Two-party system causes gridlock; vote out lawyers, install business people

The toilet is about to be flushed. We, the hard-working taxpayers or seniors who have paid dearly for many years, are floating around in the bottom of the toilet. The majority of our citizens and non-citizens are swimming around above us living off of government entitlements and we are supporting them. Got the picture?

Now, the government debt has reached over $19 trillion. According to some financial wizards, our national debt will exceed $24 trillion before Washington puts the brakes on spending. Some blame the Democrats and some blame the Republicans.

If you had a couple million dollars and wanted to start a business and you wanted someone to run your business, who would you hire? A. attorney, B. football coach. C. successful honest businessman with financial and leadership qualities, or D. Nancy Pelosi.

We have been voting for lawyers for years because they are usually the only people who run for political positions in Washington. Please read "Extortion," by Peter Schweizer, a great non-fiction book. It will open your eyes.

The two-party system causes gridlock unless we use business sense. Our government is a large business, too large. Lawyers didn't obtain an education in business, so how would they know how to solve money problems?

The laws Washington changes, are for their own good, not yours. How do we get rid of the lawyers in Washington? Don't re-elect the ones presently there and let them know your vote is going elsewhere now! Demand changes in our political election system.

One more book to read now is "God Less America" by Todd Starnes. Let's end the toilet bowl.
