We have no shortage of oil.
We have no shortage of natural gas.
We have no shortage of anything necessary to maintain American Standards of living and economic growth except: Rare Earth Metals.
Rare earth metals are a group of 17 metals (such as lanthanum and cerium) that are used for a variety of high tech gadgets that are vital to modern life.
The other shortage we have is with educated voters and fact filled congressional politicians.
So when elected congressional officials tell you we have an ineffective government with nothing but job killing regulations; that our government needs to be smaller with less regulations so we can reduce taxes, get government off your back and allow the free enterprise system to do what it does best; ask yourself......
If all these things are true......
How come we're climbing out of a recession after over ten years of tax cuts, reduced government funding to enforce regulations, where job creators offered no new employment to our citizens in over 10 years, then laid-off 20% of all citizens right before the economy fell off a cliff due to the free market systems inability to regulate itself.
The FACT is starving a government of adequate revenue and of the ability to be effective in doing it's job has consequences.
Every organization has to deliver products & services while balancing income with expenditures or go bankrupt.
This includes our elected officials in Congress.
Income must increase and expense must decrease to pay down our debt.
Doing anything less is a complete waste of time and effort for which you can expect either no results and results that backfire on "We the People".
Hypocrisy resides in our halls of congress, tell me which party is more deserving to hold the honor of said definition; the hypocritical political party, send them home.

IMO, although a Politician is wealthy, if he/she is doing the work for the people, he/she should be re-elected. The Congress of 2011, is full of GOP/TP. We need more progressives in Congress to take the place of this right wing nuts, and some Dems who are bought by the Banks, Corporations.
