Does anyone wonder where we will be in one year, two years, five years. I am normally an optimistic person, but unfortunately the last year or so I find that I'm not that person anymore. The people who call themselves politicians have made me feel this way. Just about everyone of them do not see themselves as our representatives. They're only in politics for their own gain. I don't hate our presidents, present or former, but they have let us down by having their own agenda. People will now be rewarded for doing the wrong thing, like not paying their mortgage so the government will bail them out. The rest of us who pay what we owe won't get rewarded. People will now be given money to buy houses, while the rest of us struggled to save and buy our houses. CEOs are rewarded with huge bonuses for doing the wrong thing. Politicians are rewarded by re-election when they do the wrong things, while we lose our jobs for doing the right things. I want to believe things will get better, but I don't know.
