Unfair THEREV.BRUCERICHAEL, FARRELL, PA.
When you think and talk about government, do you tend to think of it as more as “the government” or as “our government”? I think of it as “our government,” and it’s only going to work if everyone participates . . . by getting involved on a local level. I’mone of those people who believe that all policies start in the neighborhood. And we must realize that those that we send up the ladder toWashington,D.C., started in somebody’s neighborhood. All in all, do you think things in the nation are headed in the right direction or do you feel that things are on the wrong track? I feel that we live in the greatest nation of the world. However, I believe we need to do things that have worked in the past and build on many of those things. I know there’s a time for newthings.However, our nation . . . seems to be unstable. I’m seeing things deteriorate faster . . . in the ways of education and even the health-care plan.

When you think and talk about government, do you tend to think of it as more as “the government” or as “our government”? [No answer.] All in all, do you think things in the nation are headed in the right direction or do you feel that things are on the wrong track? I would say that things are on the wrong track because—one of the biggest things is— we talk about government spending and the debt. You know, I can’t havemy checkbook be in the red, but apparentlyWashington can and it doesn’t seem like they are doing a whole lot to fix it or find how we can work better. I have to give up some things because I don’t have the money to do them or I have to realize you know I’ma college student andmy job is only part time. But the government can’t figure out what’s most important and what we need and what things they need to cut out. So I definitely think that is a sign of heading in the wrong direction.
When you think and talk about government, do you tend to think of it as more as “the government” or as “our government”? I would say “the government.” . . . I think that the federal government would like to take into consideration what the people think and what the people want, being that we’re run as a democracy. But I think in the end, the people’s voice can only go so far because we’re not the ones in control. And I think that we’ve seen the federal government make decisions that have disappointed Americans and displeased Americans. All in all, do you think things in the nation are headed in the right direction or do you feel that things are on the wrong track? [No answer.]
