Here we go with another political complaint

So here goes. Today I read about Harry Reid claiming that Mitt Romney didn't pay taxes for the last ten years. Reid claims that he is certain that this is true. My response would be that if Mr. Reid is so certain about this issue, that he should back up his assertion. Mr. Romney should tell Mr. Reid, if he shows his tax returns and they show that he has paid taxes in the past 10 years, the Mr. Reid will have to step down immediately. Since Mr. Reid is so certain about it, he would gladly accept this challenge. It would be interesting if more people in politics had the guts to call someone's bluff.

Should Detroit go bankrupt? Oh wait, they did.

I don't get too involved with Politics because it's just all a game. People do and say whatever they can to get elected, and if they are already elected, they do and say whatever they can to get re-elected. But here, if my beef for today.

"When the American auto industry was on the brink of collapse, and more than 1 million American jobs were on the line, Gov. Romney said we should just let Detroit go bankrupt," he said. "I refused to turn my back on communities like this one. I was betting on the American worker and I was betting on American industry. And three years later, the American auto industry is coming roaring back."

 But didn't Obama turn his back on that community and allow Detroit to declare bankruptcy?

 Then there is this article that I read where the President of the N.A.A.C.P. said, "people had heard Mr. Romney’s message on jobs and the economy and “it is not resonating with our base,” in part because talk of deregulation brings to mind Wall Street bailouts and how General Motors might have gone bankrupt if Mr. Romney had been in the White House."

 Might General Motors have gone bankrupt if Mr. Obama had been President? Oh wait, Mr. Obama was president, and GM did go bankrupt.

I am tired of hearing Obama brag about how he saved the auto industry. Do people not know that both GM and Chrysler declared bankruptcy? What fixed the car industry, was the car companies screwing over suppliers, bondholders, and other entities that were owed money. Through bankruptcy, GM and Chrysler cleared all their debt and were able to be profitable again. Exactly as Mr. Romney said they should do. It makes me angry every time I read an article that pretends like GM and Chrysler never declared bankruptcy.

My beef with Politics.

This is a real easy topic to complain about. Here I go, I can't stand politics. Obama has failed at creating jobs. Obama blames GOP for not passing jobs bill. Romney's Bain Capital responsible for job loss. These are some of the headlines I am sick of hearing about. Here is why.

First, the President of the United States has very small power in job creation or job destruction. They can adjust some regulations and move some money from one place to another, but in the end that doesn't change things very much. If the President had a clear way of making jobs, don't you think that Obama would have done it to make sure he is re-elected?

Second point, don't spend more then what you have. Everyone knows if you don't have the money, you don't buy it.

Another point on politics, that makes me sick. No one in politics actually mean what they say. They are all so full of themselves, and will say whatever it takes to get elected. Romney will do anything to get elected. Same thing for Obama. I just wish there was actual people saying what they truly believe. I mean, there are those type of people out there, but no one takes them seriously enough. (Ron Paul).

Lastly, there is no reason that someone should be in politics for longer then 8 years. All the senators and all the congress people should be limited. This will never happen, because in order for it to happen, you would need congress and the senate to pass a bill. Are they really go to pass a bill that gets rid of their own jobs? If I ever become a billionaire, I will take that money and get a petition started by the entire nation to make term limits for all elected officials.
