The Government ultimately has to argue, disagree and ultimately come to decisions which benefit the American people. Stalemates by all parties involved do not serve the best interests of the people. In our private lives we do not get to walk away from difficult issues. We discuss, disagree and ultimately we come to conclusions which have some benefit. There is no issue that cannot be met by respect and leadership. We must move beyond posturing and tactics that halt progress. Ordinary people’s lives are negatively effected by our elected officials behaving like spoiled children instead of responsible adults.
