I think he was making fun of jamer, which I assume was making fun of wallow, by voting, "I don't care, I don't make my own decisions" or something or other.
As far as the goverment goes, the only problem is, Americans are too afraid to do anything about it. Nowadays, we are afraid of our government because they can make people vanish as though they never existed. This, coupled with the selfish thought that everyone needs to only look out for themselves, and you have the weak willed, weak minded, and just plain weak American. If you look into the past, and you see that when we formed this nation, it was to break away from a government that tried to control us with fear. Everyone wants to talk about, "Oh, my fellow American blah blah blah..." yet, if they had the chance to save a whole city on the other side of the United States, or secure thier own wealth, they would secure their own wealth. To be an American in this day and age, seems to be less about your freedom, and more about your money.
Everyone wants to talk about what America needs, but once the solution is found, no one wants to lift a finger to do the solution. What do you guys think would have happened if we didn't win our independence? Do you think everyone would have just been able to go back to thier jobs as though nothing was wrong? No. They would have been put to death for treason. But they didn't care about their own well being, just as long as America still stood after their death. This generation of Americans doesn't understand patriotism. They don't understand why we have this freedom that we do, nor do they want to do anything to defend it. Don't get me wrong, I commend each and every soldier that has fought in any war. It does take a certain amount of care for your country to join the armed forces to defend it, even though the reasoning is complete bullshit. They have my utmost respect, because they actually could stand up for our governments' retardation, and I just couldn't possibly do it. Not knowing full well that someone in office knows we are over there for the wrong reasons, yet we stay over there.
Instead, Americans will bicker over the price of gas, and the taxes we must pay, and all the other shit that they think they have no control in.
Anyways, sorry for the rant...
