As an election judge serving outside my precinct, I must vote absentee, and I have already marked and mailed my ballot. I voted for the candidates less likely to change our form of government into a full-blown socialism where life is lived OF the governing elite, BY the government bureaucracy, and FOR the government ideology.
The "introductory offer" 5% taxes increased/95% taxes cut "come-on" may well lead to a landslide victory this time. Only a slim majority is needed however, and the next go-around could be closer to a top 40% pays increased taxes/ 60% cut -- unless every tax bracket is increased by then to pay for all the "promises, promises."
I am somewhat above the "official" government poverty line, a Main Street citizen, yet I believe I know a few people in that top 5%. They are inventive, energetic people always trying to improve on an idea -- entrepreneurs, producers, employers of others, financially successful. I know them and of them because they have "spread the wealth" generously to non-profits and endowments for scholarships and charities - not to mention meeting payroll for many others.
Watching my own small 401K shrink, I do lament fraud and unchecked greed, but for me, this election is not all about the economy. We our placing our inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness into the keeping of mortal men and women of varied character. May they not exchange these rights for collectivist experiments placing our children and our children's children into bondage!
It will always be my prayer that God protect, preserve, and bless America.
