We let our government destroy the economy

When we felt threatened by the Russian government years ago, a famous Russian said that not a single shot need be fired; all we need to do is destroy your economy.

In the end, it was our own politicians who did it, consistently re-elected by voters who should share the responsibilities involved now, not complain about unemployment or promised jobs, who taxed our own companies to flea to China, Mexico, etc., in their greed.

Our Forefathers founded our Constitution on a Supreme being to ensure no politician could steal them from us, nor did they ever intend for leaders to become career politicians, taking too much power and threatening our very Constitution and Bill and Rights.

Why don’t the voters see what is happening and vote them out? Hopefully, it’s not too late now.
