Are we heading in the wrong direction? Many Americans like to think that the government is an almighty deity that will fix whatever problems arise. They think that by leaving things like immigration and our tax money spending on the government that everything will turn out all right. Well this couldn't be further from the truth and our debt to other countries and our resources slowly dwindling away America is not in the same shape it use to be.
In order for things to change people have to start getting more knowledgeable about our current crisis and demand change. We are fighting wars overseas, which are wasting billions of our dollars and while there are people protesting against this, the people that don't see the negative aspect in this need to wake up and look at what is happening to our economy. Unemployment rate is still as low as last year and while Obama's stimulus may look like it has giving more jobs, it has really wasted more of our tax money. With the bailout of companies like General Motors and Bank of America, its no wonder why we are increasingly going much deeper into debt.
Certain issues, such as those of immigration and Health Care are leading us away from what is really important, a stable economy. I think that the rich need to get loose with their money and help out the nation. I know that this is a far cry from what is going to happen, but if someone starts doing it, other might follow too. People need to learn that not everything good will last and that sooner or later if this keeps going on our economy is going to take an alarming turn for the worse.
