I would like to see our Government address the Social Security and Medicare costs, which are the beginning of the budget cutting experience. Presently we are hearing everything BUT that from our President and the Democratic Party.
Some in the media agree. Some simply jump on the "Flavor of the Day" bandwagon, and with a microphone in every "What's in it for Me" and "Single Issue" person's..hands it is difficult to stay focused on this "elephant in the house"...Federal Spending. "Our children will be saddled with this cost" are not empty words. Interest on what Uncle Sam owes was 350 billion dollars in 2012. That is 50 billion dollars more than twice the US Military's annual payroll.
We are on a short road to insolvency. Uncle Sam owes about $52000 for ever man, woman and child in this country. It would be nice if we could continue to borrow our way out of the mess we are in but the simple truth is that we cannot. Soon we will face rising interest rates and inflation. This will be beyond the control of the Government.
Since the President seems satisfied with keeping the fires of perennial social issues burning and ignoring our financial straits, it is even more important to convey our Middle Class concerns to our congressmen and women. It will still work. Then system is designed that way. Please don't forget that. The internet and media ugliness will continue and will get worse under this leadership. I am afraid that is what he is all about...organizing liberal splinter groups that are by nature disunited, being that they are largely "single issue" people.
We are broke, but not broken. Please write to your Congressional Representatives and let them know how you feel. Let's take back our government. Let's do some smart things together. Let's give them encouragement so they will be brave enough to fight for America.
