Too Little, Too Late

Our economy, is in the toilet. No matter what the government says, its a sad and unhappy truth. Now, if anyone is to blame it is ourselves. Our country has been living beyond its means and the day to pay up has finally arrived. The car companies are hemorrhaging money and they are being saved by the government. Now, it is logical to try and preserve the jobs that these businesses create but the heads of these companies are not going to change their ways if they will be picked up every time they mess up. They have also halted the research on new fuel sources so that they can stay friendly with the oil companies. Another group of people annoying me are the unions. With all due respect, SHUT UP! If the workers cost more then the companies cannot have that many workers can they. The money pile is only so big. If you ask for too much, you might get nothing at all. The war has become impossible to end. There is no solution for the regions we are currently involved in. So having soldiers killed to guard our oil interests is quite trivial. It is the hope of many that Obama can save us from this and put us on the right track. Now he might make good progress towards that goal, but its gonna take longer than four or even eight years to clean this mess up. Its also gonna take a Congress that has the guts to displease some people. But all we can do is guess on what will happen next. Maybe some common sense would help.
