Third parties and no parties
The current two-party system is incredibly corrupt and obsolete in a lot of ways, as well as harmful to how things are done in this country. Now that I write that, I'm not sure how, but the conclusion is still valid. It's a failing way to look at and understand world around us, plus the two parties currently in both houses of Congress have a track record of incompetence, petty power playing, and utterly, utterly stupid and often illegal things, such as taking bribes, becoming more obsessed with money and campaigns than actual work, spending taxpayer money on "extreme adventures", shutting down the whole federal government over a health care insurance act, being often deliberately scientifically illiterate and being placed on the science and technology committees, I could go on. But instead, I'm calling on everyone for a fresh slate, or, something. To start your own third parties, or better yet, not even giving to the party system and declare yourself a candidate witohut any affiliation except to solving many problems of today and tomorrow. I've probably said this before, but usually I'm indifferent to politics, but with the state of the world as it is, I would rather those in power and making the globe-affecting decisions not be there.
