Recipients of taxpayer money, including government employees who cannot be fired and have a great pension plan that is bankrupting the country, and welfare recipients who periodically break out in mob violence, are the majority voting bloc of the Democratic party.
The Republicans are no better with business monopolies buying votes.
We need to support the largest third party in each state as is encouraged by the Had Enough Voter Revolt.

A simple explanation of what is happening to our economy.
Credit is money that's been borrowed. In a healthy economy (one with sound money, like gold), credit is limited to savings. That only makes sense, doesn't it? How could you borrow something that someone else hasn't already put aside for the purpose of lending?
Of course… saving is hard. Most people would prefer to have the benefits of credit without the effort of saving. Thus, we have modern economics, which is based on a simple lie: That you can safely expand credit in excess of savings.
But, of course, you cannot create wealth from a printing press. Doing so causes price inflation, asset inflation, a credit collapse – or a mix of all three. Everyone knows this. And yet it seems the entire global political class remains dedicated to pretending otherwise.
When credit is expanded far enough in excess of savings, you get a collapse.
