Comment on a colleague's work #2

I agree with the writer of “be the voice, NOT THE NOISE,” at http://igniteincite.blogspot.com money is spent so easily when it comes to the government. The economy is already in a trillion dollar national deficit, the stimulus package is not doing anything, but digging us in a deeper whole. The stimulus package is being a crutch for those that don’t work that hard. The little bit of money that they are borrowing, is not going to help to economy. People are still going to keep doing the same things as they have been doing as far as spending money. I totally agree that people are going to keep reaching out to the government to put money in there pockets. It is our tax dollars that is going towards Medicaid and helping those are not financially stable. But yet how many women put their selves in that position that get pregnant and can’t stand on there own, so we end up supporting them. The middle class is getting screwed we are paying for health insurance out of our own pockets and working hard for it. Yet, we are insuring others irresponsibility’s as well through our tax dollars. I can understand if someone can not work because of a disability, then by all means that helping hand is reasonable. If the so called lower class did not have that hand to lean, they would only be left with the choice to work for it. As far as Clinton and Obama, it is great that they want to help those in need. But sometimes simply not helping is a big step forward in the end for us as an economy and for that individual to stand on its own and take a step forward. Experience and hard work can only bring us forward as country. Sometimes that lending hand sets us farther back.
