Clinton is extension of government we know

It will be an interesting finish to this election in the next few months. I have done more research and paid more attention to this election than any before. I can thank Trump for that.

I am not a Republican nor Democrat, per se, but I do lean Republican. I have long had a distrust of our government resulting from past lies, deceptions and cover-ups over my lifetime. Watergate, agent orange and mysterious deaths, just to name a few.

Our forefathers warned about building an economy on debt instead of production. This can destroy an economy.

After two recent market collapses (2000 and 2008) it looks like another is upon us.

The six major banks in our country have roughly 40 times their net worth and seven times the world economy out on derivatives or the stock market casino, as I call it.

Among these banks, are the ones Obama bailed out and our government regulates.

Regulates? As in all collapses and crashes, we all get hurt. Even the top 1 percent. They can take the hit, but, yeah, them too.

Our government leaders are the only ones unaffected. Think about that. Our taxes, sacrifices and way of living are their answer to we shall overcome.

What do you mean, we? Ninety percent of our assets are traceable to our government now. If this economy tanks again, life for Americans may never be the same.

I am scared for my boys. All that being said, I cannot vote for a career politician. Not because she's a woman. Not because she is a Democrat, but because she is government as we know it.

I would rather roll the dice on a brilliant businessman who has interest in making this country financially stable and respected again. More of the same could completely destroy the middle class.
