I'm I proud of my country?

America oh America there is so many good and bad things about you. Unfortunately to me it seems like there are some unfortunate things among us here in America. Especially being in debt in trillions of dollars, which will take many years to get out of. Oh America oh America too many things seem to have gone wrong.                                                                                                                                

                                                 

What I seem not to understand is why does the USA have to be in the middle of everything! For example if there's a war on the other side of the world, I bet the USA is there in some way. And we need to get all of our debt gone until we get in the middle of something that we don't need to be in. That is what I think we all should do.                                                                                                                                

And to make things worse with all of our debt we have 14 million people unemployed. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and Household Survey Data. That is almost 10% of America that does not have a job! That is way too high and ridiculous! And I don't see it getting any better any time soon.

All of what I listed was unfortunately true and has enormous effect on us in America and not in a good way. But all of it is true so America oh America what should we do.

More money for cutting the lawn

I think that I should be able to get more money when cutting the grass at my house. Why I think that is when I cut other peoples lawns I get three to five times more of amount than what I get for cutting the lawn at my house. Even though that I am cutting my families grass I still think I could get more. And there are reasons for that.

My reasons are well why not? Half of it will be going into the bank? If you were a parent wouldn’t you like to hear that half the amount of your child’s money is going to bank? Not just something that I don’t need? So that makes me think I’m getting more but in the end, I am getting the same amount to spend. But In the future my money that’s going to the bank is then later to be used. For example is for going to collage or getting a car or something like that.

It would be nice to be getting more money in the bank but, there are good reasons why they wouldn’t  pay me more. Some reasons that I think they will not pay me more is because I use their lawn more and their gas which it all adds up.  Maybe they just don’t have the extra money to pay me. Or they just simply don’t want to pay me more. All of that I understand, but I think it would just make more sense to pay me more for cutting the lawn.

Over all it makes more sense in my mind that they should pay me more because that will give me a good amount of money going into the bank and help me in the future. But overall it is not up to me.

Never turning back

         It was a frigid fall day. Our team the Pirates were on the 50 yard line. It was 4^th and inches. It was the last play of the game. The score was zero to seven. The star quarterback (Hanson)  got injured last play of the drive.

         The next play of the drive they were sending in Zimmer the 2^nd string quarterback which has not played all season. And last season Zimmer only thrown one time that was last season and that was a interception that turned into a touchdown. To lose the championship game.

The fans were booing when Zimmer was coming out into the field. Zimmer could tell the fans have not forgotten what happen last season. Even Zimmer in his head was in  some way booing himself from what happen last year. But Zimmer was trying to get his head in the game because now he has another chance.    

         Zimmer had forgotten almost every play in the play book since he would never thought that he would play again. Zimmer did remember only the QB sneak. Okay QB sneak on hike. What?! "said Zimmer's teammates. A  QB sneak on the 50 yard line! They said. Okay ladies and gentlemen this is it. Hike! Said Zimmer. What’s that! Zimmer is running on the 50 yard line! Oh my! Zimmer's going to the 40,30,20,10…

         No good! What yelled the fans! The game is over. Zimmer was just at the one yard line. Everyone could tell how depressed Zimmer was about not getting the touchdown walking back to the sidelines. Hey kid, Said the Coach, even though you didn’t make it, you never turned back. And that is the only thing Zimmer wanted to here.
