Anyone else starting to feel worn down and disgusted by the behavior of your government? I don't see a lot of change, just a lot of dissection of how bad it is. If the mechanism to change the problem is broken, how do you change the problem?

What I find worst of all, is that our governments are using our tax dollars to negotiate and write this stuff behind our backs in order to shaft us, the people.
Its almost Terry Pratcher'esque. I'm seriously depressed about how shit our system is.

I emigrated. I suggest all others of like minds do the same. Let the US suffer brain drain for a change (unintentional rhyming ftw!)
Where did you move? Also, is there any guarantee that other countries won't create similar laws/agreements etc in future (may be not today, but what about tomorrow)?
Ireland, which obviously tends to follow along with whatever the US wants, but I like to think at least my taxes aren't _directly_ supporting so many of the things I find morally reprehensible.

And they gave me a visa, so there's that.
