President Obama has come out swinging. He has told lobbies to be prepared for less business. He has told Americans to strap their belts tight and gather together. I hope he is right, but I've heard that rhetoric before.
The other rhetoric that I'm so tiered of hearing are the people who say that he wants socialism. The republicans for years have said, "It's, mine, Ive earned it, and I'm not sharing it." I can understand when non christian people say it, but when I hear christian people say this I get sick to my stomach. A true christian knows that we own nothing, everything is God's and we are the care takers. Also in our care is our fellow man,"What you do unto the least of these my brothers, you do unto me." And for the person who doesn't want to "support the lazy people", don't forget the story of the prodigal son. For the non christian, remember how quickly you would let a poor man go off to war to defend your fortunes. How many poor people died for you to get your materialistic things. It's time we became the America of old. Give us your tiered and weary. Lets give our people affordable health care. If you don't like the Canadian model, improve on it. We are only on this earth for a short time, lets make the best of it. You can't take it with you.
