Mark Zaccaria: What Are We Going To Do About It?
It’s true that politicians from both sides of the aisle have recently forgotten the lessons of the past when it comes to spending what they don’t actually have. Today, though, the present Administration has managed to double 250 years worth of national debt in barely six months.
What does that mean to you? It means that the prices of everything you have to buy will be going up…Unnecessarily.
Economists will talk about the pluses and minuses of a weakening Dollar. Apologists for the Administration will talk about the short term need to undertake this massive spending. But they won’t talk about how it’s been ineffective so far.
Government has seen an increase in jobs. You and I haven’t.
So. What are we going to do about it? You and me, I mean. What are WE going to do about it? It is a question each of us should be carefully considering. I’ve made my commitment to run for office and try to do something about it that way. As you’ll see below, many others are also making bigger and stronger commitments than they ever have before.
As a result I am increasingly optimistic that the People of this country will stand up and do what they have always done: The Right Thing.
