Doing with less 2009

Doing with less 2009

Everyone is cutting back now a days to afford just to survive. City’s, States and companies are doing the same to stay in business.

People are asked to do with less and take a cut in pay. Working fewer hours no matter how you look at it is a cut in pay. Some of us are asked to except a lesser health plan. We as consumers are spending less which controls the stock market and that controls our retirement (pensions&401K’s).

Us who are getting closer to retirement can’t afford it now. We have to get jobs in Wal-Mart to supplement what we receive. Social Security is not nearly enough to live on and Medicaid does not cover all the medicine a lot of the seniors have to take.

We as a country could and should do better for our citizens.
Staring by cutting back on what we give the World Bank and other counties. Let’s keep some of our money right here in the USA where it belongs. Maybe then we could afford healthcare and other service that should have.

Last but not least I haven’t heard the people who run this country talking about cutting their pay or benefits. Lets start with our dear old President. Senators, Congressman all along down the line, lets give all of them the same healthcare the give have and us them pay into the Social Security fund. Have them play by the same rules we have to play by.
