America, let's make a change.By For Our Grandchildren

Yesterday, the Wall Street Journal printed an article which included the following comments by Eugene Steuerle: 

"The dilemma that's going to confront the next president the day he or she walks into office is the huge fiscal gap in terms of the promised expenditures we're going to make," said Eugene Steuerle, senior fellow with the Urban Institute, a nonpartisan think tank. "Looming obligations for entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare are going to leave little room for spending or tax cuts."

"What makes today so unique in all our history is that never before have we promised so much in the future that those promises absorb all future revenues," Mr. Steuerle said.

With so many experts sounding the alarms on Social Security, why aren't our politicians paying attention?  Better yet, why aren't enough voters paying attention and making politicians face the future?

As a mother of two, I am scared of the economic future of this country and of what my children will have when I no longer support them.  I'm fearful of my future!

America, it's time for us to wake up and take action!
