Kick The Can Down The Road

There are problems in government. Local government. State government. Federal government. Problems are nothing new. There were problems yesterday. There are problems today. There are problems tomorrow. There are economic problems. There is too much cash in the world economy. Feel free to criticize. All concerns of a global recession or a global inflation are valid. Is the economy in a recession or is the economy in an inflation presently speaking? The question is debatable.

The feelings many of today's leaders are the following: not my problem, move along, not now, do it another day, and live the present. They're concern for themselves now. They're concern for themselves today. Earn the easy wins. Ignore the hard problems. Hope the hard problems solve themselves. Sometimes ignoring works. Sometimes ignoring doesn't work. The late Steve Jobs ignored his health problems. The costs were his life.

Be careful criticizing and complaining other people kicking the can down the road. You may be kicking your cans down multiple roads. Are you ignoring your problems? I ignored my problems decades ago. I'm paying the price today. Don't overstress. Solve personal problems one at a time.
