There is a little tiny bit of discrepancy between what Senator John McCain says about the Housing Crisis in America, and what he actually does. I am certainly not rebuking Senator McCain for being wealthy. Instead, I am remarking at his apparent lack of empathy for fellow America.

If the truth were told, I wish Senator McCain would look a bit deeper at the problems. Each and every person who has lost their home is not merely a statistic. They are people who are fighting to cover food, clothing and shelter–the most basic needs of a human–AND LOSING that battle.

Our tax money is funding a war on foreign soil at the cost of nearly a billion dollars a day. Our dollar has weakened against the world currency. Our government has paid incentives to large corporations to move their businesses (and jobs) to foreign countries, and the cost of gas has driven wholesale prices to the highest point in 27 years.

While there may have been some cases of recklessness, the cost of living in America has grown out of reach of a larger percentage of Americans (men and women were already working an average of 12+ hours a day to cover food clothing and shelter).
