It's Only Money

The stimulus plan is doing just what I expected . . . absolutely nothing. The stock market is plummeting, the unemployment is rising, and President Obama says he "inherited" this mess. Well, NO President Obama did not inherit this mess. Granted President Bush authored a similar stimulus plan and undoubtedly, the economy has been tanking for some time, but my argument with President Obama is in the use of the word "inherit." He campaigned to have this position. He collected millions upon millions of hard earned tax dollars to have this position, to give away more millions upon millions of hard earned tax dollars. He spent two years of what should have been a Senate term, trying to get this position, only to resign his half completed Senate term. And now, the hard working Americans that have invested in America, rather than collect for themselves, like politicians are bearing the brunt of this mess and he has the audacity to cry, "he inherited this mess." Oh, no, Mr. President, you promised Hope for this mess. You said you recognized that this was a mess, and you said, you had a plan to resolve this mess. I, personally, don't want to hear any more whining about you and what you are up against. The American people have battled more than you could ever imagine and there are many hard working Americans that didn't deserve to lose their jobs and their savings and their retirement accounts, Mr. President. You see, your retirement account is nice and safe, Mr. President. And you don't have to worry about mortgage foreclosure, Mr. President. And you, Mr. President, have no more idea what it is to live the average American existence than the last President. But while we are on the subject, I would like to know how the Bush family investments are holding up in the stock market fluctuation. And I would like to know how the Clinton's cattle futures are doing. And it would be great if the Supreme Court and the Congress had some idea of what "we the people are going through" between imminent domain and outrageous taxation for bailouts for those that are too big to fail. As I see it, it's the American tax payer that someone should recognize and protect from failing, since it's the American tax payer that is making it possible for politicians to never have to actually put in an honest day's work.
