GOP quick to speak on behalf of American public but refuses to listen

Before President Obama could meet with the Republican, they met and decided not to assist this president with anything and this was shortly after he had been inaugurated.  From day one it was apparent that nothing this president supported would receive any embarrass from the GOP.  They had a pretty good argument in the beginning when they were asking the question of how the policies this president wanted would be paid for.

That argument is no longer valid and it seems that many looking on have figured that out except for those in the position to make life better for those they were set to serve.  They then created the myth that the 1% or job creators were against paying a little more in taxes and it was their job to protect business from being gouged by this administration.  Even though polls overwhelmingly showed that the majority was in favor of what the president was proposing, the GOP still leaned on the premise that taxes should not be raised in a recession.

That argument had merit but not anymore.  Not much has been made about the poll recently reported where over 60% of the 1% has asked to have their taxes raised to help this economy.  They have realized that demand is down because the middle class and poor have very little if any money to spend.  They have learned that if they want their products to move off the shelf, many more people need to be working.  They have learned that only by them sacrificing a little more to taxes would benefit not only those consumers itching to buy but their bottom line by having more people buying.

Now what excuse will the GOP use to not help govern, only God knows but whatever it may be, voters owe it to their children’s future and to themselves to hold them accountable for not governing.  They also need to look strongly at those Democrats and Independents who are standing in the way as well.
