    Mr. President say it isn't so

     

       I voted for you and believed in extreme change to our govnement. Boy was I surprised by what is happening right now.  I am a small hotel owner in Abilene, Texas and I am fighting a monster of a franchise and a crooked bank without any help.

        I believed in change and I wanted to receive help when all these giant corporations were getting bailed out. All I received was more work and a threat of being placed on an auction block.

          Why is it that all of the small business owners always get stepped on when all of these huge corporation profit.

         I need help from you,  Mr. president to survive. How can I stay with my head above water when there are some many bricks tied to my legs. I wish that you could just see what I see everyday. Working for more then 10 years asking my parents for help to invest their retirement funds into what appeared as a sure money maker and being forced by banks and franchises to almost put a gun to my head.

          Where is the justice in this country ?  Why are the rich now filthy rich and why are the common people below poverty line ? What is being done in Washington to stop these Corporate Giants from tearing us apart ?

         I respect you sir and I know that you are dealing with a lot of things but remember "we the people" voted for you not "we the corporations or banks"
