I think there are serious problems on both sides of the political issues. Being a business owner, 10 years running currently, and an investment broker for 10 years prior, I know there is hugh greed and unfortunately our culture has turn very materialistic. Instead of caring about people, we care about what we can accumulate. On the other side, I do a lot of social work and I have seen first hand that some people use and abuse the system, but this is the minority, maybe 5% at most. The problem with the democrat system of more big government is the hugh waste of money used up to run the programs rather than getting to the hands of those who really need the assistence. The pork barrel stuff going through is a joke along with alot of spending programs that need serious reform. Yeah I know we are blowing through billions on the war but our country has done this in the past an again, I think we will come out of it OK. Less government is the answer IMHO. I think the flat tax is a good idea and get rid of all the loop holes. We are all americans and those with more, should help out those with less. Both parties have good ideas, but both parties also have some serious problems. I will vote for Bush because I think it is best for the overall country. I will also continue to go to the urban areas and work in soup kitchens, overnight shelters and fight for social justice. Maybe I am wrong but I would like to know how many democrats truly understand business and the economy. How many republicans have any idea what life is like for those who have nothing. The election for president seems to have split the country into two, more so each election. Is there any relation to the haves having more vs. the have nots having less? The rich get richer and the poor get poorer? and so on.
