From what I have read on Twitter and Facebook, not many are supporting the attitudes of the Republican Party. Ladies and Gentlemen of the United States of America...this is not good at all for our country. Yes the Senate killed Boehner's Debt Bill, but there is a more more going on than this one Bill. The Republican Party says we need less government. In the 21st Century we need all the government regulations if not more.
Government regulations is not an evil thing. A lot of the wild life regulations have saved countless species from being extinct. Pollution regulations have saved our health, our planet, and every life on our planet. No matter how you look at it, government regulations have provided more freedoms than you may think. So what is the true issues that America faces?
Right now, the biggest one is JOBS!! Why do we not have jobs in the country as we did prior to 1992? When we started to trade with other countries, some big businesses traded American jobs so they do not have to live by the laws everyone in America has to go by. Either we all live under the Law of the Land or no one does. There is no such thing as a few that can be exempt and have everyone live free. That is why we are hurting with all the free trade agreements around the globe.
No matter what plan Congress has for us to fix the economy, it will never work. It is amazing to me that post-secondary school teach the importance of teamwork and our government and some big wig corporations do not live by it. No wonder children/teenagers have a hard time learning this concept. It is not necessary their fault by the GIGO (Garbage In Garbage Out) aspect of these bad eggs.
What will turn this country around is the younger generations must vote in all the elections! If they want a future after working hard in college or some other post-secondary school, then they have to weed out the old farts and put in public servants that will work for them. We also need not to rely on public servants, but learn to do things for ourselves. That is why this country is so great. We have the right to be anything we want to be if we are willing to work hard for it.
This does not mean we need less government. Regulations is the means of protecting certain aspects of our lives, so we can continue with our lives. When our Founding Fathers designed the Constitution of the United States of America, it was over 200 years ago. The times have changed and so has our country. How our government does their jobs must be done based on the times in which we live.
Spite the years that have gone by since September 17, 1787, those large words still shows, "WE THE PEOPLE." Let me ask you this, "Are the people today being truly represented by our government?" It is obviously clear, NO THEY ARE NOT!! The next logical question that should be addressed is WHY NOT!!!
That will take another blog post to challenge. Right now this post is talking about the New York Times Article, "Senate Quickly Kills Boehner Debt Bill." We might can sigh in relieve that this Bill has been squashed, but the problems are still alive. Time will not stand still for Congress to act as they should.
