Though I do not have anyone in my life right now that I can discuss current events well enough to make sense to me I do understand the basics of the overall picture.
Where I am from the lack of jobs that we are supposed to be suffering from doesn't necessarily ring true. Why? Because most everyone I know needs some kind of help. What I do see, however, is the rate of pay not being adequate according to what the unemployed individuals expect. It seems much more the case that it is the rate of pay that is the truest issue of job demand instead of actual job demand. For the most part, this could make sense, but it doesn't as much as the potentially underpaid would like for it to because of all the outreach programs and assistance that is so readily available in helping the underpaid to tie up their loose ends.
As for the war and wars we've been involved in, this is about a lack of shared vision and concerns... among other things. There are some things that we set out to do that were accomplished and then yet many things that were not accomplished in the way that what seems to be most of America were hoping for. It is illogical to me to think our service servants could go over to a foreign land and accomplish all the expectations of the American people because when I hear the loudest of the taunts the expectations expressed seem to lack adequate war strategy. Granted, I am not a strategist and could not boast to know war ethics, but as a basic minded housewife this has been my perception so far.
As for the deficits and such... When I listen to the economists it is readily understood that there are too many divisions among the visions even within the just two parties. I am not sure why we haven't taken the other party options as a serious consideration. What I worry about a bit is how the two available parties seem to reject the voters' vision. It seems the other parties that could be more prominent on the ballet sometimes are the ones listening the most and yet are taken the least serious.
Are we fickle as a people? Of course, it does seem so. I don't want things to be necessarily harder for Americans, personally, but I would love to see America come to be better united and better informed, but not more informed about the things that would necessarily overtake the government, just better informed about the things that would help 'us' overall to be more self-sufficient aside from the government. If we proved ourselves as citizens to be worthy of what laws we have perhaps our voices would be more considerable to the higher powers that be. It isn't wrong to question different forms of authority according to levels of individual accomplishment but it seems completely wrong to slam and slander authority randomly without regard to the potential fruits that could spring from such.
