"Government Shutdown"

Title:  “Government Shutdown”

     America!  I’m in such dismay because our Government keeps arguing like children, as the financial security of our Country is headed on the path of destruction.  

     Midnight tonight if our Government can’t come to an agreement on the budget our Country will go into default on our bills; this could affect our credit rating, the stock market, and the way we do business with other Countries in the future.  I’m worried that the value of the dollar is going to flounder because our government can’t agree to run this country with the future of America in mind.  I don’t care that you’re a Democrat, or a Republican, or a Moderate, or a Conservative; what I do care about is that you do your job. 

    Right now our Federal Workers are being furloughed or on furlough; wondering how they’re going to pay their bills.  Some American people are losing jobs, are wondering how they’re going to feed their children, and trying to figure out how to pay their rent.   How much longer and how much more must the People of America pay for the Government divide? 

     Wait a minute, now the Republican Party wants to impeach the President.  Why are we still listening to former Governor Sarah Palin?  Congress passed the bill for Obama Care, now move on!  Stop standing in the corner with your hands folded, pouting about something that has been done because you can’t go back.  America needs to move forward and progress to the next level; fix the budget!

     Remember, President Obama didn’t create the budget deficit; President Bush did that but you didn’t scream “Impeach President Bush.”  When President Clinton left office America was thriving and we were no longer in the red.  President Bush came into office and completely destroyed all of Clinton’s progress and when Bush left office we were in the red.  Stop blaming President Obama for this mess and let’s just solve the problem.  We need to pay our bills, we need a budget, that’s the only way we can stop this train wreck from happening.

     I keep thinking why are we paying The House and The Senate a pay check when the rest of the Government is not getting paid?  I don’t understand that at all.  If we took their money from them, “The People who run our Country,” I bet you they’d come up with a budget and it wouldn’t take long either.  Right now the power is in their hands and they feel empowered because of it.  It’s time that someone gives them a reality check.  “We are the people of America born of one nation.”  Let's stop the divide, work together, and fix this major problem before it really hurts our Country.

     This is your girl, Lady PJ and information is power, so be informed.  Much love to you all, and pray for a resolution. 

P.S.  It has been announced that we should have some sort of agreement by noon today.  I’m really expecting these parties to pull it together and do their job; put the American people first for a turn.
