How to Exploit Mario for Political Purposes

Wait, so we fund a half a dozen wars (Excuse me, military actions) 700 military bases around the world, a welfare state both social and corporate, we push jobs over seas, we bail out business that would fail under capitalism but get to go on with the same inept management because of it, and we've let the federal government bloat like a fat pig and suddenly we're broke? That doesn't make any sense at all.

Well at least it's only the kids and grand kids that will be suffering immeasurably because of it. Oh and the elderly who paid into a system when they were young that was inevitable to collapse when they were older. At least when that days comes we will still be able to buy a gun and shoot ourselves in the head.

Damn, what started out as a sarcastic political rant has actually made me kind of depressed.

Any young people reading this now, do yourself a favor. Start planning your retirement like the government will fail you and you might be all right. Otherwise you are gambling on a system that is managed by about 700 schizophrenic politicians who can't even keep their dicks off the internet, let alone to themselves.

Here's the biggest problem for me. The Republicans are addicted to military spending and war. Especially the ones who've never set foot on the battlefield, and the Democrats will give the Republicans whatever they want to ensure their bleeding heart legislation that breeds more dependence that actual good deeds gets to stay around. Also I have come to the conclusion that the only way to fix this system is to get people to vote and think about politics again. They should also ditch the home team mentality that will cause them to vote for someone just because they have a (D) or (R) beside their name on the ballet rather than learn about the person and their actual views. And I used to be exactly the kind of person I'm talking about here. It wasn't until I started paying attention to politics and politicians that I learned that I was actually a left leaning Libertarian rather than a Democrat like I had always though.
