What are politics?

     Politics....when the word politics come to mind we think of a group of sophisticated humans sitting around a large room politely discussing dilemmas with the country. What actually occurs in the Senate is a series of fights similar to those we all had in elementary school. Two or more people on opposite teams arguing over small menial problems going back and forth, constantly accusing each other of doing wrong and pointlessly belittling the other party. While they bicker like children the large problems of the country slowly decay destroying the once solid foundations we build this proud....once  proud nation upon.

     The two main parties, Democratic and Republican for all those rock dwellers, have absolutely opposite ideals for the United States. These two parties go back to the the first presidentry with George Washington. Although Democrats were more like Republicans and Republicans known as Federalists the same kind of arguing went on at the founding of our nation. The only difference is that back then we got SOME problems done, while today we can't even agree to disagree and all our ideas for the country get shoved back month after month.

     What is the cause of all this bickering? What is the cause of all this anger? Simple, the corruption rising from the depths of society. It has corrupted our own government over time changing it from an efficient and stable form of government to one that may even be worse than, dare i ever say it...  a monarchy or dictatorship. With nothing being done we are allowing our nation to fall into a state of disarray and chaos. While our leaders lodge themselves in estates larger then UCLA the slums of our nation are creeping closer, oh so closer. While visiting the sites of such corruption, ie: Compton, it can often be worse to run into a police officer then into a gang. The law itself is crumbling and our nations once strong body has been poisoned. The poison slowly spreading throughout our land causing chaos and strife, and when strife comes...so does change and not always for the better.
