America Problem is Career Politicians

Since it is not their money they don’t care how it is spent. They take our money to shore up their base and to ensure they are reelected to office.

With the surge in the poles for Herman Cain’s candidate for President of the United States, potential voters appear to be pulling away from career politicians. I think this is a good sign, after all look what reelecting career politicians brought us. 1) A new generation that knows nothing about hard work. 2) People that think their country owe them everything, from housing to health care. 3) People, a voting block depended or addicted to government handouts.

   Some folks in this country seem to think since they pay taxes that should entitle them to whatever they want. However, the amount of taxes the government is taking in is not enough, that is why we have to borrow forty five cents out of every dollar we take in just to run this country. There are 40 million Americans receiving food stamps and the number of unemployed  at 14.0 million, and millions running out of unemployment checks soon. Folk, that is a recipe for a riot because the United States have too many spoil people. When I was laid off in the 80s, I did not run around looking for someone to blame, I picked up the telephone book and call different employers until I found work and I moved to other states to well as well. When I was laid off again I did not let that stop me, I landed about three jobs working sometimes around the clock. I never received food stamps in my life. Now there is nothing wrong with food stamps for those who truly need it. What I am saying is, I wanted to work, and I loved working with my hand providing a service, and my employers were pleased with my work. I never heard of a person being on unemployment for a year. I did whatever it took to put food on my table, dirty but honest work. President Obama has failed. He has failed to motivate the American people, to be less dependent on government. He has failed in his Keynesian approach to unemployment. He has failed because he does not have any executive experience nor any real leadership positions. Instead of bringing in people with experience he spends most of his time campaigning blaming others for his failures and repeating the same failed policies.

   I believe Herman Cain will work at finding solutions and not fault. The American people need to wake up to the real world that is before them. We can no longer sustain a false sense of prosperity, there is no oasis just a dry desert. We are tapped out! It is a world economy and the only way we can compete is to lower our standard, including all over bearing regulations and taxation that made moving companies to China more attractive.

Obama said he was going to bring those jobs back and criticized then presidential candidate John McCain for saying they were not coming back. Don’t forget about all of those green jobs. Where are they? Solyndra took 500 million of our tax dollars and then filed for bankruptcy. SunPower received $1.2 billion federal loan guarantee for a photovoltaic electricity ranch project. Now go see if you can find out what they are doing.

   You see what happens when you vote for someone based solely on emotions. Herman Cain has a track record of executive experience and he is a straight shooter. Someone said to me recently that it takes move than that to run this country. Yet, they failed to apply that same reasoning when it came to Barack Obama. I wonder why? For he never ran anything, except his mouth giving speeches.
