American Economic Problem Is Presidential Issue

Recent polls are showing that the economy is the number one concerns for American voters, well it’s about time the pollsters get it right. However, anyone with a brain can see that as outsourcing and jobsourcing have increased the American economy has suffered. If we are not working we cannot afford to buy and if we don’t buy then who cares who cheaply something is being made elsewhere. It’s real simple, if you pay us to build it we can afford to buy it, if you don’t we can’t. Additionally, the economy is not slumping because of the housing problem in America, the housing problem is occurring because of the sagging job market in America. American politics have twisted this around but in reality the outsourcing of American jobs has created a devastated work force and a weakened consumer base. The next President needs to make sure he enacts legislation in the face of foreign lobbyists and show America the balls to put it back as the world’s economic leader and end this appearance of weakness and trepidation.

American voters should only vote for the President who will keep American jobs in America, be it through tax breaks, protectionism, or any other means. We need someone to stop the leak and also reverse the idiotic saying of there being jobs Americans won’t do, this just is not so, it’s Americans can’t find jobs.

Let’s get real here and quit the B-S’ng around, let’s get a real President in office who will put Americans back to work and not a coward who will say that outsourcing is a fact of life and we have to deal with it. Outsourcing is not working and furthermore it is devastating our economy and our future.

Let’s lock the borders down for protection and the jobs for our economic livelihood. It’s not American companies who outsource our jobs we need to support its American companies who keep their jobs in America, that’s who we need to support. Do not listen to the big business rhetoric that we have to adjust and accept outsourcing; they are just saying that to beat down your will, stand up and save your job and America’s economy.

It’s time we get our heads out of the sand and worry about our own country’s needs and not the Middle East. Make sure you only vote for the politician who said they will keep Americans working.

What are you doing to address this issue? What are you doing to make we only vote for the politician who says they will keep Americans working?
