Our Economy Will Get Worse Before it Gets Better

David C. Atkin
Our national debt sits at $12,677,595,560,331.37 according to the national debt clock. There are an estimated 308,072,282 people in this country right now; this puts each citizen's share at $41,151.57. The national debt has risen an average of $4.04 billion per day since September 28, 2007.

Every American wants politicians to work on jobs, and the economy before anything else. But they seem to think that it's more important to add this socialized health care plan to the national debt. Health care reform is something that every American knows we need, but fix the economy first.

I agree with what the economists in this country are saying; the economy will get much worse, before it gets better. With the national unemployment rate sitting at just above nine percent, most Americans just want to get back to work, but our elected officials don't care about that.

The health care reform plan will cost 1.6 trillion over a ten year time period. This is if you think that the congress add the numbers the right way; when was the last time they did that? We all know that they used a lot of smoke an mirrors to get this monstrosity ti pass in the first place.

Just consider that they will be adding two trillion over ten years, and now their looking forward to immigration reform. You know that this means at least billions of dollars, and every illegal in this country will get amnesty.

All of these things will hurt our economy rather then help it; this is why I say it will get much worse, before it gets better. I don't trust this congress to have the common sense to know, or even care what to to to help out country, they just don't care.

Why would the want to fix our economy, think back to a while ago when Obama was making a world tour to bad mouth our country. Bowing to the king of Arab, and apologizing for all of the horrible thing that our country to all of the rest of the world.

It's plain and simple to see that he doesn't like this country, so why would he try to save our economy. When he could just add a bunch of debt, and take our country to it's knees; that would make him look like a hero over seas.

China would love to be the superpower in the world, they would love to see this country take a dive. In my opinion Obama would love to see that happen also, the man can't even salute the flag during the pledge of allegiance.

You tell me; why should I think that he cares at all about this country. He got elected because he was gong to hand out a bunch of money to the people who what to be lazy. The people who aren't true Americans, the ones who are here for a handout.

It's those people who would not care if this country goes down in flames, as long as they get what they want. They only care about themselves, those people need to come to reality, there are no more handouts, no freebies, no giveaways.

If that is what your looking for, it's time to pack your things and move to a socialist country. This is not a socialist country, in this country we believe in the free market, not a market that is controlled by the corrupt politicians that put us in this situation.

The people in this country aren't here to grant your a living, neither is the federal government. If you want to be a bum; that is your choice, but the rest of us don't want to pay you to do it. Get off of your duff and do something for yourself.

I know that you beloved president Obama said that he would pass out those freebies, but it's not going to happen. If it does happen, I hope he gets impeached, we don't need any more debt. Entitlements and freebies create debt; social security is going out of business because it's not sustainable.

That alone should show you that socialism doesn't work. They should have never created social security. People should have been expected to build their own retirement fund. Then you'd never have worry that social security is going broke.

It's common sense; I'm sure that you grandpa told you at least one in you life, if you want something done right, you must do it yourself. This is still true to this day, if you do things for yourself, and don't expect that government to for you, it will always be done right.

As you think about the economy in our country, and the situation that it's in at the moment. Just think about one thing, if we didn't handout all of the entitlements, and freebies like we do now, thing could be very very different, and more then likely would be.
