Why can't we just totally eradicate the Nationwide deficit, forget about budgets and bailouts! Put everyone back on a clean slate including big businesses and banks! Instead of becoming a goverment run country, where peoples feelings are put aside, and pride is only stuck in a sinking economy! Small businesses are dwindling every day and no one is bailing them out! Let everyone be debt free, that will certainly boost the economy! Government yearns folks to spend, but how can we spend when the cost of living is going through the roof!
Politicians promises change, why can't we start over where everyone is equal. Health coverage for everyone, not just the best coverage for the rich who can afford it! Deficits and budgets are falling on deaf ears. Sick and tired of the rhetorical hype, and watching everyone sink in the pit! The American dream is still alive, but put on stranglehold until the smoke clears, if the huge ominus cloud ever clears.
Our economy has taught us one thing, do not indulge in extravagance! Growing up with bare necessities, I sure learned the value of a buck. Remember our folks always told us "Save for a rainy day!" How much wisdom they held in their words, especially today! We learned to live with less, and spent less in the long run! I never missed the absence of material things, because I always had what I needed! A well implemented upbringing, will get you through the toughest of times! We can't blame the government for our own overspending!
I just keep thinking about the mess we're in, and embracing simplicity of old ideals just might give us the change we need to forge ahead. I'm not a politian, but it appears clear and commonsence After all it's not about how much you own, but honest inner integrity which makes you great and brings forth the most happiness! What do you believe in, what are your ideals?
P.S. Just finished emailing Pennsylvania Representavies on saving our parks here! May prove fruitless, but in turn may save a few! Anyone interested see Heads Up Pennsylvanians ~ Bill 850 To Close 35 Pennsylvania State Parks for addresses!

Hi jo,
It's the same in Japan, jo. Current tops in Japan know the bubble era, so their approach is weak. I'm not good at commenting on politics but I think it is time to change old ideas... I sometimes hate Japanese cozy relations.
I think you are doing the right thing as a nation. I am ashamed that I can't do (don't do) anything X(
Hi Ochi,
I thinking the old ideas are the ones we need to go back to here! I don't think it's always change we need! Old ways carry a lot of wisdom!
My parents grew up during the Depression, and they never changed the same frugal habits they had to use then. I find myself the same way now. I'm downright cheap, in fact. So those are my values--live within your means, avoid credit, ignore the Jones's...what do they know? Haha. Heck, we even refuse to buy cable. Too expensive!
Hey Jo,
I'm the same way, cheapo love it! I know I think credit gets a lot of folks in trouble way over their heads! We have kept our cable but given up our Cinnemax! Yes at least we realize when things get rough we know how to handle our lives!
Hi jo,
I have frugal habits, too.
I never said it loud, but now I understand why. And it wasn't only me. Ha-ha!!!
But sometimes I want to get rid of this habit...
Hi Ochi,
I'm just saying that you can't blame others for your own overspending! Stay within your means, to treat yourself with things is ok! For example putting unneeded expenses on a credit card! ;)
