To the Editor:
Since April, I have asked my Congressman (Daniel Webster, R-8) and both Seantors to accecpt a challange to help reduce the principle on our American Debt by donating 1% of their income to the reduction of the principle of the National Debt. I have sent a check each week to one of them made out to the US Treasury.
Rep. Webster had a staff member, Elizabeth, call me and say he agreed and would accecpt my challange. Further, he would see if his staff would participate as well. I have asked for some indication that this is happening becasue I have friends willing to do the same but don't believe Rep. Webster is doing so. I have gotten no respose since the call I received in early May.
Sen. Rubio has not responded and Sen Nelson says he will look at the challange in merit and get back to me.
The American poeple are not idiots, they realize the debt is a clear and present danger to the United States. Many would be willing to sacrifice a little to help save our country. Consider the results if 150 million donated $1.00 a week (or more) to the PRINCIPLE of the National Debt.
I hope that the people of these great United States will wake up and TELL their public servants to stop acting like they are 3 years old. That’s what I’m doing. We’ll see if it’s effective.
