Wouldn't It Be Nice

advertisement

Wouldn't it be nice to wake every morning knowing that the honorable people in Washington, DC were working to make this the best country for you and me?

Knowing they are working in harmony, you know bi-partisan effort. Shunning the efforts by the lobbyist. Refusing to take bribes of any sort.

Doing the peoples work---how noble! Making sure the conditions are right for industry, we wouldn't want big business to leave our shores. Why where would Americans work to support their families? No, they would lower taxes, rid the country of regressive laws and just get out of the way.

And wouldn't it be nice to know that when we went to sleep at night the good folks in Washington, DC worked so hard that they had an energy plan? We could heat and cool our homes, drive to and from work and maybe a ride out into the country side. All without worrying about the cost.

Knowing that we had a choice as to whether we continue in the social security program, or opt into a self directed security account. Choice is good right? That's what it means to live in America,right? Of course, it goes without saying.

And you know they would make health saving plans available, oh man, what a country!

And as we dream at night we would dream as did Martin Luther King Jr. We would live as one America, with many religions. None being discriminated against. It's freedom of religion, not from religion.

Oh these great protectors of America, think only of we the people, isn't it great?

We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

That's all they are charged with, that's all they have to do. As a civic duty, one term and on their way they go. Thank you so much for preserving America. We appreciate your service.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.
