So much going on in the world, everyone complaining about bail outs and who will pay. Yes, other countries in need and asking for bailouts can our government afford this helping others who will this effect? All these budget cuts is effecting many Americans with health care budget cuts and now Social Security. People on disabilities with children are barely getting by. So many people hurting and barely making ends meet.Even our American soldiers will be effected by all these budget cuts. I clearly understand my father served his country, was hurt while in training, and never received a cent.

Congress let's focus on what's going on in our country and not in other countries. Let's bail out American citizens. This is why so many protesters are finally speaking. We, the people, can make a difference. Let's vote people in office that will hear our cries and complaints. For years I've exercised our First Amendment freedom of speech. Our children are the future. They will suffer our government decisions.
