"We're in the hand-basket my friends. Guess where we're headed." -Jay Anderson

Found by a friend: "If the US Government was a family, they would be making $58,000 a year, they spend $75,000 a year & are $327,000 in credit card debt. They are currently proposing BIG spending cuts to reduce their spending to $72,000 a year. These are the actual proportions of the federal budget & debt, reduced to a level that we can understand." - Dave Ramsey


Need I say more?  I had a dear friend tell me the other day that she was going to vote for President Obama and give him another 4 years because he is trying his best, and all these problems aren't his fault.  And I thought, what is this, social promotion?


So for the sake of this argument, lets just say, he actually is trying his best, and the problems we are facing aren't his fault.  (Although I believe he has certainly contributed, and certainly not done anything to improve the issues.)  Are we going to just sit here and let someone who is that bad at their job sit there and just try to figure it out, while the existence of our country is at stake?  If we were talking about a 4 year old learning to ride a bike without training wheels, that would be one thing.  But would you intentionally get on an airplane with a pilot who had never flown before and just be happy to be patient while he figured it out?  I sure wouldn't!  And that goes for all politicians here, on both sides, not just the president.  


It doesn't take a rocket scientist ( I actually know one of those by the way and he agrees with me.) to see that the proverbially family Dave Ramsey is talking about is headed for bankruptcy.  We would be naive to think that our country isn't headed in the same direction if we don't  have a serious course correction, right now!
