Money for Education!


There's millions of people in this country who doesn't have a simple high school diploma or start of finish college due to financial difficulties. But our government doesn't do anything to protect our future generation or the future of America. The government needs to do something to keep this people stay in school or get some sort of educational diploma. College tuition this days are only going up, not down even thought the market is going down by the day. Working class families tends to receive more aid than upper class people, but even with aid it is still very difficult to send a child to college. Education is something everyone should have and should not take for granted if it was offered it to them, but receiving and education should not scare people of being in debt because that is exactly what is happening. After getting out of college people are in debt for thousands of dollars, which takes years to pay back fully: not to mansion the interest. The government has money to spare, but it's not. Instead they're using our money to send it over the sea and spending it on useless things.

Tax Cut???


Tax cut, that sounds like a relief, rite? Not! Well Yes, but that is only if you are making millions a year. But as for us, the working class or the middle class the good news is just not happening. The Bushe's administration had decided to cut taxes for the wealthy people. "Reward wealthy Americans and Republicans's party supporters at the expense of the poor and the middle class. the wealthiest American's barely make up 1% of the U.S. taxpayers population, how ever they earn about $25.4 billion total of dividend for U.S. taxpayers money. So basically if I understand the concept correctly, we are paying rich people to get even richer by the year, despite the fact that they make more money thatn us and they only make up about 1% of the population. And yet they take back almost 25% of the money in tax return. According to the Bushes administration the tax cut for the wealthy suppose to help us some how. Not exactly sure how, but over all it suppose to help us! I mean the basic math would be, if no money is coming up but the money is going out, that would be putting us in debt, but in this case more money would going out of our pocket.

Veterans


Veterans who came back from the war on Iraq deserves to receive some extra care or better recognization. After all they are out heros and fighting a war whic has no purpose behind it, as far as i as know. So how is it that when they come back, but they are not receiving any special help or funding? the repunblicans believes that a "troop funding bill should fund the troops only, not the Veterans" said by John Beohner, according to the N.Y.Times. they believe in a war but not willing to support the people who are actually fighting the in the war. that is a bit hypocretical in my taste. But dispite it all, a bill was passed for the amount of "$52 billion over the next 10 years". Which is almost little less than 3 months worth of money being spent in the war on Iraq as we speak. But the $52 billion will serve our service mens for a decade after they come back, much better way of spending than to spend it all over 3 months, if you ask me. So why is there a hesitation about this topic when more should be done for them regardless!!!!
