Letter To Our Elected Leaders/ Stop Playing Games With American Lives

With the financial cliff on the horizon, our elected leaders are busy calling each other names. One party blaming the other while the nation is at a standstill because of our leaders childish behavior. Most Americans have hand enough of this so called bickering and want something done. There are those who say, let the nation go over the financial cliff, without concern for its citizens. These leaders are wreak less, heartless, individuals and seem only concern about their own agenda. While they bicker in Washington, the stock market is at a stall, business are afraid to hire, consumers are afraid to spend money and the nation as a whole is shackled by these so called polices. This is a letter to our elected leaders,. Stop it with the name calling! Stop being concern with your own agenda, stop blaming each other and do what's right for America. Get a bill passed that each party can agree on ,so that the nation can move on.

Invest Now While The Rest Of America is in Fear

As an investor there are two times of the year when I really enjoy making money ,one is when the market is up and the other when the market is down. If you happen to be the type of investor who enjoys, short selling then when the market is low is the best time of the year to invest. The reasons for this is very simple, the media or other outlets drive the price of prime stocks very low. In some cases to the point that they become penny stocks or driven below their actual cash value. Which in turn can make them very affordable to an amateur or average investor. Buying the right stock at the right time at an very inexpensive price, could led to hugh profits. Also the risk of buying something proven is low, but the returns are potentially great. Stocks have been known to average over 400% in returns when the stock market is on an up swing. That is why professional investors always invest or buy while the rest of America is in fear. The old saying is buy as much as you can low, at a cheap or inexpensive price and when the market reaches its peaks, is when it the right time to sell. Invest now! Buy now! Because doing so could lead to hugh profits and also make you lots of money. Learn how to invest now and allow your money to work for you tomorrow.

The Neighborhood Nobody Knows Or Cares About

Imagine if you woke up or was born in a world that was always at war. Drive by shootings , mass murder, theft , rape and every crime known to man being committed on the daily basis. Imagine streets covered or littered with trash. Homes or apartment buildings infested with rats and roaches or abandon buildings being used as crack houses or whore houses used for prostitution. On every corner, there is a gang member, drug dealer or liquor store. Police only patrol or drive by only when a crime is being committed or when they need to meet their quotas while writing traffic tickets or citations. When a crime or a murder has been committed they come in large numbers and even if you haven't committed a crime, but fit the description,you will be face down or shackled by police like a criminal. In these neighborhoods, hoods, ghettos or trailer parks these things are normal. Its a normal thing for a child or an adult to witness a crime on a daily basis and no one is ever shocked when someone gets murdered. In fact in some neighborhoods when someone gets into a fight or even shot, all the people in the neighborhood comes out to watch like its an a event. To many who live there fighting, killing or murder is just like a sport. Thugs or so called gangsters brag or laugh about the crime to their family or friends. Some are so bold that they even post their crimes on Face book, Twitter and even You Tube.
Men or women drive by in their old school cars with twenty five or twenty six inch wheels, blaring their music sky high and walking around with expensive athletic shoes with their pants hanging down. Some do drugs in public or broad day light and commit their crimes for everyone to see. The good people who live there are in fear and helpless to do anything about it. Why? Because even when one makes a phone call to the local police station it could take hours before one makes an appearance. Many simply can't afford or don't have the resources to move out of the ghetto because of their income. In most of the homes there are single parent females or a rare male that's left alone to raise their children. Education is some cases are frowned on and for some children only the lure of making fast money as a drug dealer, rapper or criminal is in their future. Why? Because their father, mother and their family members grew up to be criminals or so called gangsters. Forget about what they see or hear on television because to some children its worlds away or a fantasy. Besides that, nobody in the outside world knows or cares about the ghetto. No one cares that everyday a young man, woman or child are being murdered or raped. In fact even though there is an election no candidate is speaking or trying to change the lives of the people in the ghetto. Its the neighborhoods that nobody knows or cares about and many want to know why? Write in , then express your thoughts, opinion or views on the subject.

Should These People Be Running Our Country?

With most Americans incomes declining and wealthy getting richer, there is a big divide in the country. The poor is getting poorer and the middle call is barely making it. While the rich are getting richer still trying to hold on to those tax rates that make them even richer. The question I have for the political elite, what makes you qualified to run our country? Most politicians are out of touch with the American public and don't really understand the needs of the average American citizen. None of them understand that most Americans, besides wanting a job would also like to be in the position to do something's as the rich or wealthy.  Now even in Washington there is a fight between those who would tax the wealthy and for those who would fight to keep the higher income brackets taxes low. It makes one want to ask during those political debates, who will fight for the poor and the middle class? Who will make sure that all Americans pay their fair share of taxes? Who will make sure that every American is covered by health care despite their income? Who will keep drugs off of our streets and keep all Americans safe? Who will make sure that every American gets a quality education and that the teachers that are teaching them are well paid? Who will make sure after our children graduate from college that there will be a well paying job waiting for them? And who will stand up to those who would jeopardize our freedoms, our religions or our individual needs? These are just some of the questions that many of average American citizens would like to be answered. But with weeks leading into the election,these questions hasn't been answered by any of none of those who may run our country. Should these people be running our country? You tell me.

Deja vu

If there is anything that people in the Gulf Coast community(Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida) have in common is that each of us know how to deal with storms. We all know what lines at gas stations look like at our local service stations, we know when its time to stock up on certain items like, bottled water, can goods, batteries, ice chest and most of us ,if can afford it always has a generator for electricity handy just in case the power goes out. We all expect our local grocery stores or hardware store shelves to be empty and we know that this time because of the latest storm people will be prepared or will take the proper precautions before the storm arrives.  Why? Because its just like Deja vu or the same thing that usually happens at this time year, when a tropical storm or hurricane arrives.
In my adult life, I had to deal at least with four hurricanes, Andrew 1992, Katrina and Rita 2005, then after that Gustav 2008. All of them had one thing in common, they were all very destructive and if you didn't heed the warnings from local or state media outlet then you did so at your own risk. The reason why is because I have seen the destruction first hand and know the power that most tropical or hurricanes wield. They are very powerful and have been known to kill or destroy everything in their path. My advice to anyone that reads this, if you happen to live in the effected areas, please heed the warnings from your local ,state, National Weather Service or media outlets. Remember this no material thing or possession is worth more than your life. Do what's necessary to protect your home, your family and if asked to evacuate by all means leave. Don't become the deja vu or the next victim to be reported on the local new station.

A Cry From The Middle Class And Poor

It a know fact that prices for just about everything has gone up, while income levels have gone down. These days every time you hear a politician speak, it always about cutting government programs, such as health care, social security, food stamp vouchers, hospitals and other programs that help most struggling Americans. There is also a call in some circles to cut education or training that may help many Americans educate themselves enough to earn a higher living. While its known that the nation as a whole can't afford to keep on spending money on certain government programs. The question comes to mind is, if not spend money to support the programs that help struggling Americans, then what can be done? Is cutting programs that help the poor or the needy the answer? And when these programs are cut or done away with, who will help the poor or Americas struggling middle class?
Many Americans today, are living one pay check to the next and many others don't have emergency cash or savings to sustain themselves if something bad happens. Also with the price of gas, food and many other vital goods going up many of them are having a hard time keeping up. It seems today, that many politicians don't care about the average American citizen and instead of coming up with solutions to help combat the problem, they instead call names. Democrats  and Republicans' listen up, there is a cry from Americas middle class and poor. Stop your bickering and show some real leadership and do what's right for America.
