5 Things To Do To Change Your Government
I know this isn’t a usual post for me and doesn’t really fall within the recruitment space, however the recent events of our government have really disgusted me. I began thinking what I and you can do to start some change in this country and wanted to share with you what I’m doing and what you can do to.
Don’t Reward Failure.
Washington Mutual is the latest blunder that has made headlines and it’s where I also have all our accounts including the business account. Their last CEO was on the job a total of 18 days and was paid 13 million dollars. So my first step is to take my money out of Washington Mutual/JP Morgan and move it elsewhere. I will not support companies that pay executives outrageous amounts of money to let their company sink.
Don’t Make The Same Mistake Twice:
I’m moving my money I was doing some research on who I can do business with and found some great information. The US Banking Tapeworm is a list of 20 banks have reached 89 billion in net income while in the same year US households ran a deficit of $342 billion.
Support Local Banks:
As I have chosen not to go with any bank that is on the tapeworm list I started looking at both local banks and credit unions. The Green Party gives great insight about how to choose a bank, what to look for and then how to act.
Vote Everyone Out Of Office:
Come election time I will not be voting one incumbent back into office. Not local, not state, not federal. Some of the objections of this could be that whom I’m voting into office has no experience. Right…that’s exactly what I want. I have seen the past and it has been devastating and now I want to change the future. Get rid of the old boy network and let’s start something new/fresh.
Get Involved:
Since hearing about this I have been emailing and calling my senators and congress man almost everyday. Let them know your mad as hell and won’t take anymore of it. People in government believe that Americans are sheep and they are the herders of the sheep. Stop being a sheep and start leading the sheep. Run for office, start a petition, march on Washington, anything but complain to your friends and family. It’s our future and lets start taking control of it now!
