People are hoping, yearning, seeking help for their plight and in every direction they turn they get more of the likes of those who brought this hardship upon them. Yet, unbelievingly many look to these same ones to be their saviors. How very sad, it is so sad it is overwhelming. Yes they look to the very ones who in my opinion lead them to their woe. Yes these who say one thing but do another, flip flopping as required and who they speak to. Yes and hurting Americans and yes those who just don't know  seek to press hands with them, be seen with them as if this will make it all better. Yes and of course they yearn to hear them speak and tell them what they want to hear, but in reality mere words, hollow and empty in my opinion.

Why would someone say this? Well a leader takes action to correct a problem. They can certainly do than if they were leaders and they do not have to wait until they are elected. They can either lead or they can't, period. Secondly look, yes just look in my opinion at the facades they perpetuate upon a hoping mass of people. Yes facades if one gets down to just who they are helping. It lays heavy upon me because the facts are there for all to know and I know first hand as many others also sadly do by opinion and experience that it is all a lie, a sham, a facade that they offer.
 
You do not think so, well like I said I can tell you first hand I will debate it with anyone who wishes to about any topic of help be it private, business, government, church, whatever. All a facade and the Easter Bunny of all Easter Bunnies, a hollow shell. Like I said I have and I am experiencing it first hand as I have others are and have. These facts I offer are supported and proved by their own words and deeds. Just listen to what they say, the words they use, "credit worthy", "responsible" as if people getting laid off when their job went offshore are irresponsible? Yes read, understand what they are saying and who they help. Yes who they help. Once again who they help! Yes and you will see exactly who the help is geared to and it isn't those who need it now or the most regardless of what they offer in words. 
 
Here is an  example live and true. In Florida, yes, you love our Governor don't you, love Florida don't you, well read all about it as they say. They loved the Titanic as well. Yes they cut help for the needy, those who need it the most. A fact that these persons of professed honor don't like to speak to. Yes cut people and the help they need while they get raises and make over $100,000 a year. Yes talk about integrity, honor, values, a belief in God and Love of neighbor, yes talk of it all because that is all it is in my opinion, talk. Let them take a cut to save a job for one family or more but don't hold your breath. You shall know them by their works, their deeds what they do, or fail to do as they shall know you the same.
 
I really do not care to go down the list of pages and pages and pages and words I have written  concerning this nations woes. Don't know my writing well just go back and read. Nothing against the writer at all but I don;t see the interest in a history lesson that many of you evidently need and yearn for as to why so and so didn't get the nomination, or what they did wrong in their campaign. Good reading perhaps but not to someone losing their home because of what these politicians have done or failed to do. Yes these same ones you read about, everyone of them as if they are quality leaders.  Where in the works, record, where? Oh it doen't matter you're a lifelong Republican or Democrat.  Oh is it race, gender or war record you like? Is that the hurt millions are going through more important? Oh and yes one can always expect to hear from  the ones who always throw out that a person should accept responsibility for their circumstances. Well what can anyone say about these types. It isn't worthy of a rebuttal.
  
So, why are we interested in these same ones who got us where we are, why? Rhetorically how can anyone be interested in them? Are we not better off that we do not have them and should we not be worried they will return to Congress? Why anyone is happy with them is beyond me?

No, if you do not know first hand, or recognize what is happening in this nation today, treat it as passing and do not know the impact to those all about you by now, you are, well sadly in my opinion lost, or part of the cause. You are an accomplice and you won't know until you are impacted and then you will moan about your circumstances. Hey don't like straight talk, well it is all part of this nations culture today. Lies, deceit, fabrication, omissions, redirection, ignoring, half truth, redirect, yes all part of who we are. It doesn't effect me so why worry? Well you better stop and take another look. You just might be part of the next 62,000 to get laid off and they just might have thought like you, that is last month.

So perhaps I am somewhat direct but please do not talk to me of honor when in my opinion there is no honor. Please do not talk to me about professing when the opposite of what many preach or profess is being done. No, please don't tell me these politicians are the instrument of change for good when they really by their own words do not care what average Americans want.
 
Don't know what I am talking about, well that sums it all up and I won't waste my breath again trying to explain it to you. Change they say, change what? In my opinion they have already changed our nation never to return to what it was. It is evident in my opinion they certainly have been by their works and deeds in what they have done or failed to do  the instrument for bad, destruction, for the pillage of our nation. It shows in their agencies, their organizations, their treaties, their trade deals, their managemnet of the war, Katrina, what they can or can't do for people. People, family  people who gets cut or eliminated first. Need one go on?

Yes they come to you in light with their goals hidden deep within. Just an opinion proved by history time and time again. Yet we, the cattle, the workers, the sheep are led to where they want us to go. Education, what, please where is the common sense, logic, reasoning?

Yes in my opinion it is no more then The facade and sham of help, the sin of sins in today's economy and it will most likely continue because those who vote for them  like what they do. As for the rest of us, the crushed, the beaten down, the maligned, the exploited just keep silent and stay out of their way. There are plenty of cardboard boxes to go around and hey they are still free, at least for now.

PS: No comments necessary you either agree or don't. If you agree you know and care so get out and change the lot of them, if you don't, well frankly nothing anyone can say could ever change your thinking, period. Harsh, sorry, forgive me but the plain truth. Go talk to someone hurting, perhaps your neighbor, then maybe the light will go on?

I hear you Mr. Melaccio, I use to criticize all of the bums in Washington. But I never done anything to help our ailing planet. I believe we are all guilty of indifference.

Thanks David. Yes it takes action by the people to make change. It is evident 50% of us like what is happening. The other 50% stay home and complain. Me and mine are voting down the line against any candidate that identifies themselves as a Republican or a Democrat., period. Best wishes.

I agree there are a lot of problems in this country, but consider this: The way to solve problems is to step forward as a leader, and help others create the country you want the United States to be. As I read your article, I felt you spraying your negative energy like a garden hose. As you complain, you are simply adding your weight to a sinking ship. The better way is to stand up with a smile and lead.

Larry I do sincerely appreciate your comments and opinion, but as I presume you do not know that I have been writing to these issues for years now even before they even became issues. That said I never ever write about something without proposing a suggestion for consideration. I have written to my representatives at the local, state and national levels presenting concepts, idea's, potential solutions and many have been accepted and utilized. I have written to other nations leaders and I have published in other venue's. Now I venture to say in my urgings I am leading people to take action, are you and how? Perhaps you can explain how you are spreading the positive helps while people are being exploited, forced from their homes, have no real help? Do we just condone and hope? I venture to ask how you can even say I for one am not taking action? I at least state my opinion openly for persons like you to counter and I do respect alternatives when presented with respect. Yes please tell us by what they have done or failed to do how you arrived at that opinion and why many should be of the same? I'm open for your feedback in an article and will certainly acknowledge if I am wrong. Respectfully.
