Dear Mr. Boehner, Mr. Obama, Ms. Pelosi and the rest of our nation's leaders within the Beltway:
The rest of us living outside the beltway are sick and tired of the posturing, the "politics," press conferences and pronouncements. We have two words for you.... STOP IT !!!!!!!!
Children play "chicken" and "king of the hill," not grown-ups.
Every one has to give a little, every one has to give up something. Many people I talk with of many generations and philosophical persuasions are reminded that the reason for government includes "promoting the common good."
It's the little guy and gal that get hurt by the games.
The real persons carrying the bulk of the tax burden are those in the middle class and the upper lower class. I didn't say the bulk of taxes (although it has become that.) They are the ones for whom taxes have become such a burden that "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" are eroding away into simple economic survival and there are not enough powerball jackpots to reverse that reality.
Stop holding us hostage to the "games."
Perhaps you need to remember a few words from the Lord. "Love your neighbor as yourself."
Do not take us over the cliff - any of us.
