As the temperature starts to approach 100 degrees in NYC and our economy is supposed to be as hot as the weather, I look at the Bloomberg website and see all of this positive economic news (just kidding): - US Stocks decline among bads reports
- Banks to be downgraded
- More Americans forecast to file as jobless
The list goes on and I think, where are the leaders of both parties. Well they are arguing about Eric Holder and some documents. I dont diminish the importance of truth in government and this issue, but as you read this blog, a theme will emerge. People run the government like nothing else in their lives. The overspend, waste time and refuse to move forward.
This country is essentially going bankrupt and our leaders can't honesty discuss issues like our debt or entitlements going bankrupt. We scare senior citizens about cutting benefits or we say raising taxes are bad. BOTH are bad, but what are our choices here? A balanced approach to bring back fiscal sanity to our nation is needed.
Join me in this discussion over the coming months and maybe we can start making these people in Washington realize that they work for us and we want something different on both side of the aisle. We want term limits for these people so they have incentives to solve problems and not just to get reelected!
Have some passion America and let's move this country forward....
