American nation interests in today’s times

National Interests should win out, though the dance will be more complicated.

As bad luck would have it, we as a Nation are on our way to a financial slowdown, maybe a recession, maybe a depression. The definition is interesting only as an academic idea. The reality is much more important, and as so many females in the USA also have jobs, the consequences will be much different from what happened in the Depression in the 1930s. And we as a Nation will probably drag down other Nations to make this whole terrible possibility world-wide. Either way, going without jobs is a big deal, and with so many females in the workforce, the consequences will be so American.

One obvious consequence is a change in our course as a Nation. One can think those present day and also status quo politicians who led this most rich nation into the financial doldrums need to be replaced. We deserve better, and we did elect them. The counter offers I read are also so silly as they suggest many of us Americans are somehow “evil” as if we wake up in the morning wanting to do bad, to include screwing our fellow Americans politically and economically, all esoteric ideas of course. Realistically, things are different, and we have a common USA National Interest.

Another trend change is the transformation from promoting our USA companies composed of USA peoples from advancing our Country and our people to making them evil and enemies. While hard to admit, it has and is still happening. Now when some American people begin to go without jobs, and most likely without food, and even basic things like heat, things should even out between idealism and realism. Never lose the initiative is part of leadership 101, so guiding and leading these fellow Americans is a good idea. Being realistic, like jobs, also goes a long way.

So who do we choose as our future political leaders? There is much to suggest our present status quo political leaders are just that. They are more about them than us. So be it. But we can change the status quo by our vote. And our vote should be about our future, our astute leaders who have realistic and American national interest plans about helping us; and we should dump the old time leaders who got us this mess we are in. And 2008 is not too late because so many important elections are at the local and state level.
