Why would any reasonable adult American believe what our government is telling us about the economy, jobs, the stimulus or any other issue they are involved in today. Anyone who thinks they can run banks, auto companies, energy problems or health care needs some psychological help. Just look at what they are already running and truthfully answer if they are being run efficiently or cost effectively. The post office? That’s a laugh, we continue to pay more and more for less service. Medicare? They are so far in debt that they will probably never see black again. Is the service good? Do you get the care that you need? The biggest laugh of all is Social Security. A good idea initially, maybe, but it made people depend on the government. If you are in your 30’s or 40’s you will probably never see a penny of what you have put in during your working years. These funds were supposed to be put into a fund and not touched. Did that happen? Another laugh, they were spent in a blink of an eye without our approval or knowledge.
We do need government for some regulations and controls. We do not need them to take over our lives and spend money without thinking of the consequences. This country was built on the ideals of freedom and capitalism. The government does not owe us a living. We control our own destinies. Working hard, getting an education and being true to yourself are virtues that we need to believe and live.
Running for an office and lying while doing it is not only dishonest but criminal. It doesn’t matter what office or if you are a democrat or a republican, it is wrong. For anyone elected president and to repeatedly break his word is inexcusable. When Obama was running he repeatedly said NO taxes on anyone making $250,000 or less. After his election it kept going down and ended at about $160,000. Now with the cap and trade bill everyone will be paying lots of taxes. Don’t be fooled, it is a TAX.
I only hope enough people wake up and realize what is going on in the government to save us all. I can only plead with all my heart not to let this happen to the greatest country in the world.
