Give true representation back to the people. Make government responsible to the people not corporate, lobbyist, media and so on interests.

It's only empty if you are closed minded to change and wanting a government truly representative and working for the people.

It's not just taxes, it's freedoms they are taking away from us. It's them telling us to make sacrifices but they won't they increase their spending, they give the nation to special interests, extremists and corporations to run and the average citizen is beaten down into submission because if he speaks out people belittle him, call him a kook, don't listen even if it makes sense because the government has it's own agenda and it doesn't include him except to pay for that agenda.

Power to the people is for those that have no voice to stand up and demand accountability in government. To force government to listen to their voices again and not the extremists or the lobbyists or those who have agendas not in the best interest of the whole, not just the select.
