The sad reality of our Congress and other elected officials, is that we are dealing with a group of people who are doing what is best for themselves. They are building into legislation outrageous sums of money to bring back to their home state. It is disgusting that instead of working for the good of this country, they work for the good of themselves. I find it hard to believe that the two billion dollars that is making it's way to Kentucky did not come from Senator McConnell, who is up for re-election in 2014. I guess is it a good thing he got something to bring back to Kentucky after the debacle of the government shut down. This whole fight that led to the shut down started because of Obamacare. While I am deeply disappointed that my government is going to fine me if I do not have health insurance, I would be less upset if everyone had to live under the same law. It is not fair that the average citizen is being forced to purchase something, while some legislators and the President are exempt. Especially when some men and women are being forced out of their employer insurance because the company can no longer afford it. I even have friends who work hard at a minimum wage job, without taking handouts, who are going to have their hours cut. This is going to force them to find another part-time job to make ends meet giving them less time to spend in the home raising their children. We are continuing to find ways to destroy the family.
I was proud to see Senator Ted Cruz stand up against Congress. He told his constituents what he planned to do when he got elected into office and that is exactly what he has done. The government shut down did affect some people, but it was necessary. I cannot believe the spineless men and women who have been elected into office. We continue to elect these people time and time again and it is running this country into the ground. We continue to raise the debt limit, grow our spending, and take away the rights and privacy's of the American people. This is the country we are now living in. We are continuing to lose our freedoms daily, we need to wake up! We need to fight to take our states back. I will spend every election season working to elect conservative men and women in my state and fight to take my Constitutional freedoms back! It is more important today than ever to stand up for what is right and for what our Founding Fathers fought to give to us.
