Now that the BP oil explosion has allegedly been contained, seems the next thing the federal government and the gang in Washington may want to cap is the bubbling American angst. You needn’t dive miles beneath the surface of the Gulf of Mexico to detect the growing distrust many Americans feel towards Congress and the White House. The geyser of government dissatisfaction is only going to get worse.
According to a recent Gallup Poll, Americans view Immigration policy, poor healthcare, natural disaster response, Federal budget deficit, fuel costs, wars, “lack of money,” Afghanistan and even the war in Iraq as lesser problems than “dissatisfaction with government/Congress/politicians; poor leadership; corruption; abuse of power.” Only the economy and unemployment ranked higher than Uncle Sam as “important problems” confronting our country.
Hello. This would be laughable if it didn’t directly effect our lives.
This should rattle our politicians and elected officials more than the 3.6 magnitude earthquake that struck the DC area early this morning.
Reminder: Only 6 days left until the debut of The Brian Brawdy Show. Talk about feeling like an aftershock to the Capitol Hill gang.
Poll: Americans Fed Up with the Federal Government
