Most of all, be honest with yourself and make sure those in political office, our so called public servants, are being honest, holding them accountable for their actions!
Get off your bottom and be the stand, and do the work you can to pursue the American Dream for yourself, and help others to do the same.
Finger pointing never got anything done!
Elections do have consequences, and those we elect and far too often re-elect have forgotten how government works and for whom they work for, and that an ever growing, power hungry state and federal government are not the answer to the problem, but 80% of the time are the problem.
Be part of the solution and answer to the problem versus part of the problem and continuing argument around it.
