You couldn’t be any more spot on with your comments.
Living in what has now become the welfare capital of America. Cuyahoga County. if you look at some of the local/state issues you wouldn’t be suprised.
Somehow, Dennis Kucinich wins his Congressional seat. AGAIN.
Attorney General Marc Dann’s replacement, Richard Courdray is winning by something like 85-15. Again, Dann resigned his position in disgrace but it didn’t matter.
Another attempt to get casinos in Ohio failed again. Why, because adding 10,000 jobs gives the opportunity to take 10,000 people off of welfare. But in the welfare capital of America, where everyday is the weekend, that couldn’t be allowed to happen.
2 out of 3 Cuyahoga County commissoners are involved in a federal investigation. The one who isn’t involved, Peter Lawson Jones, is beating his Republician opponent 65%-35%.. It really doesn’t matter that Cuyahoga County spent 45% of our local tax dollars on entitlements, and that 1 in 3 working aged residents get some kind of taxpayer funded support.
I could go on, OK, I will. The last time Cleveland was any good. Where jobs were good paying and weekends only lasted 2 days, and where maybe 10% of residents were paid not to work, a fella by the name of George Vonivich was mayor. That was 1981.
Since, with more than 25 years of complete Democratic control we see what has happened. I owning a grocery store am on the frontlines. I know who works and who doesn’t. If I dare try to tell one of them to work. I get laughed at. And if I try to make issue of it to any leaders, it is dismissed as me not being knowledable of the situation.
Then there are the having kids to get more money crowd. We are very proud of having a 17 year old mother of SEVEN living in our county. See it makes to much sense for the school leaders to go into the schools and tell the kids, if you have a child we’re done taking care of them. But no, generation after generation of welfarers go unchecked, and then the eldest get Social Security that they didn’t even fund with their own tax dollars.
Meanwhile those of us who still work see more taken away from us. It has to stop sometime. But tonight didn’t provide that opportunity.
Pray very hard for America. We really need it now!
Especially those who are going to be on the ground as Obama pulls the troops out of Iraq.
Yours is a tale of woe and sorrow.
