Blogging has been around for quite a few years. If a person writes useful and thought stimulating dialog, blogs can influence the opinions of many people.

A successful blog needs to have a subject and title that causes a person to want to know what is on the inside. I started this Easy Personal Budget blog about twelve years ago. I write a blog with a different angle every month sometime before the 10th of the month. The intent of this blog is to encourage families to adopt a budget and keep refining it so it is useful in accomplishing their goals. A budget is very useful tool, it encourages thinking before you spend and the desire to seek a profession that will provide the needed family income.

Since the United States Government and the Presidency is in a state of flux with no really encouraging goals, each of us must make our desires known to our U.S. Representatives and Senators and the President and Vice President. There are websites for all those people where you can go on the internet and write to them. I have been writing to my Representatives, Senators , and the President for years. It is surprising that in recent years I have actually gotten meaningful replies to some of my letters and emails. A very liberal Senator wanted to engage me in a debate on fossil fuels, electric cars, and his proposed Green Energy bill. I responded to his arguments for those programs. I got a thank you letter back but not sure he agreed with my opinion on anything.

Writing to the Governor, City and County Officials, and School Officials needs to done also. If enough people write regularly to these people and they can see that majority of the people in their jurisdiction favor certain legislation, they will have to cave or be defeated at the polls. That is why we need a large number of people writing to them not just once but on a regular basis. Just like a person writes a blog regularly, you need to write the people you want to influence regularly to keep the subject fresh in their minds.

One method I would suggest is that you set aside a time each weekend to write to government officials. Look on the internet and copy the addresses of all the government officials you intend to write to during the next month. Set aside a weekend for Federal Government influence, a weekend for City, County, and School officials. Set aside a weekend for State officials. Set aside the fourth weekend of the month to write to government officials you feel are way off of the mark. For example Mitt Romney, AOC, the Squad, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Governors that will not enforce the law.

You say well what can I write to these people about. Some examples of subjects that need to be addressed are (1)Encourage the Congress to defund sanctuary cities because they are not enforcing the law (2)Encourage Mayors and Governors to enforce the immigration laws that exist (3)Demand that Congressmen and Congresswomen and Senators quit adding unrelated pork to all the funding bills (4) Ask the Congress to speak in unison to the President and his border Czar to quit lying and saying the border is closed and take action to close it. The wall needs to be completed(5)Encourage V.P. Harris to come out of hiding and do her job if the border is really her assigned responsibility (6) Tell your representatives your local needs that need to be included in the infrastructure funding
(7) Tell the President and and Congress not to pack the Supreme Court and get to work on the things that need to be done using the existing laws. (8)Encourage good candidates to run for office in the upcoming 2022 elections so we can get the government stabilized again. Under the present administration the people are in the dark and are foreign allies do not trust our President. Look how Israel was treated in the recent conflict. IN SUMMARY GET INVOLVED DO IT REGULARLY AND ENCOURAGE YOUR NEIGHBORS TO DO THE SAME. IT WILL HAVE A BIG EFFECT ON THE FAMILY BUDGET AND STANDARD OF LIVING IN THE FUTURE.
