Just who is looking after the country?

Who is looking after the country?

Despite the rosy economic picture we are painted these days, the economy is running on fumes. Big business, with our high tax rates, overregulation, and union-driven labor costs, has moved manufacturing overseas and continues to hold trillions offshore. Small business has been under attack from taxes and new regulations at banks. The IRS is now a hammer for the White House’s agenda .The futile attempt to develop alternate energy while stifling fossil-sourced power has been a catastrophe. The national debt is ignored and threatens our solvency and security.
