great depression?

Can we avoid a second great depression?

If we do not avoid it, will it be even worse now
that it was back in 1929?

A great friend who lived through the first great depres­sion told me that this time it would be a lot worse.

She said that back in the days of the first great depres­sion, peo­ple knew their neigh­bors and they were friends.

Peo­ple, shared meals togeth­er, they shared, time togeth­er, they band­ed togeth­er in times of trou­ble and helped one anoth­er.

Not so now, for the most part do you even know your neigh­bors?

If you know them do you trust them with your lives?

Per­haps and per­haps not, that is the dilem­ma we find our­selves in now.

We may be about to enter into the worst dis­as­ter we have ever seen and for the most part we will not even be able to trust those that live close to us because we are so busy doing every­thing else that we have not tak­en time to get to know them.

This is what is so dis­turb­ing right now when we should be com­ing togeth­er to make things bet­ter for every­one, we are pro­mot­ing class war­fare, blam­ing oth­ers for mis­takes that adults make.  Doing things that make no sense, like invest­ing in solar pan­els, that do not exist, (alleged­ly) we are in for a rude awak­en­ing soon if we do not make some changes.

For some rea­son peo­ple seem to think that things have to be the way they are because that is the way they have always been.

But that kind of think­ing is what has got us here to begin with and to be fair it is not just the last three years, but the last 50 years.

We have to change the tax sys­tem, and turn it from a mon­ster of mil­lions of pages, down to three pages.

Sim­pli­fy our tax sys­tem, fire the idiots that can­not fig­ure out sim­ple math.

Empow­er the job cre­ators to do what they do best, cre­at­ing jobs, we can do this by remov­ing the stu­pid rules that are pre­vent­ing them from doing what they have done for years, cre­at­ing jobs.  We can avoid this sec­ond great depres­sion by invest­ing in our own nat­ur­al resources, not shady cor­po­rate wel­fare.

We can make a dif­fer­ence, but not with­out real change and not the failed lead­er­ship that we have seen for the last three years.

Some­one up in the White House, exists a man that cam­paigned on hope and change that man said that he could do great things, but so far he has not done those things, he has done oth­er things.

WE need a real leader in the White House, some­one that is not afraid to stand up for what is right in this nation, ruin­ing Amer­i­ca is not what we need, vote them out of office, if they can­not or will not change the way they are, vote them out.

If they can­not or will not change what they have done in the past that has already proven to be a fail­ure, then vote them out.

Sim­ple as that, we can­not afford to watch as peo­ple try the same old tired things that have failed world wide, in every place they have ever been tried.

WE sim­ply must avoid this kind of defeatist think­ing…
