Subject: RE: BS: NON-Partisan political comments
I think it is the two party system that polarizes people. Like the Crips and the Bloods, Sunni and Shia. Catholics and Protestants, All ways at war.

Why should anyone have to belong to a party? Mainly because of the money. You can't get the money it takes to get elected unless you have party backing. Let's get rid of the money. Let's get rid of the parties.

It is just like the race factor. Why do we have to say Black man or White man? all that does is poke a stick in someones eye.

And the media is whipping it up all they can to make more money off of the conflict. People write books to capitalize on the conflict.

This is not to say the world can or should be a perfect place but we would be better off if we used the energy expended in arguing on other things to improve the world.
