When the bills come in they need to be paid. Look at which thing is the most important like food, clothing, home, electric, water,gas ect. Then if there is any money left over you can spend it. Right now it is important that people can survive. They need homes, jobs, food, security ect. If the middle class or the poor fail so will the rich. Without the poor who will buy the products from the rich? Solar, wind power, ect would help free all of us from using so much oil. Education for the young is very important. Without it the poor will stay poor. I don't care about how many eggs a fish can lay or building a bridge, airport, or road to nowhere. Our country somehow is all about spending money for things ----we can do without for now.---- Right now we should only be trying to straighten out the problems and helping the people we have first, then we can waist money. Cut out the things we don't need like roads to nowhere and help the poor . We can't be a sick nation. We need medical needs met. Other countries do not charge as much for medicen as we do Mon, 12 Jan 2009 21:53:50 +0000 http://change.gov/newsroom/entry/the_president-elects_plan/#IDComment13923242
