I & many other Americans are afraid that the U.S. will collapse. We are in debt & that is because The Debt Ceiling keeps rising & we have a Trade Deficit. Also the Government is not investing in infrastructure, the economy, nor the american people. Americans are suffering the bitter rivalry within the Government. They are supposed to negotiate so America keeps growing from within. We need to become independent to survive in case we are cut off from the World. Politicians worry about their own Agendas & not the American People. These so-called politicians(government) that Work for The American People(the other 96-98%) need to change. If we don't then we won't have a future for our children & family because only the RICH(& their families) will be able to handle the fall. I LOVE AMERICA & I don't want to live anywhere else. This is the best place & always will be if we change before its too late. We have to start somewhere & since Money seems to rule the world lets start their. The U.S. ECONOMY needs to be fixed & some of the main issues are to have a !~TRADE SURPLUS~!(not a Trade Deficit) & !~STOP SPENDING~!(stay within the budget). The AMERICAN PEOPLE are the Government we are the power force so lets speak up. Please sign the petition so maybe they will understand that it's not just them that matter its all of us every walk of life here in america.
