Reagan
always asked…are you better off today vs four years ago? He did it when
he beat Carter and later winning re-election against Mondale. For the first
time in most people’s lives, the answer to this question is “no” and I don’t
know why this question is never presented in todays’ race for President
considering stagnant wages, low workforce participation rate, record welfare
and disability claims just to name a few…On the other hand I’m completely sure
why Obama never brings up this subject. He knows there are millions of Americans
like me that know their healthcare costs, including premiums, just blasted off
into the stratosphere. And all his new regulations have made life rather
miserable for the small independent guy he’s trying to send to the unemployment
line. Because of this, I would like to see Trump or Cruz bluntly blurt
out, “It’s spending stupid!” when they are asked about the government debt in
this upcoming debate.
Washington
is very sick with a terrible spending problem. The only cure is to take away
their wallet. Speaker John Boehner apparently forgot this was his mandate
in November and I don’t know if there’s a place left for Boehner in the
Republican Party because of this. People are mad we gave them both
Houses and they aren’t following through on promises. We are
finished with “politics as usual” and that is a huge reason why so many
Beltway folks are mad that Trump leads that race. Those Grand Old Republicans
have gotten a huge wake-up call and I’m wondering if they will ever report to
work or will simply continue hitting the snooze button…
Meanwhile
it’s comical watching the Karl Rove-types scratching their heads wondering
why Trump is seemingly untouchable at this point. Talk about detached from your
base! Guess what Karl: Most of us conservatives think you are bad
for the party…and since a third party candidate has little to no chance of
winning the Whitehouse, all of us conservative realists will simply take
back our old party and kick the old establishment to the curb where they
belong for not listening to us. Take a year to realize you can’t beat us…we
don’t care! We have problems to fix, starting with the healthcare
fleecing of American voters that your ilk have allowed to continue without
repairs or modifications. You would have thought when your voter base’s premiums
doubled, alarm bells would have gone: “I should fight this for them!”
Instead, you’ve done absolutely nothing, choosing to sit back and
watch the same voters premiums go up the next year, and following years…and then
when the next election cycle comes around you try to act like you care
about us.
Sorry
but I don’t buy it. A good leader would have punted. He would have fought
for solutions before this new law was able to hurt so many family budgets
across American. Competition would have prevented many of these rate hikes, but
that solution is perhaps too easy for your partisan minds to grasp.
Further,
when I read stories of the fast track trade powers you gave Obama, a guy
has never even traded baseball cards as a kid, it makes me wonder why you give
him anything in light of the way he’s lied, embarrassed, and treated the
American public throughout his term. Unfortunately your
inaction has left many conservatives also wondering exactly which party
you are actually serving–his or ours.
