Is this country in need of a revolution?

Well you are not alone in feeling a revolution needs to happen.  Many countries all over the world, including Canada which is where I am from keep hearing these politicians issuing statements such as "when we came to power".  They seem to forget who gave them power.  The whole political structure needs reviewing.  Through out the so called Democratic world, we have allowed a reversal of the way things are supposed to be.  We ask for protection and economic management, but instead get laws, restriction, and control.  Politicians seem to ignore written constitutions which BELONG TO THE PEOPLE.  They are supposed to uphold these terms and conditions.  We have allowed it to happen, and need to understand that politics will not change unless we make them change.  It's our car, and they are the chauffeurs.  We want a ride not to be told how to sit.  They will not change unless we change and that is by making our demands fully apparent.

I wouldn't say a revolution.  But I think the middle class, who make up the majority of the votes, are going to finally get sick of those in Washington D.C. and start a third party.  It is both democrats and republicans that just don't seem to get it.  We are watching them sell off our country to the highest bidder.  We watch gas prices increase while congress does nothing but wag their fingers at oil big wigs.  When it boils down to it, congress and the president (no matter who it is) won't pass laws that will hurt the company's that give them their campaign money. Until the middle class wakes up, smells the coffee and realizes that we need representatives in our government, it will only get worse.

Revolution? Hmmmmm, wishful thinking.\nI wish I knew the answer to this one. I think that our (UK) society has to take a giant evolutionary leap and realise that actually, the royals are not all that great and that their vast wealth could be redistributed to make better schools, hospitals, public transport.\nIs it going to happen? That's another question....

Well it is a war-ravaged country and it will take time to rebuild it.However if they play their cards well and good governments are elected and they rule the country with care and sincerity the country can be rebuild and can become prosperous once again.

Isn't that country in enough trouble already?!

Absolutely, but how do the American people go about restoring democracy, revolution?????

Without a doubt, revolution. Most people won't simply reform of their own accord whether in a group setting or as an individual. As long as their are two or more opposing sides I believe that there must first be an agreement of what is it that needs to be reformed. You cannot reach this agreement however if the two parties simply refuse to agree. Therefore the revolution comes first, and then reformation. My humble opinion.

So you say you want a revolution, don't let me stand in your way.\n\nHumans killing humans is sick. Leaders should work together to prevent war, and create peace.

Yes.  America, UK, and Australia need to get out of there and deal with their own domestic issues instead.

right now all the countries care about showing off their powers and not really thinking about what they definitely need to improve on. I'm originally from india and as u have probably heard that india's economy is improving dramatically. Well, if you ask me, it difinitely is improving army bases business but a majority of the poor is still in india.

What? When? Keep me in the loop as I like to hang around  the front lines, regardless of the type of revolution (as long as it's a REVOLUTION) :)

Let's NOT assume there's going to be a world government, get RID of that idea...other countries need to work a lot harder at solving their own problems instead of trying to vote themselves into the United States or whatever...

They (we) don't look or sound ready for a revolution; but I'm game.\n\nBut don't kid yourself: The right-wingers are more than ready. They have numbers and money and they're convinced they're the good guys. How do you beat that?

No ... How can someone force democracy on someone else? If it's forced, then is it really a democracy? If there is ever to be democracy or peace over there, then they will have to resolve it themselves.

It is a third world nation. The government is not even in charge. Get out more

at some point when all the jobs are gone, yes, currently no, as the powerful have all the resourses, and too many people beleive their b.s. so they follow blindly. Currently however people haven't wised up enough to unite and become a force to be reckoned with

Yes, knowing what we know now, this wasn't the solution.\nMuch more could have been achieved with less loss of lives and resources.\nThe real problem with Iraq is yet to emerge. This country is in complete disarray, there is nothing left. the moment the Americans leave, a civil war will break out, because there is no dominating or controlling force. In a normal revolution there is an organization, a plan, a people movement. Ideals, a bigger picture. But here?\nA better way would have been to work from the inside,to start up a movement, to feed them money, structure. To let that movement gain momentum, and so on. In the case of Iraq, maybe try to split up the country?
