The broken system we now operate in works to the Republican Party’s advantage. As lobbyists and corporate interests gain more power— Washington becomes more remote to our citizens, and a more remote central government becomes more despised by the people.

“For Jefferson, the more remote government became and the more dependent the citizen became on elected representatives, the less republican the government and the greater the danger of corruption, narrow self-interest, and the erosion of democratic rights” according to Hart.

Jefferson was right.

The answer to corruption and narrow self-interest— anathema to a republican ideal of the common good— is not to dismantle the government and let the marketplace solve our problems. The answer is to empower the rightful owners of our government, the people, to take it back.

Better go buy some guns while you're still able.

Thanks to the Republicans being in charge your gun rights are pretty damn safe. It's the Democrats you have to worry about when it comes to gun control and eroding your 2nd ammendment rights.:rolleyes:
