It seems the word of the week is “fair.”  The President wants to try to make things “fair” for Americans.  There is no such thing as “fair” in life.  Life is not fair. 

There are winners and losers.  There are people who work very hard and end up with very little.  There are people who don’t work hard and end up with a lot.  Some people are born into money; others have to work hard to earn their fortune. 

The government can try all they want to make things fair, but it won’t be fair.  In my life experience, the more the government is involved in our lives, the worse off we are.  The best thing that could happen right now is for the state and federal governments to downsize and become more efficient.  Less regulation, less taxation, less government waste, that is what I define as “fair.”
