| The Economy |
 The
Democrats with the help of the big spending Republicans are destroying
our economy. Your United States of America has a $53,000,000,000,000
($53 TRILLION) DEFICIT. Sheila Jackson-Lee and the other incumbents
have walked up to the Federal Treasury’s “ATM machine” and “charged” $175,000
to each American citizen. Our economy will collapse if you and
I don’t make some changes.
It seems that every day we are faced with more and more gloomy
economic news. Many of you reading this have never really experienced
a recession. Those of you that have are probably more prepared
to ride it out, if necessary.
Economic retractions happen much faster than growth and we
are indeed in a time of economic retraction. Many of us may be
facing difficulties balancing our budget but with a little belt tightening we
will be able to ride out a recession.
With only a 16% approval rate, we have to change Congress. We must break the
government spending/government borrowing cycle. Just like our families, the Federal Government has to learn to live within its
means.
The sub-prime mortgage issue has gotten out of hand because Congress is too busy investigating drug use in professional sports, funding
pork barrel projects and earmarks when they are not fighting for political advantage. The Democrat majority in Congress has let predatory
lending practices, including pay day loans and pawn shops, get out of control.
In troubled times, it is easy to point the finger of blame at someone,
but in this case, the record shows that career Congresswoman
Sheila
Jackson Lee has not raised a hand against any predatory lending
practice.
I applaud certain aspects of President Bush's Economic Stimulus
Act of 2008, especially those that support business. Small Business
owners stimulate our economy by creating the majority of employment
in the United States, yet they have to struggle to comply with
federal mandates and still try to make a profit.
The tax rebate part of the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 will most
likely amount to nothing but a retail gift from the Federal Government.
I promise you that using my education in business (MBA) and my
experience in the business world I will work to keep a tight hold
on the Federal Budget and run away taxes and spending. I will actually
be able to read and understand a budget. I am not certain we can
say that
about some members of the current Congress. |
