In "Government has to make choices families, businesses don't" by Cindi Ross Scoppe indicates that most of the economic problems we are faced with does not reflect so much on individuals and Businesses. However, the burden of the downward spiral of the economy is placed upon the shoulders of the government. This article is address to the South Carolina residents, and it is located on the State News website. Scoppe being a contributor is an Associate Editor. In regards to Scoppe writing this article, she brings to the readers the seriousness of Americas problem and the dilemma our government has found themselves in.
Scoppe enlighten us on the mere fact that the analogies used to determine what a business would need to get a jump start, and what a families would need to get a jump start can not be used by the government. The government has only this one time to get it right. Although she uses the term choices for the government I believe is a contradiction because their choices are becoming limited daily on where best to place money or spend. I also understand where the writer is coming from in regards to businesses and families. She believe that they don't have choices, and the results they are faced with is moneyless and homeless at the end of the day.
However, I believe this article establishes critical thinking on our part, and on the average American to begin to think and get involve to make sure the government choices are our choices.
