What is the USA coming to?

Are we a Capitalist nation when we we're supposed to be a democracy? We are a country about freedom, understanding, and the pursuit of happyness... but now half of us don't have jobs, many are being repo-ed for various things, and the government is putting crooks in positions to deal with this crap. Is anyone gonna stand up and do something about it?? Maybe I will. Voting for the govornor is coming up... ima try to be responsible and pick the very best candidate to give the "big man" a kick in the ass!!
