Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Slow Down

The third and final presidential debate was laced with talk of "Joe the Plumber." Joe is a middle class working man from Ohio that is just like the normal average American. Barack Obama supposedly wants to look out for these people and help them as much as he can, but as whose expense? He wants to raise taxes for the wealthier Americans and small businesses to make up for the loss. He even said "I think that when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody." Redistribution of wealth? Isn't that socialism? The government is taking more of someone's money and giving it to someone else. In essence isn't that what socialism is? Are we giong to let this happen? With Obama leading in the polls by a significant margin this close to election day it looks like we will. Unfortunately for the American people you are now discouraged from living the dream and making lots of money. Wouldn't you rather rise up the economic ladder adn eventually make more money? Of course you would, but Barack Obama has a different idea.

Should we Really?

Reports have come out recently that the Republican National Committee spent $150,000 on Sarah Palin's wardrobe jewelry etc. So? Shouldn't we be happy that someone who is not a millionaire is running for the second highest office in the country? She is a smart and capable person but is it bad that she does not have the money to spend on things like this? Isn't this saying that she is like us? She will certainly be more in touch with the middle class than any of the other candidates. She has been living a life closer to that of the majority of Americans than Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and yes even John McCain. She is a great asset to the GOP ticket and she adds insight. So should we really care that the RNC spent a great deal of money on our Vice Presidential candidate? The answer: no.
