priming the ecconomic pump with billionaire candidates money

As far as I'm concerned what you say about Republicans you can say the same about Democrats.  My personal opinion is that Greed has corrupted both parties.  In fact, I see them as one party with two heads.  Each head has only one eye in the center of it's forehead.  This one, two-headed Cyclopes has effectively blocked any other party from entering the field.  We have been misled to believe this gives us a more stable government.  Why, just look at Italy, we are told.  We certainly don't want that.  Well, Italy will have to sort out their own corruption issues.  But we here in the good old USA are being controlled by One Party.  While the Super First Class Citizens greedily grab hands full of money from our treasury, we are encouraged to square off over such important issues as whether Gays can marry, or if we can use stem cells for research, or if women should be allowed to be in charge of their own bodies. 
Our once proud nation is on its knees with the huge burden of debt on its shoulders.  Our once great public education system, the one that made us the mighty power that we became, is being desecrated.  Our cities are disgusting.  Our roads and bridges are unsafe to travel.  Our jobs are being stolen, along with our factories and shipped overseas.  Our money is being banked in off-shore banks. 
Tell me, what in this picture gives us the belief that we are coming out of the depression? 
But perhaps I overlooked one bright spot.  Today, August 25, 2010, I heard on the radio where some candidates in primary elections in Florida and Arizona spent as much as 30 million dollars.  This must be keeping TV, radio, newspapers and printers busy and happy.  Perhaps we could have elections every three months.  In this way the millionaire and billionaire candidates could pump their personal fortunes back into circulation.
