Lets forget the package what have they done for you?

Yes, I have to ask you why you are so thrilled, excited, happy and hopeful that these candidates and get this, these same Senators, Representatives and leaders are going to make the changes you profess? Frankly, in simple terms and based on their deeds I do not see how any logical person can arrive at that opinion or conclusion but I suspect many have?

So perhaps if you have can you and you don’t have to reveal who you are, tell the rest of us who don't understand why you vote for them? Yes, Lets forget the package, what have they done for you?

However, I will qualify the question. If you care to, for the benefit of other readers, please tell us what your economic status is? Lets say over $60,000 a year in income, retired, invested, have  a retirement plan and health care. Perhaps you are unemployed, going to school, a single parent and you make less then $40,000 combined income as a family or single parent. If you are single and making less then $20,000 a year? Perhaps you are a student and we are even more interested in what you have to say. Why, its your future? Now speaking to Americans here, tell us why you have so much hope in those who have placed in my opinion your future in doubt.

We would like to limit it to substance not the Easter Bunny type comments like "he seems like" or "I like how he talks", "its about time" or making a statement becuase of race, gender or patriotism. No just on what have they done? Your choice to make. Yet it would be nice to know why you really think this will change things for you and yours? Like what bill, act or deed was done that improved your circumstances or life? What real, not assumed experiences do you have to share that tell us why you feel you must vote for these politicians? What have they have done or not done that you are upset about?

Now certainly if your wealth has increased it is only fair to know just what economic class you are in. Why, well I venture to say there are not many average Americans who have done well with this administration. So if you like them we will know why you have that opinion. Nothing wrong with that. It is just what we have been talking to these matters these past months and many have not seen why people actually believe them. Also, if you consider yourself a minority person and getting government medical, social, education please tell us? If it is simply because you have no real chocies and these are what we have and you are picking the best of the worst, that will do as well.

As I say no one has to leave a name or contact but it will tell many who read here just who is voting for who. Hey even I may be shocked to see some things that are good. It may even change my outlook? Notice I did say might.

So no reply in my opinion just might indicate perhaps you are apathetic and could care less?  Perhaps even if you are not an American but doing real good you are also encouraged to reply. After all you may have one of our jobs and that has benefitted you? I just ask you to tell us what they ahve done not talked about.

So for we Americans let me ask you to ponder if the 31% or higher on credit card debt has hurt you and why? How about those fees and additional charges? Oh, you do not have credit cards. How do you feel about harassment over your debts. Calls all day long 4,5, 6 or more a day even if sick and on unsecured debt? Ok, what about your taxes, home insurance, auto insurance and other forced necessities? How are you doing with fuel costs, driving less, about the same and what type of a car do you own? Will increased fuel prices hurt you or not and if so how? Yes and how do you feel about "Comprehensive Immigration" which is another way to say we will reward those who abuse the law and steal. Sorry it is just that and all for cheap labor. Have you not read the stories recently in the press as to how these people are paid and exploited? If it were about people they would get a permit or card and come across legally, do their job and go home. Are you for tighter gun control when in fact criminals and the bad guys will always get a gun if wanted. How do you feel about passing all the risk to consumers and for increased cost?

So how do you accept this morally is the real issue? I will warn you now and while many of you will not respond because your answer in my opinion might just indicate who you really are as an individual, economically and morally. However, I really do not care what you profess to anyone. That is as I say meaningless. Empty words without works. Yet it seems to me an honest reply is fair and really appreciated and will not harm you directly or indirectly?

Many  would like to know how people reconcile voting for these people time after time after time even while "professing" they are all crooks, 81% don’t like Comprehensive Immigration", 80% of Americans think they are not doing a good job. Then how my friends, just how, if you are one of them, do you?

I think I have the answer but I can be wrong. I sum it up in what the President said "money always trumps peace". To me this is money trumps everything if it can even trump death and horror or possibly, just possibly your are just like them or who they think you are, Moo?
