Up to us
To the editor:
Your home is a business. You have contracts, taxes and a budget. If our leaders would have taken the $787 billion of stimulus money and divided it among everyone who paid taxes, there would have been a new car in your driveway, a new roof on your house, and everyone could have made their house payment.
There wouldn’t have been any $400 million retreats or million-dollar bonuses. What is being done is wrong. Nothing will change until we all call someone and scream at them. We all need to stop saying the government this or that. We are the government. It is our tax dollars being spent. We all need to wake up and do something.
