Follow the money, and you'll find waste. Our leaders are always looking for more ways to take and spend our money. Over the last thirty years, different representatives of government and businesses searched for ways to spend our money that have an everlasting effect.

We have defined our latest war as war with no end. A war on terror is a war against people who dislike America. There will always be people who don't like America. A war on drugs only helps them spend money on police, courts, and prisons. While no one admits people will always use drugs if they want to.

Our country has made promises with the greatest of intentions. Some of the things our government promised to pay for must be reevaluated. We need to decide on the priority of those promises.  Help has been given to those at the top time and again. While everyone else is not just threatened, with continued economic insecurity and further unemployment, but must live with it day to day. 

On top of all this is this feeling of uncertainty. We need an idea as to what their future holds. So we can feel that we are taking part in a collective effort to save our country together.

I wish us all the very best. PeacE
