Working Up

by Dwayne Phillips

The government sequester begins tomorrow as does the biggest advertising campaign in the history of America.

Unless something unforeseen happens, the great government sequester begins tomorrow, March 1st. Also beginning will be the biggest advertising campaign in American history.

Those who want government to be bigger will be out telling everyone that it is no coincidence that the sky fell when the sequester began.

Those who want government to be smaller will be out telling everyone that no one can tell any difference in daily life.

My predictions:

• Both sides will be exaggerating
• Newspapers, TV, Radio, etc. will love the advertising dollars
• Editorialists from all media will join in the fray
• It will be boring to the vast majority of us

I know persons who will be hurt. They will lose their jobs and struggle to pay their bills. If you know persons like this, do what you can to help them through it financially, emotionally, and spiritually.

The recourse left to Americans is the old one:

vote the bums out of office.
