Would you ask your children to pay for your dinner tonight? Your grandchildren?
How about your great-great-great-great-great-great-grandchildren?
No?
Then stop doing it in your home AND in your government! With just over 100 hours to go before the next elections, you need to ask yourself this primary question…
Which candidate will stop spending the money of Americans far past the generation of your children or grandchildren. Not just the Presidential candidates but EVERY SINGLE politician!
It is quite simple…
$16 trillion is $16,000,000,000,000
If we could simply get back to the small surplus of $89 billion ($89,000,000,000) from President Clinton and the Republican Congress, it would take more than 179 years to pay-off JUST THE PRINCIPAL of our debt. That does not include any interest. There are many, many more details, but we should focus on this simple fact…
179+ years = 9 generations.
Did you meet your great grandparents? How about great-great grandparents?
Do you know the name of your great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparent?
How good would that steak, veggie, glass of wine taste tonight if you KNEW you were forcing your family to pay for it far into the future. It makes me sick. It infuriates me!
PLEASE stop talking about the wants and needs of you or your fellow man. Our Nation is not great because we pass the buck onto others, it is great because we step-forward, take charge, and fix what is broken.
When you pull that lever, touch that screen, ink that space, put a baby’s newborn face into your mind and realize that you are choosing what that baby will still have pressing down on him or her to have a successful life… A comfortable life… A quality life.
Time to get back to the Constitution and stop interpreting it and just read its words simply!
