When I think of the possibilities that the next presidential race brings to the table I'm almost inclined to quit my job and join the majority living in a system of entitlement.  I really want to do the right thing and contribute my fair share to society but the more I give the more we give the more we suffer the consequences.  And now I hear rumblings of great change, taxing businesses, taxing the rich, raising fuel costs contributing to rising cost of goods and don't even mention the real estate business.  If I have to pay one more dime to support the entitled of the world I'm just not going to participate anymore, it's a shame too because I still have much to give.

Can we live in a socialist republic and still have the audacity to call ourselves a free society? I'm not so sure and I wonder if this country is headed in a direction that actually helps in the end.  You cannot strengthen the American dollar in the world by overtaxing the businesses that provide the jobs that keep the economy going.  Are we really arrogant enough to believe that our 1/16th of the worlds population really matters in a global market.  Are we really secure enough to believe that they won't opt to do things cheaper elsewhere, there's a whole world of consumers beyond our borders.

If you think I am in this world to pay for your cable tv when you are perfectly capable of working you my friend are mistaken.
