There's nothing wrong with our life except that we buy anything and everything to keep up with the "Jones". Unemployment is minimal, considering the numbers of people choosing not to work, Pay is fairly decent, Gas high, but hey, we can't drill our way out, Right? The ability lacking is the ability to look at the pricey house, car, vacation and tell ourselves we neither need it not does it add to the long term health of our household. Ya see, I don't care that you can't control you're spending habits, as your toys come up for sale at bargain prices, me and mine will be happy to pay at our price. Isn't a free market economy, unlimited credit, and a society lacking in financial education a lovely thing? Truthfully speaking, Europe may be spending more per gallon, but the price includes heavy taxing to pay for free medical care, extended vacations, subsidized medications etc. Free ain't.

I think McCain is the right man to do that. Obama wants to replicate the Carter era ideas, they didn't work then and they won't work now. http://thenewconservatives.blogspot.com/ Good point this aren’t that bad, but we do need to get them turned around before they get that bad.

It would be amazing to see our economy rolling with our savings and little debt. That's why the public is ambivalent about government debt. Gov. Sanford talks about household budgets and living within our means. Most households don't budget or live within their means... so why would we hold our politicians accountable?
