I wonder as I watch the news whether or not we are all just asleep or in a daze of some sort. More troops?? More war??? Spending money on the war machine but saying we can’t afford to provide each American with the same health care that each tax payer provides for all elected officials!
We’ve had eight years of lies and war, recession, torture, more lies, corruption, greed, and still we haven’t had enough of it. I thought we had started waking up when we voted for change and elected Obama. Perhaps I was wrong, we were not really ready for change, we just thought we could have someone else change things on our behalf without our doing much more than voting.
Tax payers money given to big business only to have them gobble it down for trips and trash cans didn’t wake us up either. We watch Sarah Palin and the tea partiers paid for with insurance company money and listen to far right agenda rather than thinking for ourselves. It’s more about being entertained than thinking for most people. We don’t listen for the truth or speak out about the lies. We are more concerned about Tiger Woods personal mess than with the homeless, sick, out of work, no health care, don’t know what to do next portion of our nation.. (which by the way is growing every day).. than we are about the truth.
Just recently I had the wife of a doctor point out that Obama was ruining her family. When I asked for more details she told how her husbands doctor office had just received notice that payment were going to be cut by one-third. I asked who was cutting the payments? ???? She finally stated the notice had come from the insurance company. Because she only listens to FOX… news.. she just assumed that the government was behind it.
I recently heard a Republican senator state that now we needed to put health care reform on the back burner and focus on what was most important.. war and money. !!!!! Wow, talk about giving yourself and your party’s agenda away…. yet hardly anyone talked about that.. It didn’t register with most people what he was saying.
The conservatives want to pass laws that force morals on every American.. mercy because of their influence Uganda now has the death penalty for homosexuals..
The liberals want to hand it over to the government and have them “fix it all” for the rest of us.
Neither of these will work folks. This is OUR country. We are America! Our government was not created to do for us as individuals or as a group what we will not do for ourselves.
This government, this nation does not correctly represent me. There is too much emphasis on greed, war, fear.. to represent me.
I want to ask you.. each of you.. to take a few moments and find out who you are doing business with. What do they stand for. Are they importing goods from China or some other country where the workers make very little and work in horrid conditions.. then the price is jacked up many, many times over what it’s worth to sale to Americans?
Here in Alabama over 80% of all those insured are with Blue Cross Blue Shield. This is a conservative state… can you guess where most of the money comes from during election time to get people elected? Bet you can.. and follow the dot.. why don’t these folks want reform? Because those with the money don’t want them to be for reform. It’s about GREED!
There is more than enough for everyone. Abundance doesn’t have to be locked up in a vault. You don’t have to step on everyone else to be successful.
What we need in the nation.. this mighty.. wonderful nation is a change of consciousness. Each of us needs to get informed. Do business with those who promote the well-being of ALL not just a few.
Together we have created this nation and this world. Only together can and will we change it. Not our President, but we, one person joining with another, will bring about change.
