Poor are Poor because they want to be Poor
I still contend that this is a true statement. Everyone is given the opportunity to achieve in America and the choice made in life determines our personal success. How an individual handles the opportunities and the effort put forth to reach those goals are self inspired determination some have it and some blow it.
I’m seeing a “New Poor” developing now in American society. Not those that has made the bad decision, over extended themselves, uneducated, drug depended, lazy and just plain stupid behavior individual. But educated individuals, once driven people, inspiring to achieve people, hard working, dedicated to working, saving/banking account drawing low and heart broken family men and women whose dreams and spirit is fading from their future.
Some of you are now in this situation and some of you graduating will find this to be a reality.

Obama … ….create JOBS. Great words of wisdom from a Public Servant (he called himself that), who has never worked, owned a business or created anything on his own.
Two Questions: Answer anyone of the two or both
1. What needs to happen to reverse this “New Poor…. New Needy” situation? Other than just saying JOBS
2. Is this Administration capable of doing what is right to creating private sector JOBS?
As a business owner of two business sale are down 25% in one and 41% in the other to save the business I have to make cuts ……… (sad and heart broken)
One business a small business loan is not the answer …. kick starting the building market but even that would take nine months to a year to alter any sales for me to rehire anyone.
Second business a SBA loan $150,000/200,000 would be very helpful to push our new product line but it will not create any new jobs for maybe a year out or more.
