I feel even worse after reading some of the comments made above. I really wonder why so many are readily willing to accept lower expectations for their lives, their children’s lives and our country.
The problem isn’t that what is happening is inevitable. The problem is that we have been creating an economy, in the name of progress, that is unsustainable. The plain fact is we can not continue the growth in the number of public sector jobs and entitlements with meager or no growth in private sector economy.
Jobs that bring economic growth leave inhospitable states and countries. Higher taxes and higher labor costs drive away mobile business and jobs.
It doesn’t have to be this way. We can change direction. We just need to choose our leaders better.
We can not just vote for change, as if, it is always an improvement. Clearly, it isn’t.
