As a citizen here I was born and raised in this country. My pride for the US is very deep and strong.
But we have been living under a government that is out
of pace with it’s own people. We are so quick to go to
another part of the world and be the care givers but what
about the Challenges in your own back yard.
All the money we are spending around the world we could
take half of that and possibly solve a variety of different
problems that are going on in the USA. There is a old saying
how can you fix someone else's house when you can’t even
fix your own. In other words take care of your house first then
go out and help others. And the USA needs to spend a lot of time fixing it’s government systems and programs plus what they really need to do is stop voting themselves raises.
We pay our government officials too much and we get to little back. I mean look at our social systems and programs that are supposed to help us. SSI/SSD people now have to get a lawyer
just to get what they have been paying into all their life as a retirement backup or help when disabled and can not work any more. And we have no choice we have to pay into it but they
have a choice! They don’t have to pay you, and you should look
at their rules that you have to meet to get your disability.
If I remember correctly the part that hit me was your disability
has to be about to kill you within a certain amount of month’s
or years.
Now to me these guide lines that you must meet are designed so that if you do meet them they know they will not be paying
you for long so no lost to them!!! Is this what we have come to screwing our own self's to cover for the Government
that seems to be more interested in everywhere else except
it’s own back yard. And don’t get me started on Public Aid,
Unemployment and the big one the VA.
these systems seems to be designed to kick you when you are down. Look at the hoops they make you jump through.
Also don’t let there be a problem with your
account you can go for months before someone fixes it.
No matter how many times you go to their office and tell them
as well as show them! and if you try to call the main office for help they tell you your account is in that office and only they can fix it!!!! But they do not even know how the system works so how can they fix it. And If they did know, how come there are so many people at there offices complaining about not getting their benefits or getting paid?
It seems that no matter who we vote in they never keep
their promises. Once in the office they forget or get persuaded
to change their view. Or sometimes they are even pushed in to a corner and have no choice. But getting back to the systems,
our government is breaking down from the inside. Look at how
the white house can be gotten into so easy now. And another person got in and they did not even know this. I wonder if this all would be the same if Obama was WHITE????
It’s like they don’t care about the president because he is not
WHITE. I wonder has this ever happen before and did the people get as close as they did to the president and first Lady. You know back in the day protecting the president was
a honor but I guess today it’s a JOKE!!!!
And if you look carefully you’ll see the whole Country seems
to be in on this. Company’s using The presidents and the first lady images with out their permission??? This would not happen if they felt any respect for the office. Or is it no respect for the man?
We have a long way to go and we will not make it if we keep
screwing over our self’s. The USA needs to start investing in itself more then other countries. Like making going to college
available to everyone who wants to go. Other countries have learned and they know the future lies with our kids and if the
USA does not change its rules and start making it easier for
Kids to go to college and other higher learning schools we are going to get left behind. Change that we have been left behind. Education scores from other countries compared
to the USA shows we are already behind and that’s why they can come over here and get jobs that we can’t get!!
Look at Infosys and what they have done to keep up. They have their own campus where they are turning out 1400 engineers a year for there company in India!
And in closing I just want to say we need to get US together
before it is to late!
