On Politics, Methinks….
…that regardless of who wins the presidency, the majority of the middle class families will not benefit from either of the candidates plans.
How will offering a tax credit for health insurance help those who are already struggling, living with day to day? When something isn’t affordable, it’s not affordable because the money isn’t there. Giving a tax credit isn’t going to help day-to-day because most people don’t understand or know how to take full advantage of tax credits to begin with.
I’m still not sure who I am going to vote for - I disagree with both sides on many things. How can I vote for someone who supports killing babies who survive partial birth abortions? On the other hand, how can I vote for someone who supports sending more grown children of America’s mothers to be killed to a war that I don’t undertand?
Also, I don’t think that either candidate is a “magical savior” who is going to rid America of all it’s troubles. Taxes will always rise, disasters will always happen, and the economy will always rise and fall.
It’s quite a lot to ponder.
Anyway, if you aren’t currently listening to the debate…do so…now!

Hi! My name is Lisa. I am 25 years old, and am married to the most wonderful man in the universe. I also just gave birth to my first son, Jack-Evan (aka "Little Jack"!). I love Jesus, my family, the ocean, good books, and motherhood.
I know what you mean. Neither candidate is my “ideal” so I just had to go through the issues and see who most closely matches what I believe. The abortion issue is huge for me as a Christian and I just cannot vote for anyone that could possibly try to pass a law that would use my tax dollars to fund such a thing so that made my choice easy. But I’m with you - we’re not electing a “savior”. We’re still going to go through tough times in this country regardless of who’s elected.
