Trimming the shrub

from JoeUser Forums

I saw these headlines this morning and was wondering how, after nearly eight years of Bush, people who votd for him sleep at night.

 

Ideas?

Actually, I am getting worried about this economy and I see it as a clear indication of flawed economic policies.

Could you tell me, specifically, what you'd like to see changed?

Hello Texas,

Yes, I'd be happy to.  I'd like to see a shift in national focus from international warfare to our national rebuilding.  I'd like to see a lowering of the national debt by less military spending, less corporate tax relief, and less whining about those have nots who need basic services.

As I see it, our economic priorities are screwy.  War, war and more war.  All we seem to be doing is creating more enemies, meanwhile our own country seems to be going to hell in a handbasket. 

What do you think?

See ya!

What national rebuilding do you think that the federal government of the US needs to do?

Our national focus is certainly not international warfare. Our focus presently is largely to provide social services to our own citizens. You can see that based on the outlays of the federal and state governments.

How is our country going to hell in a hand basket and what do you think the federal government can do to change that?
