“2014 needs to be a year of action. We’ve got work to do to create more good jobs, to help more Americans earn the skills and education they need to do those jobs, and to make sure that those jobs offer the wages and benefits that let families build a little bit of financial security.”
- President Obama, in this afternoon’s press conference.
It not a matter of pointing out what needs to be done. It matters that someone takes the initiative to actually get things done. Obviously, our representatives are more focused on keeping their own jobs and maintaining their image in front of the public eye to actually pass legislation to fix any of the problems in this nation.
Zero job related bills were passed this year. There has been 46 votes to repeal the Affordable Healthcare Act and apparently our respresentatives and senators believe that llghtbulbs are more important that immigration reform, gun control, and minimum wage bills.
No matter what Nancy Peloski tweets out, the incompetence of our government is due to the parties’ inability on compromise, lack of communication between officeholders, and the need for our representatives to secure money and votes from parties and donors for the next election. Without a change in these factors, our government will continue to be as unproductive in 2014 as it was this past year.
