A Letter to President Obama

Dear President Obama,

No longer can I stand by at the edge of a current of raging red waters that flow by us all in a torrent of overspending, a lack of focus on fiscal responsibility, and a destructive path of erosion that threatens the foundations of our freedom, future, and motivations.

Our local, state, and federal governments must curb their overspending and serve the people with decisions and actions to help secure a worthwhile future for our young. We also must find ways to balance budgets without over-taxing the achievers and contributors in society with disproportionate shares of the revenue burden—thereby penalizing success achieved by these business owners, corporations, entrepreneurs, and hard-working citizens.

In my household, I must align spending with income.

In the company for which I work, I must align spending with income.

And in the country in which I live, our GOVERNMENT MUST ALIGN SPENDING WITH INCOME.

Please take a step back, and cast an eye forward—on what must be done to ensure our continued success in this, the greatest country on Earth.


Sincerely,



Jeff Wedge
