#2 So, with nearly unanimous opposition to such an idea, how is it that our politicians continue to think that this should happen? Their "we know better than you" attitude needs to be rewarded at the voting booth. Furthermore, if the real reason for this stance is: Democrats wanting more voters and: Replublicans wanting more cheap labor, then the entire system has gone off of its rails as our leadership now serves their own ends while completely disrgarding the electorate's wishes. In reality, either scenario is just plain evil.

#3 Until they take a bloodbath at the polls over an issue like this, I think the incumbents will continue to believe they know better in perpetuity.

#4 Zen,

You forgot that the coincidence between your take on Repubs & Dems is that they both requirer more Fed power.

What's your guess for the percent for lobbyists?
90% - 10% ??

#5 What's your guess for the percent for lobbyists?

Lobbyists currently represent one of the most corrupting external forces in our government today. If a company seeks to have favorable legislation passed upon its behalf, they should explain why to their workers and encourage them to help persuade the local community regarding this. Our secret ballot makes sure no reprisals are possible and if workers honestly view the company's aims to be in alignment with theirs, they will rally to the cause.

The current model whereby influence and access are bought and sold amounts to nothing but legalized corruption. We now have a government riddled with incumbent career politicians who are more dedicated to raising re-election funds than doing their actual jobs.

From the Oval Office on down, these sort of campaign fund-raising tactics have resulted in consistent conflicts of interest and must no longer be tolerated. We have already seen America's industrial might gutted. Confronted with the export of vital technologies that our nation's very defense and security rely upon, there had better be some serious changes made if we expect to win the next big war.

#6 I don't oppose illegals getting driver's licenses. What I oppose is the fact that the said document is used as a form of identification and most of us don't know who the fuck the illegal is. Hence the term illegal. If you don't have verifiable documentation from where you are from so we know who the fuck you are, you don't get one. Ride the bus or something. That is what it is there for. They could be Hugo Chavez for all we fucking know coming in to get money for his bankrupt country. I am sick and tired of every rout being tried to make the illegals not illegal in a don't ask, don't tell sort of way so they can get legal. You sneak in without a visa, you are a fucking illegal. End. Of. Fucking. Story. No rights for you, since you are not a citizen. No bennies. No perks. No job. Please fuck off and return from the 3rd world from whence you came lest we throw your ass back.
