Troubling

It is troubling to me that the country is so evenly divided over the presidential race. What does this say about us as a nation? It is not a simple preference as say would you prefer an apple or an orange. The two leading candidates have totally different philosophies and outlooks when it comes to the nation. We are a nation divided into three different categories; the haves, the haves not, and what I like to call the fence sitters. The fence sitters are the people that are doing okay but are one incident away from being a have not. They are the people with a house, two nice vehicles, and a couple of kids. They are also the people with a $900.00 mortgage payment, a $500.00 SUV payment, and a $400.00 car payment. They are basically two checks away from their world falling apart. The sad thing is that a lot of them don’t realize it. They think that the economy is great. They think the job market is good. If you think the job market is good go to the paper and the internet and do a job search as if you were fired today. Do you see any jobs that have the pay and the benefits of your current job?
