To the Honorable Chris Cannon:

I am very disturbed by the fact that our government is about to bail out the financial sector of our country.  When companies fail, it is due to taking risks, making bad decisions and poor management.  As a tax payer and a true American patriot, I do not feel it is our responsibility to pay for these large corporations mistakes.

I understand that not bailing out these corporations would cause financial problems for the country, but in all fairness, this country is in a bad spot whether or not we do this.  I would rather see the criminals that run these companies go to jail and a few years of hardship rather than postpone and compound the problem for years to come.

The reality is that our US dollar currency is worth less than the paper it is printed on.  We are trillions of dollars in debt (by the way if I ran my company like the government does, I would be in jail – interesting thought) and eventually we will have to pay it back.  Rather than postpone the problem until you are out of office, please try to do the RIGHT and HONORABLE thing for our country.  Please vote NO for any type of government bailout that will inevitably make our country and our currency worth less.
