Needed changes

When you are past 50 years old and you have chest pains so bad they are scary, but you refuse to go to a doctor because it may take the roof from over your head or food from your grandchildren, something needs to be done.

When you have worked hard your whole life and would rather die than to seek outrageous health care costs, something needs to be done.

When a bank won't loan you money when you have never missed a payment in your life, something needs to be done.

When you worry about unemployment and keep buying everything made in China, something needs to be done.

When you listen to Democrats and Republicans snipe at each other while accomplishing nothing, something needs to be done.

When they say "No new taxes" and double the price of tags, licenses and other fees, something needs to be done.

When someone is injured at work and a lawyer winds up with 10 times what the injured party does, something needs to be done.

When it takes 500 pages of fine print to say how the insurance company will not pay what it says on the policy, Ssomething needs to be done.

I am not a genius but I do have common sense. That tells me we need to stop the two party systems, stop lobbying, install term limits (even for justices) but most of all we must stop the greed!

I'm not sure what this is going to take, maybe seceding from the U.S.A. and draw back to our own state; or take up arms and march on Washington. Something needs to be done.
