I make this statement as I see the inactivity from American's on an important issue like the debt crisis. For some reason, immigration issues move Latin’s into the streets! Gay issues lead us to parades and even some losing their lives in the early years or even today. But when it comes to our financial future, it's as if we just sleep through it, it will go away.
People should realize that all China has to do is call in its chips and they own us. Would this happen, probably not but this country no longer leads the world in many ways! We are about to lose one of the last leadership standing we have in the world! Financial responsibility!
We all agree that we need to control spending. But making the rich, richer isn't working (George Bush proved that), and just giving money away to the poor isn't working either (Clinton proved that). We need balance.
Somehow Washington has lost common sense and the need for balance. The Republicans don't want to touch the rich though they admit they should pay more. The Democrats don't want to hurt the poor that just barely survive.
Then we have those cheating the system that somehow never gets addressed. Like millions in Florida on food stamps and working under the table making 75-100k a year. I am a strong believer if you get government assistance you should do something for what we get. I have traveled to China and you see old people sweeping the streets. Well time to see what we can do here. I being on disability can even do something at times.
We all have the responsibility to be proud to be American's and stop thinking the government owes us something! Yes we contributed to our SS or SSI or DSSI, but we can all do a little something to help out the situation.
Our leaders could take a pay cut for a year or two. Most are millionaires anyway! And we American's need to start wondering why someone would spend 80-100 Million for a job that pays 200k a year!
Wake up American's or someday someone will wake you up and it may not be an American!
