We all have opportunity's to make it in this country granted some may be better than others but its still their for everyone. Also before any one accuses me of being rich or being a religious zelot neither of those or true I just think things in this country have gotten out of hand as far as taxes and hand outs are concerned.

I'd like to introduce you to my little friend, mister comma: ,
Hopefully at some point in the not-so-distant future, you'll come to know and love that little guy.
As to the content of your post (what can be decyphered), while the United States is not a "true" democracy as far as the original Greek method of government, it is still a representative democracy, and falls within the category of governments that are referred to as democracies. I'm not sure why you brought it up, since it's not relevant to any of the other statements you make, but I felt a need to clarify that point for you.
