When will they address the real concerns of the people?

Where is the focus we need to bring our nation back to its feet? All I hear is rants and cries that we are doomed because we are not thrifty enough and that for that reason God has deserted us.

I ask you - does God really care about our financial status? I know something about the bible and I'm trying as hard as I can to reference where God brought down his wrath on people for overspending. For greed yes, vanity yes, and bearing false witness, yes, but nothing about not being thrifty.

We must ask ourselves - do we wish to return to the 1600’s when, under the guise of religion, they stole property and put innocent men and women to death? That is what happened in Salem - or has that part of history been rewritten also?

Today we hear talk that gays are barbarians. People who are worked up by the rhetoric from religious fearful have gone live to broadcast this lie nationwide. The result of this has been the murders of US citizens because of who they are. Every day we are bombarded by those seeking office about how the pains of this nation are to be put at the feet of this group or that group. I only hear blame being laid down but never any true remedies to bring us out of this situation we're in.

When will people realize that playing the blame game does absolutely nothing to fix the issues? We can only correct the problems before us by coming together and working with each other, not against each other.

We can remain divided while the greed masters worm themselves even deeper into the fabric of our government or we can work together to release that which we need to unweave from the fabric and remove the defective section.
