FEMA trailers. They’re low quality, high-priced relief wagons used to house those rendered homeless by Sandy and other major disasters. Prime targets for those that assail government waste, the trailers were a major issue during Katrina’s aftermath and FEMA’s ineffective response. Money aside, the heart of giving lies in individuals, not the federal government.

It’s how most of us feel. We’re watching our favorite show on Hulu or listening to music on Pandora and then we hear a 30-second stack of lies, half-truths and a candidate having crafted the art of saying, “I’m so and so and I approve this message.” Yes. We’re in the middle of political ad mania. This is our country, not points scored in debates or political ads. This is about the preservation of our American heritage and our opportunity.

By pursuing love and popularity, President Obama has dashed our foreign policy and embraced sheepish naivety. He’s created a rise in hate and anti-American feelings in a Middle East set ablaze. In Egypt and Libya, he attempted purchasing “allies” in the Muslim Brotherhood—an organization with oft-cited connections to terrorist groups.

Economically, the ability to buy, sell and trade stuff is to be free and voluntary. Command over the same is absolutely unwelcome. Because government can’t control everything, an attempt to is inefficient and miserable. Not to mention, it leaves our wallets empty.

Shallow minds we have thinking November is about the next four years. No. This is about the remnants of our productive lives. This election will define our productive lives. It will set the tone. We can build the home of economic prosperity or sand and stain its casket. By choosing to keep what we have, we’ll live out what we deserve. As pollster John Zogby would say, we’ll remain, “college educated, not going anywhere.”

Meet Julia. She doesn’t have a last name, but just like you—under “Big O” of course—she has Daddy Government to lean on. When she can’t pay her student loans, eh… payment schmayment. When she gets old, Mr. G. will provide new wheels from The Scooter Store. Grand Canyon, here she comes! But come on, that’s not love. Daddy G can do better. He can meet Julia step-for-step with all the love, care and poisonous affection of big, sloppy kisses from government programs. And by step-for-step, I mean from birth till death do us part.

President Obama has an “accomplishment sheet” and one Virginia Senator isn’t afraid “to put boots on the ground” and energize voters with such a stacked résumé. While Virginia State Senator Louise Lucas isn’t afraid to imply Mitt Romney and his supporters are racists, we have yet to receive the details of Barack Obama’s revered accomplishment sheet. If you have much to brag about, why demonize the opponent and attempt to label him a racist?
