Budget Deadlock

   Yesterday, Rep. Paul Ryan introduced the GOP House Budget bill.  It is destined to the same fate that it had last year.  It will be passed by the Republican House of Representatives, only to gather dust on Sen. Harry Reid's desk in the Democratic Senate.  While this is all taking place, the Obama administration will continue calling the Republicans obstructionists.  To the Republicans a budget is a spending allotment.  To the Democrats a budget is spending A LOT.
   I applaud Rep. Ryan's resolve in proposing a bill which would make the kinds of changes which are necessary to make our government more fiscally sound.  Certainly young people in America should be happy with a bill that might prevent them from living in a country which is strapped with a debt that will be stifling to their future economy.
   We have become an entitlement society.  That has to change.  We should make such change for the benefit of our children and grandchildren.  I am a strong believer in being a good steward with the blessings God has given me.  If our government did the same, maybe we could once again say proudly that we are a nation under God.
