(1888PressRelease) March 07, 2011 - Save Our Nation - It's In Our Hands

Dear Fellow Americans,

As time goes by we sadly see how our nation travels at an incredible speed to impoverish the life of millions of Americans and debilitating our already weak economy. We've reached a point where we can no longer continue on our current direction, I believe we are heading into a crisis that will be far worse than anyone has yet realized. My main concern is how the common citizen will support their families and how small businesses, which are the backbone of our nation, will survive. To stop the enormous debt trend we must reduce the outrageous government spending immediately.

As I mentioned before, we the people must take the reins of our nation and our mistreated economy. We must go back to our founder father's convictions and elect honest and capable citizens with no alternate personal agendas to run our country. Our country owes $56 trillion in total debt, the majority to foreign investors. An astonishing $3.5 trillion each year is due just on interest, in simple words, it is more than the entire government average spending.

I am sure many of you don't know that since our government implemented Medicare/Medicaid in 1965, it has created a deficit of $5.6 trillion, an astonishing 40% of our government's total debt. If you could go back in time and erase these debts, adding the cost of two of the most recent foreign wars (Iraq/Afghanistan), and the incredible losses produced by the financial crisis, we could eliminate more than half our entire debt. This is a big example that shows that we need to reform our Medicare/Medicaid programs and make sure that the money goes were it is supposed to go, eliminating the massive fraud that has been happening in the past years.

Our country spends almost 800% more on its military, 200%-300% more per capita on health care than any other similarly wealthy country. Are we safer? Are we healthier? I honestly don't think so.

I believe we need to do important amendments to our Constitution, we should have a sound balanced budget, we should erase property taxes, limiting tax rates and other non-sense taxes, and we should increase sales and other luxurious taxes. We should all pay a fixed tax after a personal annual exemption with no deductions that way we could get rid of the IRS, the most hated agency in America. All of this and more will give our future government some leverage to control unfair taxes on our citizens.

Nobody can deny that both mayor parties, that have ruled our country in the last decades, haven't done what they are supposed to do in pro of our country because of their corrupt agendas and political compromises. Yes, the selfish vision of our politicians and individuals in key positions has created the chaos of today.

We all must understand that the main fault for this entire situation lays in all of us, for not using our good judgment in electing the officials that represented us and managed the destiny of our nation. It is also our duty to correct our mistakes and prevent all these politicians, with hidden personal agendas that betrayed our trust and the trust their positions represent, to continue pushing our country to the abyss.

It is time to do something that can only be resolved at the polls in a democratic way. Our future and the future of the generations to come are in our hands. Let's work together hand in hand to eradicate or at least mitigate the corruption and deficient management of our elected officials. Let's in union find new avenues to bring prosperity and dignity to our people.

I know I am not an experienced politician, nor have I ever held any official position. I have no more experience other than what life has taught me all these years. I would like to ask you, what good has brought to our country all these brilliant speakers, well educated and seasoned elected officials other than a big disappointment and disastrous economy? Not to mention all the enemies we gain daily around the world.

Don't you think it is time to have just normal and decent individuals with no hidden political agendas to run our country? Don't you think it is time to find persons that really care and love our country over their convenience and that will help us correct the mistakes of the past? Don't you think it is time to retake our values and recuperate our nation and give preference to our people, to our children, to our freedom? You don't need to be an exceptional thinker to realize that the only way to stop and correct our national situation is to bring good and honest people to our government.

I will do my best to bring prosperity to our country. I will listen to the opinion of any common citizen. I will reinstate the respect for our flag and all our national symbols. I will protect with my life, if necessary, the freedom and value of our nation. Save our nation, it's in our hands.

In God We Trust
