The article written by Cindi Ross Scoppe titled, “Government has to make choices families, businesses don’t” was published in the State paper. Its was recently published in the paper last month due to the recent economic struggles that most of this country faces. The article is directed towards those critics of our government's decisions and Americans in general.
The article's main point is the comparison of our government versus families and businesses. She thinks those that our comparing one to the other isn't very smart. The government has to make decisions that impact millions and millions of people while families are looking out for three or four people. The decisions made by the government are a lot more difficult and also have a greater impact. The critics of the government who think its just easy to fix this major economic problem should probably read this article. As stated it's not going to be easy to fix this and in no way can we compare this to our own personal financial problems. I thought it was a very good argument and very well written.
