the government is most certainly overgrown ,like a lot left unattended for years, now full of trash and debris and weeds so high you can't see what is behind them nor can you see the ground where all thats native first rooted and took hold,what is behind all those weeds? i suspect it's capitol hill and Pennsylvania ave.,they like the weeds high so we can't see what they are doing,personally, i think it's a good idea, this new ammendment , but why wait 5 yrs, ,,lets limit terms in this ammendment while we're at it, giving more honest citizens a chance to participate, lets also restructure retirement for government employee's namely congressmen, to make it comparable with the working man's retirement, there is no reason why after a life time of back breaking work, that has broken down his body, he be given a retirement with pitiful medical care, and money so little they must eat cat food, or be forced to work a side job,, that's not retirement,,,,, ADD IN ALSO,,, no pilfering of social security money, the money taken from our checks before we receive them. had social security funds always been left alone, then the common man and woman could retire with the same pay and benefits as a senator,,,, are they better than us?? most of them are nothing more than a legal criminal with a degree,,, it doesn't take a degree to have common sense, and love and compassion for your fellow man,,, and while we are at it, add in, that the government will enforce immigration laws, and not show favoritism to immigrants applying for citizenship thru, generous business loans, years of tax exemption and other loopholes a born citizen never see's or realize's,, stop handing out job's and position's based on minority status ,using sliding scores that shave points,, we should all be americans,, this can be achieved by equal education opportunity, I hear people touting this fair tax, i have to look it up,, but, if there was a national flat tax of just 10 percent, then when exxon makes 4 billion in profit, they have to pay 400 million instead that 38 million they brag about paying, if they're to be tax advantage's give it to small business so they have a chance to grow and create jobs here in america instead of oversea's somewhere,,, buy american if you can, you job may be on the line.., I'll stop here, cause I could go on and on,,, think of this last thought, it is american history that actually happened that current government seems oblivious to:
A great way to lower unemployment !!!!!!
Here is something that should be of great interest for you to pass around.
I didn't know of this until it was pointed out to me.
Back during The Great Depression, President Herbert Hoover ordered the deportation of ALL illegal aliens in order to make jobs available to American citizens that desperately needed work.
Harry Truman deported over two million Illegal's after WWII to create jobs for returning veterans.
And then again in 1954, President Dwight Eisenhower deported 13 million Mexican nationals! The program was called 'Operation Wetback' so that American WWII and Korean veterans had a better chance at jobs. It took 2 Years, but they deported them!
Now, if they could deport the illegal's back then, they can sure do it today!! lf you have doubts about the veracity of this information, enter Operation Wetback into your favorite search engine and confirm it for yourself.
Reminder. Don't forget to pay your taxes... 12 million Illegal Aliens are depending on you!
