Why our country is screwed

Get ready for the Second Great Depression. Is it just me or a majority of Americans just do not care anymore or have we forgot that We The People truly have the final say in this matter? |

My mom owns and runs a day care center. About half of the families she has are on state assisted funding and they all live very nicely and are able to afford nice newer cars. Its pretty ridiculous...
And by state assisted funding, I mean the moms spend about $50 a month on day care and the state picks up the other $600:eek: |

They have free health insurance, too. I haven't been to see a doctor in 10 years. Two winters ago I was very very sick, and thought about going to see a doctor. After i found out how much it was going to cost, i decided not to go. I'm glad I didn't. I feel fine now. ;) Mike |

I am not defending Obama, his task is next to impossible in my opinion. Just give him the chance to rectify things. Quote:

All you folks who think people living on state assistance have got it made, why don't you quit your jobs and hop on the gravy train?

After I was out of the service I was dumped at the front gate and told to have a nice life. I struggled finding a job where I was, and ended up working as a lathe operator for $9/hr, 14 hour days in a 100F factory with fiberglass particals everywhere from what I was doing. We made fiberglass pipes. I lost my job there due to a car problem and couldn't make it to work for 2 days. I went to the unemployment office and was denied for reasons they would not specify. A disabled vet with a wife and 2 kids to support, and I couldn't get any help to speak of. Not from the military, not from the state, not from the feds. They turned their back on me when I couldn't find a job and was on rough times, now that I have a job and am doing well, they're right back cramming their hands into my pockets to remove as much money as possible. So much is wrong with this country, and I would love to move from it, but having kids and an ex-wife I am tied to where I am, for now at least. At some point it would be great, but not now. |

The point is, the government should not be rewarding people to sit on their ass and collect checks, some even living better than those who go out and work their fingers to the bone. It's absurd, and as the topic suggests, why our country is screwed. |
