Now to some this might sound like unfair, since we all know that most millionaires and billionaires worked hard for their money that is…wait for it… unless it was inherited, hmm?
Not today we are told most are self made, fill-in-the-blank-aires.
And so what I am about to suggest will definitely piss off some of them if not most, true? Well, how can you know that unless you read what I am writing and you haven’t yet, hmm?
Any-who, here goes …, SOAPBOX TIME BIG TIME!
I do think that the concept of the wealthy paying a wee bit more in taxes and not taking out as much in social security and Medicare when they come of age and retire or paying higher co-payments, since they can without pain, so to speak, would probably be helpful to aid in the reconciliation of our fourteen trillion dollar debt and counting.
Now about the fact that, that would prevent them from freely creating more jobs which we all know they hold the golden keys to doing…I do believe is a bunch of hogwash!
How much does one need to open a stand and hire a bunch of good hard working people, really?
The other alternative which many seem to feel is necessary by cutting Social Security and Medicare, disability, and aid to the veterans, what are they crazy?
Don’t they know that if these are cut or diminished in any way, shape or form that these fine people, ourselves included will end up trickling down to the truly down trodden millions and resort to Medicaid and all those other programs available for those who have nearly no income at all and cannot work due to no fault of their own and then what good will that do?
Now you will have more on those programs that soon too will have to go, since they too need an overhaul.
Here’s another idea, reduce the amount of nonsensical research programs that are paid for by our government, or pork bellies or special interest groups getting funding for let’s see: things like the true reason why the chicken crossed the road, what was she thinking, huh? Or for museums for salt and pepper shakers that all can be privately funded by whatever idiot may find those things interesting to them, perhaps a billionaire who wants to cut his taxes, hmm, what-have-you!
Government salaries should be cut to more realistic ones where government employees that are elected by us should not receive increases unless their voters have received them too, same with good health care it all should be decided by tandem realism that means tit for tat, if they get it we do too! After all aren’t they, OUR EMPLOYEES!
Those ideas could save billions for that I am more than sure!
It’s only a beginning but I am sure you all have more ideas and now we can easily send them on to the people who are trying, do we really think so? Well, let’s give them the benefit of the doubt since our futures are in their hands… making all those choices for you and me…in our tomorrows! Here is access to say what you feel: http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
I think that a campaign to really listen to their constituents would or could be helpful and so what... we have nothing to lose and everything to gain, wouldn't you say?
On that power of being able to do something, instead of sitting back and not doing anything, it is definitely very freeing! Please allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and to ask you all to kindly count your blessings and share all your overages and we will too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
Speaking My Mind is about: Tobi, who is a middle aged, no, oh all right a slightly over the hill woman with all the imperfections that go with that, and this concerns her daily life's perceptions and experiences.
