Main street vs. Wall street

Most voters are not real smart. Most politicians work together to find out how to get votes for their party. Now days the truth is usually covered up and lies are used to persuade voters through emotions, because politicians need to incentivise voters to go to polls.

Let us search some truths. America stands for free enterprise. Big Corporations fight to compete against each other usually. Let's look at three different important areas American consumers need. Food, Fuel, Health.

Food providers must use free enterprise. A few big corporations control small parts of the whole, but costs cover a wide spectrum. People with money can get just about anything they want with little concern about the cost. Poor people may have to work hard, but for the most quality food can be bought at reasonable prices.

Fuel/ Energy cost are largely controlled by large monopolies, but there are other options usually. Large oil companies control way to much, but Americans need to move toward better options, not to kill large oil companies, but to offer more competition. Wind and solar are two options for competition. The USA needs to move toward more options to increase competition and improve our energy costs and availability.

What about health? Health providers and big health insurance companies work together to control health cost. Current laws allow large monopolize the health industry. It used to be that human health was a major item to American health, but over the last few decades money has trumped health industry. Medical insurance companies control the state laws and costs. We need do away with these monopolies with free enterprise to make health care better and less expensive.

Many people think that Obama Care is a government take over. But it is not. Like the food industry is controlled by many laws that make food better, new health laws will slowly do away with health monopolies and allow more people to afford health care. If the food industry was controlled by a few large monopolies, there would be millions starving just like there are millions without health insurance.

Right now, the big medical monopolies are controlling the Republicans to save their monopolies. They are raising insurance costs because they ARE monopolies and can do what they want, and they need more money to buy politicians. Democrats are fighting to improve health care and energy costs. Republicans are fighting for companies who give them money.

Americans should be smarter. Christians should remember that money is root of evil. Democrats are fighting for main street, Republicans are fighting for Wall street.

If Republicans were not lying about their goals, the only votes they would be from Wall street.
