Can’t you hear them laughing? Throw out our bipartisan duopoly bums!

By John Sykes

The graph below is one of the more blatant illustrations of what our bipartisan duopoly has done to our national debt. It took two to tango. And still does …

The two parties stop all meaningful structural change by calling up the horrible vision of the other party taking office. Together, consciously, while laughing at us, they prevent change by insisting that first we must throw the other bums out and then we can get down to real business.

Unfortunately, that business is simply the protection of the sinecures of these parasites of both the GOP and the Democrats who simply play off our fears of the other bums. Then they go on to their bipartisan lairs and jointly plan the next crisis.

We need change now! Without term limits and single subject bills, We the People don’t stand a chance of throwing out not just the other bums but all the bums!
