Conflict Around Me

The biggest conflict that I acknowledge in my life is mainly political. It isn’t that I don’t believe Obama does not mean well or have a good heart, because I believe he does and he is doing what he thinks is right for the country. However, I disagree with his policies on many levels. They do not meet the needs of many people. For example. I believe strongly in capitalism and I feel bailout money, which comes from young adults and working Americans, is not only a waste, but destroying ethical business within the U.S. Notice that companies that are not going bankrupt are highly moral, ethical, and benefit the community. One may ask, “what about the potential loss of jobs without this bail out money?” The answer to that is in the short terms, yes many jobs may be lost, but the people who lose these jobs, in theory, will create new business which should take into account the reason they lost their job in the first place and fix the faults of the old employer. Small business is what America is built on and bailing out unethical corporations is not my idea of beneficial. This aggravates me especially since the only say I have is my vote. Is it just to skip out on taxes if I don’t agree with the re-allocation of tax payers money? Where does the line of civil disobedience need to be drawn? It seems here the needs of our capitalist economy are not being met. Business and economy go in cycles and with it job loss, and creation. Analyzing this, one can find out more about the economics of a country and why a certain type of government works or does not work. In theory, socialism, capitalism, and distributism all work in theory, but a government needs to foster the needs of the particular system they want to use.
