I think its a crying Shame we have People in our Goverment who could, but chose not to Keep the Price of OIL and Gas down to where it should be. Also the Price of our FOOD! They are more interested in how much Money they can stuff in there Pockets. What ever Happened to Goverment FOR the People? When they start passing Bills to spend $180,000.00 to research Lobster tasting dog food!!! Some-thing is totaly wrong with our Leaders in Washington, Time to change the guard, I think. About the only time we hear from them is when its time for them to get into office again! We could start and take there Free Meals ( and Booze) away from them and give the savings to the Needy, I think that would Feed a lot of the ones who really need it. Let all running for Senate or Goverment Office be Required to work at a low paying Job for three or four years before they can run for office.Let them struggle with their Wife and Children, Decide on Heat for their Home or Food for their Table.Say nothing about Medicene. I'll bet they would think a little more about who they are working for. Then ,as long as they do right by the People of this Great Country they can stay for six or eight years. Lets work to get OUR AMERICA back on track, before its to late.report abuse
