And what has 2011 meant to the United States
Well it was all about the economy and of course, politics.
2011 was the year, I think, that the economy started to get
better with the unemployment rate starting to drop and the American public’s
confidence started to go up. I just hope I am right.
In 2011 we became painfully aware that we have a broken
political system and that our elected officials are not the good
representatives of our welfare as we have always imagined; they are selfish
representatives of themselves, willing to do anything to stay elected (not all,
but many).
The GOP race for the presidential nomination has clearly
shown us how absurd and downright stupid some of the people are that are trying
to achieve this nation’s highest office…something needs to change fast…
The TEA PARTY was invented in 2011. Obnoxious people that
had some good ideas about fixing our economy but could not hide their
fundamentalist, regressive views on social issues.
I think it must be time for a viable third party in our political system...
Unfortunately, economic issues and our disjointed political
system will follow us into 2012.
