Git ’er done
It doesn’t matter if you are Republican or Democrat. Stop acting like a little kid who says, “If you aren’t going to play my way, I am taking my ball and going home.”
It isn’t about politics; it is about economics.
All of you have spent too much with no way of repaying.
There needs to be drastic cuts in expenditures.
Entitlements have made too many people comfortable. Some people do need assistance, but they don’t need to be comfortable. If you are comfortable, there is no reason to get off the government gravy train.
Make government more efficient by reduction of duplicated government agencies. Maybe not less government or backpedaling, but more streamlined.
There is a need for more revenue (for the uninformed that means the dirty word “taxes”). That should mean everyone, not just a few. We are all in this together. We should not expect everyone, other than ourselves, to pay for your debts.
You all were elected to do a job. Stop worrying about getting re-elected and do the job you were sent to do. As Larry the Cable Guy always says, “Git ’er done!” or we may have to find someone that can.
