With G.O.P. Unity at Risk, Boehner Tries Tougher Style

It is hard to know who to trust in our federal government these days, but I have to admit, the Republican Party is going all out to be not for the average Americans.  Yes we voted for both parties in our government, but wow!!  Come ON!

Boehner trying a tighter style?   What does that mean?  It does not sound like he care for the average American.  We voted for these politicians for a damn good reason.  It seems to be that the Republicans are for the corporations that want to continue to take jobs from Americans to other countries.

Last I looked, the Constitution states of big letters, "WE THE PEOPLE."  The last time I looked in the mirror, I looked like a person.  I am an American, so when are the politicians going to work for me?  I worked hard at Lanier Technical College between 1998 - 2006 in the computer field.  Now I am back in school at Gainesville State College in Gainesville, Georgia under an English Major.

As so many, I have worked hard in my life.  I want to work for my life.  I do not want to take from the government and sit at home all day.  The only money I take from the government is from a Pell Grant.  That allows me to go to College.


There are many that have had a career job 14 years or more.  Due to trading a number of countries around the world, most career jobs are overseas.  Here is a secret.  I live in the United States of America.  These corporations that have moved to these other countries came from the same country.  Either they need to get their sorry selves back or leave for good.

We can create more businesses that will take Americans as their employees.  No matter what these politicians finally decide, nothing is going forward until Americans can work!  It takes Americans to pay taxes.  It takes Americans to get a steady income to pay these taxes.  When we have to work at Wal-Mart to help provide for the simple necessities, it does not pay hardly what we can get in a career job.

Shocker everyone!  Students do not go to any form of post-secondary schools to work for minimum wage.  We spend a lot of money that far reaches the tuition and books.  The hard work to learn what is required takes a lot of time from us students.  As Americans, we should be getting jobs we are training for.

What is more frustrating about a part-time jobs it is harder to get them.  Why?  The Mexicans that have been screwed due to NAFTA, they have to come to the USA to find work.  Our federal government needs to stop screwing other countries and us as well.  Before NAFTA, America was prospering.

In 1992 we had a surplus of $5.4 billion dollars.  After NAFTA was implemented, we collected a deficit of $40 billion dollars in 2002.  In January 2011 that deficit went up to $1.5 trillion.  Who was in charge of Congress between those two years when we had this fast growing deficit?  You guest it.  The same ones that are wanting to make it worse for every American, the Republican Party.

But do not blame them fully.  How did they get in office to begin with?  The ones that voted for them.  Now it is up to us to vote them out come November 2011.  The question might be, will the Democrats be any better?
