THE U.S. GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN 2013


THE U.S GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN 2013 BY Pat Charles

THE US GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN-2013 BY PAT CHARLES

This is a Human Rights Issue:  I am amazed that my colleagues are sitting on the side lines like this is okay.    Where are the Human Rights Activist, Civil Rights Leaders, Social Workers, Ministers and Teachers who have historically lead the way.  Stand Up, Speak Out Now!!!!! 
It is not okay for the U.S. Government to hold the American people hostage.

It is not okay that families are being given the choice by U.S. Government to eat or have Health Care.

It is not okay the U.S. Government and in the case the Republicans get to continues to say they are representing the American people.  Who have already made it clear they want the Affordable Health Care Act.
It is not okay that Republicans get to misrepresent and say whatever they want in order to get their way.

Think about if you behave in this matter with your employer would you still have employment?  Well Congress needs to be put on notice either follow the law of the land or prepare to be fired.  WE WANT THEM OUT.  How do we fire these guys right now?! 

WHY IS IT OKAY THAT CONGRESS GETS TO HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE BUT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE NOT ENTITLED TO INSURANCE.
WE WANT A CLEAN BILL WITH NO CONDITIONS A BILL APPROVING WHAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE ENTITLED.


IF THE CAN’T GET THIS DONE THEY NEED TO BE FIRED NOW!!!!
