As the whole economic "crisis" unfolds, and we Americans watch and listen diligently, it is our duty to call out those in the political realm who do not uphold party ideals, especially American dreams. The following is an email I sent to Senator Bob Bennett after hearing of his position on the Bailout legislation.
Senator,
I heard about your phone call from the concerned new car dealer, who most likely wouldn't continue to get short term bank loans to pay his employees. I find it appalling that you think this person needs help with the "bailout". This man chooses to take loans to pay his people instead of cutting back on his paycheck. And if he can't get these loans? His business will not go under. No car manufacturer would ever let a dealership fold; it would be bad for business. This dealership will be sold. The owner will make out with millions, while he was part of the problem. Business owners who cannot fiscally run their company will lose their holdings to those who are responsible. It is not MY duty to give this man help; nor is it yours. You were elected by a process that is meant to be democratic. You were not put in office because you know better than the people. You were elected because the people felt you were the choice that would put their views into vote. Our financial system needs new laws, and old laws reinstated, to be fixed, not taxpayer money. The greediness of the rich has broken the system, and now asks the middle and lower classes to pay the consequences.
America is great because of her people, not her government. You ran for the Republican party, won a Republican seat, and now act as a Democrat in sheep's clothing. Do not change our forefathers' dreams of a free people to those of socialism.
Do not sit and let our elected officials lead us down a path of destruction. We have sat by too many times and have gone so very far on this journey. Now is the time to stand, and voice your opinion, and make it be heard. America is WE the people, BY the people, FOR the people.
