The
Bemused Citizen wrote a beautiful piece on the decline of our government
and the failure of those that brought us here. I completely agree that the
people who we have in office have become blinded by their greed for power and
money and this has brought our government to a state of “mockery and disdain”.
The political parties controlling our government no longer have the views of
the people in mind, but instead they busy themselves with winning petty
arguments and gaining money and publicity for the nest term’s campaign.
Though this piece of beautifully written
and I agree with the main premise, I do disagree with the ending statement
saying that “America will be great again.” Call me a pessimist but I believe that
each person entering our government can’t help but to become sidetracked and
lead astray by their personal wants and the pressure of their peers within the
same party. I think America has a long way to go before we are anywhere close
to being the nation that is “…a bastion of intelligence, a citadel of hop for
world economy…”
