Already forgot the Voter

Less than three weeks have passed since the election and already politicians have decided the voter’s wishes are no longer important. I feel used, dirty; I need a shower. “Out damn spot, Out!” I scrub with pumas stone and still I feel violated. Enough drama?

The fact is that politicians are corrupt. They believe they can do anything they want no matter what they promise. Joe Citizen is not important. We can cut him into pieces and sell him on the world markets. Even though the Democrat’s leadership promised no witch hunts, we have ever increasing rhetoric about inquisitions and impeachment of this or that politician. In the first 100 hours we will raise the minimum wage. To what?

A measly $7.35 that still does not cover the losses to inflation while politicians increase their own salaries! We will fight Pork spending. So what have they done? In the spirit of true cooperation the Democrats and Republicans reached across the isle to pass legislation with even more pork. Isn’t it great when we all get along.

Politicians are talking about everything except the issues for which they were elected. SECURE OUR BORDERS! SECURE OUR PORTS! STOP COLLUDING WITH CORPORATIONS!

We have serious problems. Unemployment is rampant; wages are falling (no matter what the governmental data says). Politicians have spent the equity our nation has created and placed us with $47 trillion in debt.

It is time for all who love this nation to rise up and fight for what is ours. This nation is not just for the politicians or corporate moguls. It is made up of you and me, working Joes trying to make a better life for our children. Yet, WE THE PEOPLE, are losing the battle. In north Texas 1 out of 8 people does not know where dinner will come from. These are not people without a job. These are hardworking people unfortunate enough to have been reduced to slavery by collusion between corporate America and politicians.

We can win this battle but the time to sit by and watch is over. Every time a politicians talks about their interests we need to shout out what are our concerns and remind them of how and why they were elected. If they will not listen we need to immediately initiate every means legally available to remove them from office. The will of Joe Citizen is clear. Forget the spin and remember you are not alone. Speak your voice, clear and loud, together we can beat political corruption and eliminate the collusion between politics and companies.
