Frugal Dad | A frugal perspective on money, career and family
On "Fight for you"
Politicians like to tell us that they will “fight for us,” but how many of them really mean it in the same way members of our Armed Services fight for their country?
Standing in the halls of Congress delivering a tough speech is not the same as standing on top of an armored personnel carrier fending off enemies trying to kill you and everyone else inside. That’s a real fight. That’s life and death.
Shame on those who take our liberty for granted. Shame on those who pretend to uphold the values of our forefathers, and then undermine them at every vote. I will never believe my grandfather, and the millions like him, fought and died for nothing. I have always been proud to be an American, and always will be.
“I am an American” need not be stated apologetically, rather it should be exclaimed proudly. I hope the younger generations remember the lessons of that great generation, and carry them forward for us.

THE SHORT THAT GOT AWAY…. | Phil’s Stock World
THE SHORT THAT GOT AWAY…. | Phil’s Stock World
I have a hard time imagining a scenario in which the unemployment rate drops below 8% by 2012 (others are far more pessimistic). According to recent data from the CBO and BLS the United States will have to create 225,000 jobs per month just to get the unemployment rate down to 8% by summer of 2012. That’s a fairly optimistic figure considering the current predicament. When President Obama entered office the unemployment rate was 7.7%.
