I guess I’m feeling down because I don’t see much of a future for my family with the way this country is going . I worry about them all the time. I’ve never seen things go so bad so fast in this country and I’ve got nothing to protect them with. If Obama gets re elected, I don’t know what I’m going to do or where to go......

I can certainly understand that. I have no use for Romney, but I cannot imagine life in the USA in 2016 after 8 years of Obama. I also find the trends terrifying. With the exception of gun laws, almost every social issue I can think of is being lost. A culture of dependency, of entitlement, of spend now, of homosexual rights, transgender rights, soon to be pedophile rights, half the people in the country expecting the other half to pay their bills - it is scary. At 54, I may be old enough to die before the full bill comes due.
As individuals, all we can do is live our lives conservatively & follow the principles that have proven themselves over time. That gives us the best odds over the long run.
I’d love to go back to work, but the jobs I could find wouldn’t pay for my additional taxes and gas costs. And if I go back for another degree (a BS in Biology from 1979 isn’t going to get me anywhere), then I’ll be pushing 60...would anyone hire me?
A Romney victory won’t even gain me much on most issues I care about. He’s marginal on fiscal matters and worthless as teats on a boar hog on social issues. But he won’t push us into hell quite as fast as Obama will, and he might actually care about America...but what a miserable choice!
