A general concensus for democracy, that the general population is willing to take the risks involved, accept responsibility for te government gtey create, and simultaneously elect like trhinking leaders. and third and most inportant, an intelligent population, that can read, write, do everyday math, and understand all the above. Given the last election, and the kind of people we elcted, one has to wonder if maybe we arent suited for a democracy anymore. Well, democrtacy depends on 3 things;

In other words, their "learning curve" flatlines when it comes to understanding the basics of freedoms and responsibilities.

But your right Mr. Carlos, theres a definate chip on Obama's shoulder for the sucessfull, hard work working people, who would rather solve there own problems rather than let him (the government) do it for them.

That's why he has toadies like Geithner and Napolitano, so he can throw them under the bus to show us common folk how much in tune with us he is, and how concerned he is with our plights. I doubt if he'll ever be concerned enough to try to let people who work hard for their paychecks keep them, instead of redistributing them to "po' folk" whose lot in life is to be victims.
