I don't think giving the money as a *handout* will solve the problem. It seems like thats part of the reason our country is in trouble to begin with. I don't have all the answers, but I do think with the many issues that our Country is facing.....spending millions of dollars on a party seems a little crazy to me. I would have been impressed with Obama if he had opted to spend less on his big day, instead he is slated to spend four times the amount of the last president at a time when our Country is falling apart. I think it would have been a very honorable thing for our new president to actually walk the walk that he talks....
And before anyone starts in with anything about racism, I can assure you...my opinions on this issue have nothing to do with color. I could care less what color our incoming president is. I just want someone who can help our country...and actually follows thru will all the promises made during those very long speeches that got them elected.
