we sold our vote to no man, the People
have abdicated our duties; for the People who once upon a time handed
out military command, high civil office, legions — everything, now
restrains itself and anxiously hopes for just two things: bread and
circuses    (Juvenal, Satire 10.77–81)  Roman poet, almost 2000 years
ago, still relevant today.
