Democratic National Committee Chair, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, could come to rue the day that she uttered the words, "We own the economy."

But, it IS about time that this administration stopped blaming the last over-spending president and started admitting this current mess is theirs. 

U.S. satisfaction has dipped from a low of 26% at the beginning of May to an even lower 20% the beginning of June, according to Gallup.

70% of people polled recently said that they've been affected "a great deal" or "quite a bit" by higher energy and food prices, stagnant wages, unemployment, falling home values or a combination of a few of these items. 

That's what you own, Debbie.

But the scariest number in all the recent surveys is, hands down, that 51% of people polled said that the government should be doing more to help people and solve problems. 

WHAT???!

Hasn't the government done enough to prolong this malaise without gumming up the works even more? 

Want to fix the economy?

Well, here's how you do it.

Turn this country back to the productive people.

Unshackle them from too much regulation.  Get rid of duplicate governmental agencies.

Get rid of sweetheart tax breaks for individuals and corporations by creating a FLAT TAX without loopholes so that we all pay truly OUR FAIR SHARE. 

We are still the greatest country in the world.

We've just lost our individual resolve over the past hundred years. 

But, we CAN take back what we had and what will sustain us going forward: American ingenuity.

American ingenuity does NOT emanate from the government.  It resides in the individual heart and soul of each one of us.  It¹s the ability to try and fail WITHOUT government intervention and WITHOUT bailouts. 

It emanates from Main Street NOT Pennsylvania Avenue...and it emanates from your home and ours.

So let's get cracking!

We agree it isn't going to be easy to dig ourselves out from under the dirt that we've allowed our elected officials to bury us in, but it CAN be done.

It MUST be done.

What do YOU think?!?
