OpenGov - Open Government Brainstorm

You people are out of control. I hope this is a joke.

You clearly don't know what communism is, or democracy for that matter.

All hail our elitist leader that we "elected" to lead our people...

Totally disagree with you. I voted for Obama, own a house, pay up the rear in taxes, & have no problem blaming myself for things that go wrong in my life.

If a person is on gov't assistance for a certain period of time they should lose the right to vote until they have been off assistance for a specified amount of time otherwise it is no different than buying votes. This is known as conflict of interest!!! If they get a regular check every month and don't have to work for it then who do you think they will vote for. PAYING FOR VOTES!!

I agree with previous comment but also say voters should be TESTED as to their at least basic knowledge of what the representatives they vote for stand for or the laws they vote for are about, with a non-partisan test required to prove eligibility to vote.

This is the comment I agree with:
