What Role Should The U.S. Play In World Defense?
... of course,
can be debated by the government, who has probably spent much more then
they want us to know. This fact alone is scary, since only last year, the
Defense Department, under the Freedom of Information Act was forced to tell
the American people how much money it spent on the protection of our
country since last year alone. The amount? A whopping $4 billion dollars.

... the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the
Government..." The First Amendment was drafted by federalist Madison mainly

Immigration Should Be Restricted
... geometrically, as the number of open work positions increases merely arithmetically; therefore contributing to our nations national debt, tax, and unemployment rates. The rates at which immigrants are willing to work at further burden the citizen’s hope of finding a "good paying job". Business and industry owners do not care who they have working for them, as long as they hustle. So why, one may wonder would anyone hire an American worker at a higher rate, when an immigrant will do the same work for less pay?

... Constitution' 1867, that Parliamentary Government had been superseded by Cabinet Goverment - that the theoretical sovereignty of Parliament had been delegated to the Executive for all practical purposes. The powers of the Government, and its cohesion under the convention of Collective Responsibility, ensured that the Government could maintain a united front in the face of parliamentary opposition. Within such a system, the PM could be described as 'primus inter pares' - first amongst equals - because, although he was the leading memberof the Government and its chief spokesman, it was the Cabinet rather than the PM that dominated the decision-making process.
