Hopeful for a New Day!

Starting another day and looking forward to what it brings. A bit cold to start, but today holds lots of promise. While personally I don't have much planned, just doing laundry and working out. I also have time today to work on my online ventures and do some research for an offline venture that me and a friend are working on. In the meantime, I am looking forward to what the new congress brings to us. While I'm pleased with the results of the elections, I'm not sure that the Republicans aren't a bit overly optimistic about their ability to get some things accomplished. Yes, they are in control of the House of representatives, but they still have the Senate and President Obama to deal with. Although I support the effort to repeal the Health Care Law that was passed last year, that will be a tough fight. The real power the house holds is funding. Because finance bills have to originate in the house, they can effectively make the law irrelevant by not funding it. To me, that is one of the best things that this Congress could do on all fronts. Spending control needs to be the biggest priority this year. The Government has gone on a spending spree with no concern about paying for it, now they need a return to reality. I'll write more on that later this week, so keep an eye out for it. Keep it optimistic! -Crusher
