Why do Americans support an elite class that controls everything in their life? What happened to freedom?

It is mainly because of public education. Middle class people actually believe that their child is getting a good education if they give them over to the government for over half of their waking hours. It used to be the norm for at least elementary school children to be educated at home by the parents.





Now parents give their children over to the unionized government school teachers who are minions of the very wealthy Democratic party. The teachers rarely teach students the true meaning, history, and context of the U.S. Constitution. Instead they fill the young people's heads with fairy tales of the evils of capitalism and the wonders of socialism. They don't teach them the real methods of scientific inquiry, but instead brainwash them with political propaganda about the myth of global warming and so on. Those who know the facts understand that most environmental alarmism is just another method of control by the aforementioned elite.Why do Americans support an elite class that controls everything in their life?

I don't have an answer for you because it makes no sense to me why the neediest among us vote for those who are buggering them at every opportunity. I also don't understand why church goers are more likely to support torture and vote republican, even though republicans are satan's minions and oppose everything Christ taught.





But I starred your question because I sincerely would like to get some insight into what people are thinking when they vote right wing.Why do Americans support an elite class that controls everything in their life? What happened to freedom?
Our framers had your question when they wrote this.





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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
We support freedom and those Americans that left there country and families to go fight For it, so we can sleep at night knowing our children won't be blown up by religious extremists. We support the politicians we elect to ensure our freedom and protect us from the socialist agenda of the Big Government. Why would anyone vote for those who want to take all our personal Freedom away? Unless you are one of those ';people'; who refuse to work and have your hand out for everything. (while conservative americans work there asses off to support our own families and those who sit home complaining about republicans). I worked all day today...I got some of my paycheck and the rest went to the girl down the street who does not work. I paid for her last abortion and food for her 3 kids that actually live in another state with her mom, but the welfare office doesn't know that. It's stupid and unfair. Wake up!
Because the elite class has convinced everyone that the government can take better care of you than you can. We are after all the entitlement society. good luck to you
Everyone is extremely arrogant and just wants to be on the correct side of the left-right paradigm. They don't realize that the government only takes freedom away.
Great question. Our freedoms are slowly eroding and our future generations will be paying for it.
Dont you have the Freedom to work hard, and strive to become ';Elite'; yourself?





Whats stopping you?
Freedom died when Obama won.
freedom was taken away by the great messiah
Liberals prefer to be taken care of by their rulers.
