We The Peeps

Computer Geek / Network & Systems Administrator. I have been in computers my whole life and have dabbled in different programs and some web design. I like movies, music, dinners, cooking, hanging with friends, although I am more of a homebody. I like to debate my views with other people in politics, religion, equality, health care reform, and several other topics. I believe in equality for all, and not just some. We have the freedom of religion and the freedom from religion. No religion should dictate our laws, nor should we ever write any discrimination into the constitution. I also believe that just because the majority voted for something, doesn't mean it is the best thing for this country. Americans need to quit selling out their fellow man and demand that NAFTA be fixed now, or just needs to go away, period. America needs to take care of itself before its to late. We need health care reform now. We should never leave health & human services in the hands of the free market. We should never allow anyone to profit off the suffering of others.

Just 233 years ago, a few men gathered to proclaim their independence from a tyranny that controlled the 13 colonies with an iron fist.  These men and women risked their life to gain their freedom, their liberty, and their independence.

For the next 100 years the children of these men and women had a drive that took these small 13 colonies and made them into the greatest nation to ever exist in known history.  We seen a drive within the people to not just better themselves but strive to better all mankind.  When a home was needed, the community united and helped those individuals build that home, today, we just let him lose it to the bank.

Where has this drive gone?  Where is our pride in our country and our fellow man?

If those men and women had any of the issues we faced today, they would of united and fought for the fairness of every American, and not just some.

Let me ask each and every one of you a few questions:

What is the difference between the corporate rule we see today and the British rule they seen then?

Would these people that fought to give us the independence, freedom, and liberty we all enjoy today or would they accept the abuses of the free market today?
