Yes

It's easy to say yes, it's much harder to tell why. As further advancing in the current United States government policies it's no longer a mystery that we made it wrong since the beginning and still find it hard to admit this fact!

Neither Bush or Obama advanced the possibility of cuts to the US Army deployed Budget, for the most patriotic, counting myself, we should remember that the same country fighting to preserve its values is the one promoting for liberalism. We should now though one of the basics of liberalism is to cut with "stupid" expenses rather than fixing new income taxes. Unless we are out of our minds any person with a little sense of logical guidance can see that what the government is doing is totally controversial. I mean we are fighting for freedom, I'm O.K with that, on my paycheck since 2002 with a depression since 2008, should think twice.

Some decisions that should be made and can stop the leak under the current situation are: 

- Focusing on internal economy: We should do more to promote the locally built product no matter what field it came from. It's common knowledge that we are not up to local customers expectations when it comes to all what's related to technology anymore. It's today more easy for an American citizen to choose between Japanese brands for a TV purchase than a US and a Nippon one. Reducing a more distinguished gap on a day to day scale, of our products global competitive, can help us stopping the dollars loss of value.

- Stopping literally the fantasies of public jobs and services pushing again on little ages with new taxes. This absurd method that lasted since the Roosevelt government is no longer the panacea to economic recovery. Our last economic catastrophe is far deeper in many ways then the last century debuting one. We can't bound to it by putting more money in something already lost. It's like filling a glass of water that has a hole in it's end, it simply won't stop leaking! So either you fix the hole, by for example make no trillions aids to industry giants and instead make it a long-term, 25 years or above, public debt, or completely zap to an internally focused, at first, economical policy that's to strengthen what we do best.

I have a Master Degree in Finance and working today for a multinational in Software engineering company, I'm making a good living. What is really bothering that is those advanced opinions are shared by many of my colleagues some of them graduated in 2005 and still not working today. Imagine their anger when they know what's going on and how it's simply fixable and still should have to wait.
