Description

Americans elected Donald Trump as the 45th president of the United States because they wanted change. Tired of career politicians many Americans thought Trump would bring a refreshing change to America. Trump, a successful businessman, promised Americans he would boost wealth and make America strong but instead has increased America's debt by 2 trillion dollars, increased the deficit by 319 billion dollars, passed a tax reform bill which benefited the wealthy, started a trade war with our trade partners causing taxpayers 12 billion dollars to bail out our farmers, further divided our country socially and economically and befriended our worse enemies while berating our allies. In his 2020 budget, he proposes making huge cuts to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and programs which assist the less fortunate areas which he promised not to cut. As Americans, we need to wake up, and realise our country is going down a terrible path and President Trump's policies and actions are destroying the very foundation and core values established by our country's forefathers. Most Americans work hard to try and make a living and a good life for their families. However, for many, this is a struggle with over 42 per cent of Americans making less than a living wage and have to work two or three jobs to survive. Over12 per cent of Americans can't afford health insurance for themselves and their families. Working Americans are not looking for a handout but a way to survive and improve life for their families. Americans want a fair, equitable system. American worker's wages have not substantially increased over the years while their benefits have decreased or eliminated. On the other hand, American CEO's incomes have increased more than 930 per cent since 1978. The system is broke; American workers should not be slaves to the wealthy and greedy. Americans workers should be paid a living wage, have affordable health care and not have to worry about being unable to retire. The majority of Americans would like a universal health care system which will guarantee health care for all Americans. It is sad that we are the only developed country in the world without a universal health care system. We need an educational system which will provide our children with the tools needed to advance in society. Educating the population and providing a working wage will reduce crime and welfare thus saving our country money. If our elected officials work together to cut government fraud, waste and abuse there would be sufficient funds for universal health care and free education for our citizens. We as a country need to work together as a nation with everyone treated equally. We need to get over treating individuals differently due to race, sex and ethnicity but treat everyone the same. There should be no government handouts to anyone who is capable of making a living wage. Our country is in desperate need for a leader who can unify our country not divide it. A leader who will be honest and not continually lie - a leader who has integrity and the best interest of our country and all its citizens. America needs to get back on track and return to the country the world admires and respects. As citizens, we need to elect officials who want what is best for the country and its citizens, not special interest groups. As citizens, we need to come together as we always have in the past to ensure our country remains a country run by the people for the people.
