I Am American And Love My Country

[b][center]For those of you who will vote for Clinton because you like the status quo....Let's review what the status quo really is:[/center][/b]

I'm an American citizen that sees her country in decline.

I care about 95 million Americans out of the labor force

50 million Americans in Poverty

46 million Americans on Food Stamps, 12 million more than 8 years ago.

I care that we have the lowest home ownership in 51 years and the worst recovery since the 1940's and the record debt left to our children

Accumulating more debt than the last 3 presidents combined.

50% unemployment rate among black teenagers

58% increase in the number of blacks on food stamps in the last 8 years.

20% of blacks out of the labor force.

I care that the average family seeing a $4000. increase in healthcare cost while medium household income is in decline in he last 8 years.

Taking in refugees when we know that ISIS will infiltrate the population.

National security on open borders.

Illegal immigrants competing with the 95 million American's looking for jobs while driving down wages.

Iran getting a nuclear weapon

The money obama and Clinton supported giving to Iran

The growth of ISIS in Irag, Serbia, Libya, N. Africa and all over Europe.

A president that can't say the word "Radical Islam

Smile, you are 100% right. The basic issue is in whom do you want power invested? One one side there is government (public sector) and on the other it is private individuals and business (private sector).

High tax rates, and our corporate taxes are at the highest in the world with France, and a multitude of regulation invest power in the hands of government. This is what we've seen for the past 8 years. High taxes take money from individuals and businesses and transfer it to government. The result has been very high unemployment and per capital income declines.

With more money to spend, government can expand social programs.
