It's an election year (for those who haven't noticed yet). The idiot brigade is out in full force. I can honestly say that in my 45 (almost 46) years on this planet, I have never seen a more disappointing group of Presidential wannabes. The GOP hopefuls are, if nothing else, a hateful bunch! They just seem to hate everyone and everything that isn't rich, white,Christian and conservative like them. Now here's my question:
How will all of that hate actually HELP the USA?
Think about it. Allow me to give some examples:
How will banning gay marriage actually HELP the country? Will it put food on any one's table? Will it create any jobs? Will it end wars? Will it fix the economy? Will it lower taxes or gas prices?
How will providing the same, if not more, tax breaks for the richest 1% of Americans actually HELP the country? If these same rich folks haven't created any new jobs by now, they're probably not going to.
These are just two examples...and I'll admit, they're the types of issues candidates like to rant about because they are emotionally charged. But take the question "How will ________ actually HELP our country?" and apply it to each rambling sentence coming out of each candidate's mouth. If you're lucky enough to actually get to speak to a candidate, ask them in person. I'm pretty sure you won't get an answer.
Just something to think about.
