The Current Economy
Okay so I want to know what the heck is going on with our economy…are we in a recession or depression or are we just being dramatic about the whole thing?! I don’t think there’s one person out there who’s explained it well enough for me. Some blame it on irresponsible homeowners, others blame corrupt Wallstreet or CEOs, others blame the President and/or Congress. Frankly, it doesn’t matter to me who’s fault it is…okay that’s a lie because it does matter so we can prevent this type of thing from happening again…but this is ridiculous. How could no one have seen this coming?! I mean there have to have been signs along the way but they were obviously ignorerd or we have people in charge that are really really stupid and uncaring about the direction of the US’s financial situation. How many bailouts and billions of dollars do we need to dig ourselves out of this mess? Because obviously that’s not even working…at least not any time soon!
Plus it drives me absolutely crazy that neither of our two presidential candidates (do people even realize that there’s more than just two…there are other parties out there other than just Democrat and Republican) seem to know any more than our current president about the state of our economy and definitely have no better plans than our current president as far as fixing the mess that we’re in. If you listen to the presidential debates, although maybe tonight’s might be different but I’ll have to judge that later for myself, neither has specifically addressed just what they’re going to do to stabilize and improve our economy…it just seems like their respective parties’ dogma. HELLO…that’s not what I want to hear! I want to feel confident in the people running this country politically that they have some smarts about what’s going on and that they’re not just BSing like typical politicians which is exactly how I feel about both the Democratic and Republican presidential candidates…let me not even get into the VP candidates.
Anyway…Kristeen’s Khaos is no longer just about me…it’s about all of us. We all need to get out the vote and tell our future president and screwed up Congress (can we replace these incompetent and most likely corrupt people) what we demand since they’re supposed to be working for us and not special interests. BTW…please don’t tell me that only one party or presidential candidate is bought out by special interests…that’s just not the way it is in politics! We, the people, must unite and take our voting power to change the political and economic system…it’s our inherent right!
