Hey Mr. President, Congress, Senate

Mr. Obama, I would like to thank you and the rest of our government for taking all your time to finally decided to do something about the deficit. You all knew this was coming up and just decided to wait till the last couple of weeks to finally do something about it? A little risky, don't you think? Then I hear that some don't want to raise taxes on the rich, unless you all there on capitol hill would be included in that bracket as well, because they are the ones that are going to be creating jobs. I really hate to tell you this, but the rich are only for themselves. If they are the ones that are going to be creating jobs, I sure as hell do not see if where I live. I only see the rich getting richer, the poor and unemployed getting poorer. So if that is the way many are thinking, I think its time for you all, President, congress, senate, to go out, find a family to live with for a week that are trying to make ends meet and failing.

You want to know where much of the money is going in this country? Look over seas to a war that should have been ended many years ago, not just now thinking about it 10 years later to bring troops home. How much of the money spent just on that war, could have gone to helping people here that really need it. How much of that money spent could have created many jobs across the country to help all unemployed people either get training or find jobs. Just doing something about it now is almost a waste and throwing it into the public's faces. Might as well just keep the troops there and waste more money. That is one thing this country is really good at, wasting the tax payer's money. Try putting things to a vote and see how many people think we should get into a war or a place we have no business, before putting us there and keeping the up-heavel going with countries that already think the USA is stupid.

Do any of you REALLY know the public opinion out here or are you going only on "speculation" like with the fuel and economy. Get out there, talk to the "average" person and really find out what people think across the country, not just in one area or just some of the people. Hold an open forum somehow to let the people finally speak instead of keeping your heads down and not knowing what is going on out here.

"We the People" are not happy and losing ground on a daily basis without help and none in sight. If you all really want to help, and be the "Government for the People", then DO something good for all people. Not just the rich, they need more taxes becaue they are the ones with the money and can afford the taxes, or would those rich include all of you as well. Is that why they are fighting no more taxes for the rich? Big corporations need more taxes to, again because they have the money to pay it. Gas and oil companies just need to stop being so greedy and out for themselves and their families, cause there are families out here that have nothing right now.

Want to make people like you more? Come to a home where people are struggling to feed themselves and live with them for a week. Remember where you came from, all of you, unless you were all brought up in a rich family. If not, remember to when maybe your family or someone you know what struggling with finances, food, etc. Just remember all of them, then maybe you will know what its like. But, somehow, I doubt any of you would actually do that, because you want to stay blind to things, only what you can see, the rich, big corporations, your wars. Oh well, it doesn't matter, all of us will be the ones to lose in the end as usual.
