Well Here we go with the Debt Ceiling Deal. No tax increases on those who can afford them and plenty of cuts down the road for those in need who cannot.
Surprise?
Hardly.
We seem to be going about this the wrong way. Comments talk of voting and defeat and our voices not being heard (average and poor Americans) yet we fail to understand the most important thing.
We are the majority. The Upper Middle Class, Middle Class and Impoverished make up the majority in the U.S. Population.
Sure the wealthy have more money, more bankroll backed power. Thus the contributions by the Koch Brothers and Insurance companies to further their agenda of Big Business.
They have a right to do so. Its America where democracy is still at least an ideal we hold to even if it seems to not work lately in practice. The Koch Brothers and Corporations are Voting with their dollar. They have a LOT of dollars to vote with and Their voices are being heard and their Policies are the ones winning in the end right now.
So what are we to do if we don’t agree with the way our country is going. How can we make our voices heard. The Average American against the big Bucks guys out there? We do the same thing the Koch Brothers and Big corporations do.
WE VOTE WITH OUR DOLLAR. As a majority we have a LOT of dollars to vote with . Its time we Realize We have power in our dollars and how we spend them. Even a Single dollar bill Spread over the majority of the population holds GREAT POWER. Thats a lot of Dollar bills!
Right now we need to protect our rights as the majority. We need to make sure we protect those most in need . The elderly, The poor, The disabled children who depend on the “entitlement” programs.
We need to Protect Social Security which is NOT an Entitlement as their so fond of calling it , we paid for it with our hard earned money.
We need to Protect Unemployment benefits for those out of work.
We need to have Medical care that won’t put us into bankruptsy court or worse.
We need The ability to send our kids to college with funds to help because we don’t have a spare half million laying around to pay our kids thru Harvard.
We need Enough support to put food on our tables without cutting somewhere else like on meds.
We need the occasional luxury like a dinner out or a real extravagance like a day away somewhere.
Remember those days when at the end of scraping by there’d be a little perk at the end of all the hard work . Nothing big like million dollar vacations homes or 50,000.00 purses. Just a day away at a cheap hotel with a pool for the kids and a little fun.
Those days are gone and now even our bare necessities are being put on the table in the name of raising the debt ceiling and balancing budgets.
Its not Costing the Big Corporations, The Insurance Companies, The Big Bucks people a single dollar in increased tax revenue. Its all cuts. Cuts for the majority. The Average American.
So Is it time to stop this fianlly? I think so.
The only thing that the Big Money Corporations , the Koch brothers , Insurance companies, and The Tea Party BigWigs Understand is the almightly dollar.
We need to VOTE WITH OUR DOLLAR.
Yes we can vote in the next elections and We should. If we want to protect the rights of the average and poor american we need to get the Tea Party supported Elected officials out of office. Thats next year.
This year we can Send a clear and definate message that will let them know what we think of their debt deal…. WE NEED TO STOP SPENDING.
If the majority of Americans STOP SPENDING on Things we Want and only purchase the bare necessities we NEED we will send a message they understand. Your buck stops here. We’ll hurt the corporations, the big business that are posting quarterly big gains while the rest of us are wondering how to pay our medical bills, Put food on the table, and replace a lost job.
We’ll vote with our dollar to say no to Social Security cuts, Medicare cuts, Cuts for disabled children, All the Entitlement programs they so blithely talk of putting a drain on the great American dream.
Well the American Dream is for a few chosen now and the rest of the Americans are caught in a living nightmare of epic proportion and we can’t seem to wake up.
So Heres some Tips to send that message with the biggest one coming up right in front of us. The Big Businesses Depend on the Holidays for a large portion of their Big profits.
CUT THE HOLIDAY SPENDING OUT! Its discretionary . We don’t need to Purchase Gifts from The Big Corporations. We don’t Need to spend 700.00 upwards per family where the dollars support big business profit. Put it in an account for your children. Save it with this debt deal you’ll need it. Make Handmade. Buy From a little Struggling local Seller. Buy Re-sale. Buy Something Made in America by the average guy or gal. Do some research, Make an informed choice of where to spend your dwindling dollar.
Do we really need More Game systems and games so our kids can plug into a tv sitting on their butts all day. Do we really need the The next Kindle or Kindle book, More cameras and more bling. Do we really need more stuff?
When do we say enough Blind spending is enough?
When there’s No more programs for the Average American and The poor and elderly?
Face it a lot of this mess is on our backs. We just keep letting it happen instead of doing something about it. We blithely and blindly spend, spend, spend watching our bank accounts dwindle, our stress levels rise as we try to pay back the credit cards.
The Super Rich Pocket these dollars and smile and go on another vacation all at our expense. So what do we do? Its so simple Guys Cmon Think about it!
SIMPLY STOP BLINDLY SPENDING NOW.
Send the only message that the Koch Brothers, The Big Money making Corporations, The Big insurance Companies and the Tea Party Big Wigs understand.
SEND THE MESSAGE THAT HITS THEIR QUARTERLY PROFITS. One that hits their pocket books. One that hurts them in the only place these people feel pain… their pocket books.
Were the majority here and its time we act like it!
