Politics

Blog post #272 of 365

Politics: The art or science of governing. Relations or conduct in a particular area of experience especially as seen or dealt with from a political point of view. (office politics.)

Nothing can be done. Our system is broken. Yes we have checks and balances but the truth is nobody listens to what the people want. The people and organizations/companies who have the money can push through whatever they want while we are burdened by their decisions.

For instance my son went to college and graduated. As he graduated the FAA changed to online applications system only but did not have a working website. Once the website is up and operational our dear president put on a hiring freeze and my son is about to age out of the job he worked so hard to achieve. Doesn't seem fair now does it?

How about adding insult to injury? The same son had his hours cut because the company he works for was mandated to offer insurance to any employees working 'full time' according to our new healthcare bill pushed through by the same president. They cut his hours and hired more people to cover the workload. We now have a country filled with people who are under employed under insured. Good work Mr. President.

Venting... I hate politics!
