Everyone
is talking about the “fiscal cliff”. Did this just sneak up on us?
Our
government is over 15 Trillion Dollars in debt. We are adding to that debt with
over 1 Trillion a year. Then Congress decides to spend another 40 Billion
Dollars a month on bad mortgages. We have unfunded liabilities in Social
Security, Welfare, and other social programs.
Unemployment
is at almost 8%. People are losing their homes, their jobs, and their hope.
Now
everyone is noticing that we are approaching a “fiscal cliff”. What a surprise!
Just last Friday, the US Department of Education released new data on student loan defaults. Within a handful of years, US taxpayers will be on the hook for over $100 billion in student loan defaults.
When we
needed strong leadership, the Republicans gave us Mitt Romney and the Democrats
gave us Obama. Then, the people voted for the lesser of 2 evils. If we continue
to vote for only the 2 major party candidates, we will continue to have the
lesser of 2 evils governing us.
Register
for other parties. Send a message that you have had enough. You can still vote
for any candidate.
