I've been thinking alot about the results of the election yesterday. I'm not overly excited about our new President and the policies of his party, but I realize that we must all come together to move forward because we cannot change it now. Let's just hope that we get to keep enough of our hard earned Halloween candy and that it doesn't all go to those that were too lazy to go Trick-or-Treating. ;)
Some of the most important things we can do is to continue following the advice of the prophets to get out of debt and build our reserves so that we can survive tough times which are bound to come. We will probably see tax increases that will affect all of us in one way or another, but if we are saving and building our food storage, we have the promise that we'll be blessed to survive the tough times.
One thing everyone is right about, tough times are ahead and we will all have to sacrifice, be it in different ways. I know that our family is going to focus on getting out of debt and building our savings. That's been something that's been tough for us to do as we've continued to prosper since we were married. My job is steady and fortunately, the company continues to grow, but we do need to be aware that things can always change.
The main stream media is such an easy source of information these days but it is extremely biased and has leaned toward extreme liberalism in its view over the last 10 to 15 years. Hopefully we, as the new generation of voters that supposedly turned out in record numbers, will realize the importance of doing our own research and not relying totally on the Media for information. We have so many more tools out there to see beyond what the Media reports that we should become the best educated electorate of all time. We all need to start educating ourselves because no matter where information comes from, it will always have some bias from the source.
Anyway, just my 2 cents. Follow the Prophet, don't go astray.
