So long 2010

Today marks the last day of what, if true Americans write the history books, will be billed as the sorriest year in American History. The worst congress ever, the 111th, led by Nancy P Lousy is over now. Tomorrow ushers in a year of hope.
Whether our nation has survived remains in question. A lot of damage was done by the democrat communist machine, worst of all was the ballooning debt to communist China. Unless our industrial might can be restarted, the mounting debt will collapse us.
One step we need to make is requiring every person collecting unemplyment to perform twenty hours of community service per week every week after week twenty. That would accommplish two things. 1. Encourage them to get off their butts and look for work. 2. Support infastructure needs which would lower taxes and utility rates. The key is to limit where they can perform their service to agencies that are tax funded.
Our presnt system sucks. Unemployment insurance is just another tax. After two or three years the money is passed to the state coffers. A person who works continuously for twenty years gets no more benefit then one who works two.
What we need now is real change, not a change in our belief system.
