Introduction

 I am a middle-aged wife and mother of four grown children who teaches the best kids in a public school and absolutely loves her job. I just want to put my thoughts out into the universe. No one needs to read this, but if you do, please know these are MY thoughts. Everything on here comes from my brain and my research. So here goes:

We, in America, live in a capitalistic society. This means the free market and the economy are front and center. When the economy is healthy, it benefits everyone. There is money for many more programs than when it isn't.  There is a pride in earning your own money and being able to spend it as you wish, and not paying a boatload of taxes. When the economy is healthy, you don't have shortages. People are able to buy their wants, not only their needs. This isn't of course every family, as there are many families that are in dire need. But, I haven't heard of inflation moving in a truly long time. I certainly haven't thought of families needing to choose shoes or food because of it.

I think I have started to dispense my thoughts. I don't want too long-winded. 

These are my everyday thoughts. More to be added tomorrow.
