USA is no longer a democracy as we know it. Big corps can dictate what they want, rich, white men win the elections based on who's more patriotic or not, etc.
I would say we are no longer a Representative Republic, that is not true either we are but its going to the way side because of the socialistic idea's and laws being pumped into the system. Interesting how we see the same problem but different causes. Ever wonder why we do that?

I would say that is big Government trying to control our lives and it was stopped.

That is a problem? We are not so much different from that time period even if we have much better toys now! The Constitution was designed to regulate Government much like you want to regulate big cooperation's. Both can get too big and too powerful.

Without some sort of religion (matters not the type) politics gets out of hand.
