We are the greatest democracy in history, yet we still don't have adequate benefits for our returning military men & women, and our dollar keeps dropping in value against the world economy. Our current administration has done little to rectify these problems, and month after month they get worse. High fuel prices, high grocery prices, and no workable solutions to date. Our stagnant administration and their yes men in Congress have no new ideas, only the rehashing of old ones that didn't work before either. It is time for change.
We should be able to provide care for the youngest of us,oldest of us, find those who can't help themselves.
Iraq
This was a mistake. We know this now. Our soldiers should be fighting for America, not Iraq.
The economy
$4.00 a gallon for gas! Likely to be $6 soon. Let's strengthen the dollar and hold those accountable who are profiting at the expense of the American worker.
Our tax system
Simplify it now. The IRS is a runaway bureaucracy that provides more problems than solutions to meeting our government's tax dollar needs. A solution along the lines of a national sales tax, or fair tax, that exempts the poor and the elderly on fixed incomes, may be the solution we need.
Military
Our military men and women deserve the greatest benefits available from our government. Don't ignore them - fund them! They offer their lives for our country, we should be disciplined when asking them to fight.
