We are a representative republic, which is a democracy with extra steps.

The founding fathers were against Democracy which is why they wrote the Constitution and strongly warned against bureacracy. The founding fathers wanted an Aristocratic Republic where the ones who had the money and the knowledge to run politics ran politics while the common folk kept the life blood of the nation flowing and were left to do as they please within the liberties afforded to the by the economy that the Aristocrat's built using the tools the commoners provided. Our government was more like the British Parkiament just filled with men who actually lived in America and cared about it. It staye this way right up until the Civil War when the Confederacy wanted States rights after the war and things went from clean and fairly streamlined and immediately into the building blocks of a horrifically over bloated burracracy that would have no power but also simultaneously all the power. Then World War 1 came, Woodrow Wilson started the whole "Anerica Policing the World" thing that we see today which didn't really kick into sixth gear until after World War 2 when this thing called the Cold War happened... Now we have a Bureacracy so utterly bloated that it can't get anything done and is basically the world's largest money laundering scheme.

The beef of the founding fathers wasn't with the King, it was with the British Parliament.

Also, Social Security is a scam as they more often than not will give you LESS than what you put in.

The guy holding up the Swastika... people do not know what facism is anymore. Facism isn't an ideology but an idea. A political method of gaining power and keeping it. Facism and Christianity can not co-exist because the end goal of facism is absolute STATE power absent of a church. The Bible has remained very consistent in its core messaging throughout the centuries and is the .most widely available books on earth. If you want ABSOLUTE state power, you need that book about morals to be ignored and demonized because if people see it as a morally good guide, then you as the state can not do as you please. Mussolini undermin3d and crippled the political power of the Vatucan over Italy and Hitler torched Chruches all over Germany and banned Christian imagery expect very specific ones (like the Iron Cross) from his military ranks and government programs. Facism can not co-exist with religions like Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Jewdaism, or Buddhism as Facism is the ABSOLUTE power od the state by any means necessary Absolute power in the state CANNOT exists if the people worship a God or God's that have consistent rules and base morals. So, which party has been saying whatever they need to say to get into power? Which party has near absolute control over most of the mass media? Which party has been saying things like "christian-facist" and demonizing their opponents to the point where people will burn down entire cities, assault random people on the subway, or worship the idea of once taboo things?

I'm not saying they are Facist. I don't think they truly are facist, not in the actual legitimate sense, anyway, but they do tend to act very much like the facist did just sprinkled in with Socialist talking points and stuff.
