People are loosing their jobs left and right and all we care about today is the inauguration. History in the making, while people in America are wondering where their next meal is coming from, or how their going to keep their kids warm tonight or worring about if they are going to have a roof over their heads tomorrow. By all means lets all watch and praise our new leader, who's going to work miracles in the upcoming months... Sorry to vent, but this is what I see... alot of money wasted....JMO |
I agree with you. This is a good day in history and all, but in our times right now, they are spending a RIDICULOUS amount of money on this. They are spending about 150 million on this when the other presidents only got a max of maybe 40 million. I've been thinking this for a couple days, but I just didn't want to start anything. I think Obama is great and I hope he does some good things, but I agree, people are losing homes and jobs left and right (my family is one of those cases and I'm trying to figure out how to buy food) and they are spending all that money that could go to the american people that really need it and could use it.
