The following is a letter I recently posted on the White House.Gov site on ideas from the middle class (although I'd consider myself lower middle class). It's included here for the purposes of discussion - so please leave your respectfully worded thoughts.
To whom it may concern:
As a mid-west male Gen X, strong family man, and lower middle class, I'm vastly disappointed with our governments lack of true care for the people. While encouraging the leaving of comments on a web-site is mildly admirable, it also smacks of propaganda when the huge rift between the so called "right" and "left" continues to grow. When this administration continues to strongly support the genocide of abortion, as well as deepening the financial burdens of debt (while seeming to ignore the Tax Tea Party movement that seeks for some kind of responsibility), and appearing to enact only the change that special interest groups who funded the campaign drive for the white-house support - it doesn't seem very sincere to me. All people like myself want - people who are conservative, but progressive and intelligent individuals - is a government that truly cares what we think, and backs this up with responsible actions that aren't forcing people into positions of civil disobedience. As it stands, many conservatives are feeling repression not felt since our fore-fathers took the steps for independence from a government tyranny that thought it knew what was best, and forced its will upon them.
