------------------------------------

once again the holidays among us,tis the time of giving(helping one another).im tired of asking for aid to help my financial woes,now im requesting the fine government of the united states to give aid to better all of the hard working americans that got you into office.without them you couldnt afford the way you live,now i know you toiled to get where you are at the expense(taxes)of fellow citizens that elected you.but dont we deserve honest answers,i have read many letters on aid page and realized my problems are miscule.people are asking,if not begging for some sort relief to their situations.im sure to no avail since your time is so filled with other obligations.the constitution states"we the people",not we the elected,so once again ill say.get off your duff(ass)and fix the problem,there is a solution lets not repeat the past,our future depends on it.

 in response to raker city...   I can certainly not only "identify" with your feelings here bud.. but i can appreciate the truth in what you are saying as well...however if you believe God can change hearts and thoughts of men ,then you have a great power in praying for our leaders .They might not have the financial needs that some of us are "straining "under in recent times. But every person alive has some type of need. Maybe we should begin to ask God ,"in the powerful name of Jesus ", to meet our leaders needs . We have a great opportunity to call out the names of each individual leader and their wives names to God and to ask him to shower blessings and favor on each one of them ;that he become "Real "and show himself to them meeting their needs. Because the bible proclaims that " men are brought to repentance because of the Goodness of God" . It is then that God can move on the hearts of local leaders to help the poor. We should also begin to pray for the CEO's of companies (the ones put on our hearts) . I know it may sound a bit cliche' but I have found it a proven and highly valueable tool . It certainly works. Its is we who have neglected so rich an inheritance. We who have grown tired and weary in "well doing!" And our religious sanctions that have put "blinders" on true power in Christ! Keep in mind that I am no religious zealout. I am simply a woman who actually believes God is faithful and kind to us. I ,like you, and many others have had my days of "venting" ! I have had my fair share of voicing my discontentment and frustration at how things are transpiring around me. So I know where your at . It is a terrible time we live in. Yet it is a wonderful time we live in .I now recognize that we are not as powerless as I had once believed. Perhaps when we christians become a blessing as one body we will see God do as He promised .Our country was founded on the True God, and on His only begotten Son Jesus Christ. We have a chance to remind ourselves and God of His wonderful covenant .Together I believe we can move this mountain and many more.

OUR CONSTITUTION STATES....We the people....For the people.....and By the people.....I do believe these GREEDY FILTHY Officials FORGOT to help the PEOPLE instead of the BIG FILTHY RICH conglomerates that with EACH merger get BIGGER only to impose OUTRAGEOUS FEES like the ones we are going to see for HEALTH CARE. No where in that HEALTH CARE plan is a supervisory agency that will ensure we will have INSURANCE CLAIMS paid. BUT EVERYWHERE it reiterates that the PEOPLE MUST PAY OR BE FINED! a couple THOUSAND DOLLARS, I would like to know if we do not have money for the MORTGAGE where are we going to get the $$ FOR THE BIG INSURANCE COMPANIES!????!!! Smaller countries have FREE HEALTH CARE (smaller countries!). They do not have a constitution but yet treat their citizens with more HONOR. I guess the big U.S.A. is a little ......U KNOW WHAT
