We Need More Money

I am sure that most of you drove past the gas stations this week and saw how ridiculous the gas prices were. $ 4 a gallon is just ridiculous. If the president would just listen to me, I have an idea on how to help the average person to pay for there gas. The government should set a National minimum wage that is 7 dollars or higher to help the people cope with inflation.
In the last year, the cost of gas has risen a considerable amount. More than most of us could have ever imagined and to be honest no one has a set idea as to why. Many believe its because of the war and others believe its our problems with other foreign nations. Either way you look at it, the people get the short end of the stick. 5 dollars and 15 cents an hour barley gets you a gallon and a half of gas, but compare that to all the other things we have to pay for like medical insurance, food, shelter and clothing, the average American person will simply not be able to live if the price of gas and inflation keep going up and the minimum wage stays the same.
All our government has to do is raise how much we get paid hourly, and then we will spend more and in return our economic spending will increase.
But lets just face it. Were going to end up the poorest country in ten years if this keeps up.

The Stupid Season

I was searching the web today, as i always do and i came across this commentary page The Smirking Chimp, in it was an article called "The Stupid Season" and can be found here ( http://www.smirkingchimp.com/thread/13201 ) . I read it so you don't have to and in it, it basicly says that politics are getting stupid and out of hand, much like a game. Hillary's Crying, McCain is holding Bar-B-Q's in Arizona and Ralph Nader is running once again. In this page, they point out that Hillary calls out Obama in saying that " 'Now, I could stand up here and say, 'Let's just get everybody together. Let's get unified. The sky will open. The lights will come down. Celestial choirs will be singing and everyone will know we should do the right thing and the world will be perfect. 'Maybe I've just lived a little long, but I have no illusions about how hard this is going to be. You are not going to wave a magic wand and have the special interests disappear.' " Then she was caught telling us "kids" to step down and let the adults handle it.

Personally to me, that is an insult. Doesn't she know that us "kids" will be the ones they look up to in support when there funds run out and they get old and need us to take care of them? If she keeps this up, us "kids" will turn around when there old and say we can't take care of you. Remember, were just kids.

The article goes on and talks about how the game between politics is getting old and boring at this point. The whole pointing fingers and backstabbing each other is old. No one is buying into the bullshit they are making us watch day after day. Tomorrow comes Texas election, and tomorrow all im probably going to hear all day is "who did you vote for? why?" and im simply going to say " Who really gives a crap who i voted for. I know you really don't care and in about a week no one is going to give a rats butt who i voted for." I like this commentary. It called american politics on its' bullshit and maybe soon we will all shut up and move on to something better like Who will be Americas Next Top Model?
