I actually agree with this except the "we suck" part.
ONe of the biggest factors tearing our country apart is our growing population. Over time, as our population has grown and our citizens feel less and less significant, we've gotten cynical and scared.
After all, who are we to blame? Who can truly manage something as big as our federal gov't? The honest answer is "no one can"...at least not effectively and honestly.
And the more our population grows, the worse it will get. Sometimes I wonder if all would be better if each state managed their own gov't from top to bottom and we eliminated the federal gov't except for the the absolute neccessities.
