The older I get the more I do not understand the world. Did I just not notice things or did awareness come with age? The more I see, the less I like the way the world is going. My mind replays the carefree times of years ago. I am not talking about 50 years ago, I am talking about 5-10 years ago. I know things were not that carefree, but humor me. Every generation has it's times of unrest, but recently it has gotten out of hand. Our weekly gas prices are more than some minimum wage earners salaries. Everyone complains but no one does anything. Do we just not know what to do? Does America need guidelines to rally together and show that we do not like the way things are. I have always joked that if 3 middle income housewives got together and went over the nations budget, they would balance the books in no time. The way they run their household, is the way they would run our economy. Look for the best price's for the best quality goods. Work within the allowance they have set aside. If you can't afford it, do not buy it. We all know that if you take out a loan it has to be repaid. If you can't repay it don't put yourself in debt! Our politicians have no ramifications for their actions. They do what ever they want and get away with it. Then they claim ignorance. How does a political figure "not know" that they have to pay taxes? Or have legal nannies? Blaming your accountant or lawyer just goes so far. We live in a world where a celebrity can have multiple offenses and get minimal jail time, if any, but if a police officer looks at a criminal the wrong way, civil liberties demands justice. I just don't get it.....................
