I've officially reached a point where I don't believe anything I read, hear or see.....it's all manipulate and altered to form an opinion. I'm not a moderate -- as I lean toward conservative positions on fiscal issues, military and crime. I'm sort of all over the place on most social issues -- I do think we OVERTHINK much of them.
With all of that said -- the economy sucks. If the economy added 243K jobs -- I have no idea where they might be. Dems tell us it's getting better. Repubs tell us it's not. The irony is that 3 years ago -- in the same scenario -- the positions were reversed.
Until we get some statesmen back -- nothing else is going to matter. I do know that the country is not better off than it was 10 years ago, or 20 years ago, or 30 years ago....we are gradually trending DOWN. Those that blame Republicans -- please tell me how is that possible when we have more people living off the government than ever before? Those that blame the Dems -- how is that possible when the GOP continues to cater to Big Money over what's best for our future?
(Heavy Sigh).....
We need a scorched earth policy with regards to politics -- unfortunately that's not possible. I now think the clock is ticking....I just hope that when the sand finally runs out of the hourglass that anyone I love has long since passed.....but I don't think we'll last that long.
WOO HOO!
