The potential end of our two party system is a threat to everyone. Even though in many ways for years now big businesss money equally bribes both into inaction, what is happening now threatens our system of government. Even though for years now they have been like Tweedledee and Tweedledum out of Alice in Wonderland in many ways, the government has limped along: Sort of.
But now, even though the Tea party seems to be well meaning, they appear to be just so ruthless and impractical about doing anything combined with the demographics problem of: "There no longer are enough white Republicans of ANY stripe to elect another Republican President EVER again.
So, at this point it is everyone's problem. Now, gerrymandering at the level the Republicans have created is threatening and destabiliazing our government on many fronts and leading us towards a dictatorship rather than a representative democracy. And unfortunately I blame gerrymandering to the point where ONLY extreme tea party candidates that will destroy our democracy in some areas will be elected. So, the gerrymandered districts are beginning to tear our country's democracy apart.
Our whole system of government ONLY works with compromise. But with Extreme gerrymandered districts it tends to create situations now where ONLY a dictatorship can survive.
Some way forward needs to be created where the extremes of the Tea Party stops destroying our government. Do, Tea Party activists need to take a Civics class so they learn how Government actually works and doesn't work or will they be the end of our government which only works on a system of checks and balances and compromise for over 200 years?
Because it wouldn't matter whether it was a Republican Dictatorship or a Democratic Dictatorship, either one would create an ongoing Civil bloody war in the U.S. that might never end. This is something for all of us to think long and hard about preventing. Our ONLY good way forwards is to have a democracy that actually works for everyone rich and poor. And right now it is ONLY working for the rich. This has to change to create fairness. We had this same problem around the turn of the century in the early 1900s and this didn't change until the Great Depression and World War II to the affluence for everyone economy we had from the 1950s through the 1970s. But, by 1980 when Reagan came in only the Rich started prospering again. Now, we are at the extreme where there is a 7.3% drop in real income in the average U.S. family since 2000. This obviously has to change. Money cannot keep only going to the top 5% of the nation without eventually creating a bloody revolution here. Do people want a Guillotine type of French Revolution here or will we find another way like we did by creating Unions in the 1930s for the common man to benefit from the successes of America once again?
