A letter to Congress on the debt-ceiling crisis

Dear Sir/Madame:

It appears, as usual, that you don't care about the American people. Instead of resolving this country's issues, which has been going on for several decades, that you are more interested in fighting like a bunch of 2-year-olds over a toy than getting to the bottom of our economic crisis.

For too long all of you have had your hands in the pot and could care less if the people of this great country are starving in the streets. As long as you can continue to fill your coffers on the backs of hard-working Americans, you could care less.

It has been your greed and inefficiency that has caused this mess and instead of finding a solution, you won't compromise because you might lose out on some money, some place, somewhere.

Go ahead and print some more worthless money that is backed by nothing instead of taxing the rich an extra 1 or 2 %. It's perfectly fine to cut Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security for the people that have to decide whether to eat or buy medications. God forbid you can't get that extra vacation home in Paris.

The American people did not squander this country's money, you did; with your pork barrel projects and useless bail-outs. All you have done is make the rich people richer, including yourself.

Japan and China own most of the USA now; how proud of that are you? If they were to call in those notes, this country would be screwed!

Let's see; then the USA could be called Japina or how about Chinapan. Yeah, that sounds great. Just how long do you think you are going to hold your lofty position when they send their people over here to institute a new government regime?

If you thought the American Revolutionary War was bad, if you babies don't suck it up and put on your man pants and get over yourselves, that war will look like a day at Disney World by the time the American people, who are pissed off and fed up, get done with you and your sniveling cohorts.

Quit thinking raising the debt ceiling is the answer to our problems; it's not! Quit passing the buck on whose fault it is and get down to business using some common sense.

Get rid of the Federal Reserve, bring our corporations back to this country, bring our troops home, cut Defense spending and raise taxes on the disgustingly rich. What do we have to do, come to Washington and do your damn jobs for you?
