Democrats united over union issue

Fox News reports that the Democratic Party is saying they are united over the union issue and this will give them  lift in the next election.

Someone should point out to the Democrats that only 7.2% of private sector workers are unionized and only 37.4% of the public workers are unionized.  That leaves a large amount of non union workers who are voters and forced to pay higher taxes to pay for these deals to the unions.

I think the Democrats could have gotten united over reaching a compromise with the Republicans so our government cam get back to business.  At this point We The People are just plain sick of all elected officials making the real issues of our lives into a political advantage for one party or the other.

Time to get a grip and go to work for We The People, who put you in power and can take you out of power.

Who is next?

Following the events of the last few weeks in Egypt has shown the world the power of the people.  The people of Egypt had the power to take down an oppressive government of 30 years.  The government felt they had all the power they needed, they underestimated the power of We The People.

The question is who is next?  It seems that the people of Yemen, who have been ruled by President Ali Abdulla Saleh for the last 32 years, have taken to the streets demanding the Presidents removal. 

Protests are planned for Libya and Iran on Monday.  What can a government do when We The People step up and demand change?  The government can either fight back with all the power it has at it’s disposal or do the right thing and serve the needs of the people instead of a few in power.

Has the day finally come when oppressive regimes are a thing of the past?  Have We The People realized that they, not the governments, really have the power.
