Thursday Outlook: Crude Awakening

Is it my imagination or have we lost America? We seem to drift aimlessly searching for solutions to our issues and yet we are supposedly the society of the entrepreneur. In order to "put food on the table and pay bills" as David so eloquently states it, we have to do the hard thing and start making changes ourselves. It begins by applying pressure upon our governmental representatives and subsequently standing up and DEMANDING change. If we work as a cohesive group to force those we hire to represent us to actively work together to reach a solution we will succeed. Otherwise, we will continue to have this conversation forever.

Thursday Outlook: Crude Awakening

Your "ranting" sounds an awful lot like the rest of us David. The most frustrating issue of all is the fact no matter how loud we complain, the idiots in Washington JUST DON'T GET IT. It won't matter who we elect this fall; every one of them (I'm including presidential and congressional candidates here) is truly clueless and would rather pander to the special interest groups then look at some of the viable options you noted above.

Maybe you could run for President!! Fry in 2012!

Hardball in Vallejo, California

I'd like to see the state of Michigan forced to declare bankruptcy. The combination of legislative democratic bureaucrats intent upon taxing its citizens and businesses to ruination, teacher and labor unions who do everything they can to prevent any right to work mandates from passing congress, and the failing domestic automotive industry, are combining to sink this state faster then AIG's stock price. By forcing the state into bankruptcy, maybe we could finally force well past due changes to take place here.
