Walt Whitman

Recently we have been reading about Walt Whitman and we were assigned to read a poem from his vast collection. As I began to search through the many poems I could not seem to find a poem to write about. Myself being more of a realist guy found all of his poems, lacking any sense or moral. Many of his poems have no meaning or relation to me, and they all seem to project mixed ideas that have no form. Therefore I decided not to pick a selection to analyze it but to question the work of Walt Whitman. What do you think visit this site and tell me if you pull any "real" ides or theme from his writings?

Economy Check?

As you all most likely know  the economy is down and many of our leaders are trying to fix it. One of the ways Obama is trying to fix the economy is to print more "money". This money just adds to our all ready huge 14 Trillion US federal debt. When it comes down to the facts this money is supposed to be put into businesses but it usually ends up lost in the system and not doing any good but rather adding to our debt. When the money gets through to do actual good its only a short term effect and the economy usually go's back to the down state. Many politicians            disagree with these spending plans but the bills still  pass. What do you think? Should we keep spending, or find an alternative way to fix the economy? I believe you the people decide. (Picture courtesy of nydailynews.com)
