Obama, No. McCain, No - The Undecided Voter Project (sitios de interés)
Descripción del sitio
I am undecided in Ohio for the reasons listed below. I’ve provided the reasons not to vote for each candidate in alphabetical order…
Why not McCain?
Iraq always was and still is a debacle and he supported it. $10 billion dollars a month in expenses is a complete waste with absolutely no hope of return on the investment. If Iraq is not the worst decision ever, it is the penultimate (no, it is the worst). The McCain rhetoric on Iran scares me as hawkish and is leading to a complete repeat of Iraq. Not only can our economy not support another war (how many countries are there in the Middle East? Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, etc…), but over four thousand Americans will never return home. Does anything justify this loss of life?
I don’t think Sarah Palin is qualified to be president and McCain is the oldest president to be elected. I’ll leave it at that.
Why not Obama?
How well does the federal government manage Medicare and Social Security? And Obama thinks that nationalizing health care is a good idea? (please read that question with sarcasm) Our federal government’s budget is on track to have every tax dollar collected pay only for two programs: Medicare and Social Security; no national defense, no infrastructure, no interior. Obviously, entitlement programs are necessary to a certain degree, but guaranteeing health care to everyone is not fiscally possible in the long term. Nothing will bankrupt our country as fast as more entitlements.
I run a small business with 10 employees and many subcontractors: I provide jobs in this economy. However, under the Obama tax plan, my business doesn’t qualify as a “small business”. The last thing I need right now is more taxes. I could hire more people if there were a tax break to true small businesses, not just those with less than an incredibly small earnings number.
Overall
Our country is $10,000,000,000,000 in debt…those zeroes took a while to type. It is absolutely necessary that we need a fiscally responsible president to avoid bankruptcy as a country. Fiscal concerns aside, our country cannot survive another hawk.
Thanks for reading. I hope the best for America in these tough times.
