Interesting. We did fight a war over those a long time ago... There was something in it about taxation without representation... and something about how when a government becomes overbearing somesuch...

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Have you ever paid any attention to history?

Are you claiming that you are not represented politically?

some are, some aren't. I know I get pretty pissed off when some moron who has no clue about me or my lifestyle uses Democrat talking points to call me a 'free rider' to bolster his retarded belief that I need to maintain health insurance.

Have you ever seen anybody elected that shares my political views?

Why not run for office yourself, since apparently nobody in the nation's pool of successful politicians reflects your unique values?
