In the last debate we heard a lot about Joe “The Plumber”, I would like to talk to you about Michael “The Relationship Manager”. Michael “The Relationship Manager” believes that the government has an important role in society but believes that too much government gets in the way of progress. Michael “The Relationship Manager” understands that taxes need to be low but at the same time we must have a tax system that is fair to lower class workers.

Since I had the right to vote, I have viewed politics from afar. Politics have never really interested me in the least, mainly because I observed it as run-around and empty promises. I have found it hard to follow, or keep interested in laws and bills, campaigns or slam ads. Politics is just not my forte.
However, with the recent presidential election going on right now in the United States, (yes, I am completely disregarding the upcoming Canadian election) I cannot help but stick my nose in this business, and here is why. It is pop culture if it’s anything.

As a political conservative, I’ve written previously about how thrilled I was that John McCain picked Governor Sarah Palin as his vice president. (See Culture Feast article I Finally Have a Horse in the Race.) I wasn’t the only one who was excited by his choice. McCain’s poll numbers enjoyed a bounce after the announcement. Donors infused money into his campaign.

Check this out. Disclaimer: this is intentional comedy. Don’t take this seriously. I’m saddened that I have to say that. As you were.

My good friend, Barb, bakes four loaves of bread for her family every weekend because she doesn’t trust the additives and chemicals in store bought bread. Even though she’s a nurse and works in the health industry, she doesn’t take her daughters to the doctor unless she absolutely has to because her pediatrician always tries to pressure her to get her girls vaccinated against HPV (Human Papilloma Virus).
She makes her own soap because she doesn’t like the detergents and chemicals found in the bars you buy at the grocery store. In other words, Barb is an independent, do-it-yourself kind of woman who is mistrustful of many things most people think are okay.

One of the things that makes it hard for me to support any politician is that despite what they say on the campaign trail, none of them can truly deliver what they promise. The reasons are vast and someday I will blog more about that. What I want to do right now is talk about the change that I believe would be good for America.
The first and probably the most important one is our current tax code. Our tax system has been written in a way that makes it confusing and I believe that it is done deliberately. No one likes to pay taxes and we all wish that they were lower, however, there are some government programs that are essential and without tax revenue it would be impossible to fund those programs.

Are you tired of politics already? Are you sick of hearing how each man is going to save us with their plans that will only work in Imaginationland? Would you like to have some fun at political expense? Would you like to know what your name would be if Sarah Palin was your mom?
