Fix Congress: Vote Republican

Two years ago when gas was $2 a gallon and the booming stock market was filling millions of retirement portfolios the voters voted in a Democratic president and in both chambers of Congress. Now, because of restrictions Democrats imposed to end our energy independence, gas prices have surged to as much as $6 a gallon in some states and uncontrolled spending and giveaways to buy votes have increased inflation to record highs.

The only method the Federal Reserve has to attempt to counter the free money is to raise interest rates. Those increases have crushed the value or retirement investment by more than 37% so many can no longer retire as they had planned. The increased rates have ended the American dream of home ownership for millions and our real estate values are plummeting.

The next half trillion in giveaways is going to pay off legal debt for more young Democratic voters who agreed to pay loans for their education all this while we have thousands of small businesses struggling that could use some help.

Enough is enough.

Fix Congress with your votes and give some checks and balances to the spending frenzy.
