Rich People/Celebrities and Our Economy

OMG! What was the first thing that I saw when I went to Yahoo's front page today? The best and worst dressed at the SAG awards. I'm just sitting there thinking to myself. How freaking shallow can we get?

Right now we're in the middle of a war, our economy is failing fast, we have millions of people who have lost their jobs, millions more who know it's only a matter of time and then we have these ill-nourished celebrities showing of their multi-million dollar outfits and accessories.

I tell you that I have had enough! I can't even escape this crap with the president and his family! All I've been hearing about since inaguration day is more spew about Mrs. Obama's outfits and gown. About their daughter's clothes and about how they are getting to have private concerts with the Jonas Brothers and meet Miley Cyrus in person.

You would think that such a "caring" president who wanted to REALLY make changes for this country would be more mindful of the suffering of the United States Citizens and maybe even have his family lead by example and wear clothes that NORMAL people wear.

I would have a lot more respect for our celebs and our President and his family if they would shed their pricey attire and just wear normal clothes. Furthermore, if they really wanted to make a statement, they could pay a visit to their local Wal-mart or Goodwill and put together an ensamble from one of those venues.

Instead it feels like those of us who live week to week and work hard for their money are just having their noses rubbed in it by people who really couldn't care less.

So, I'm not watching any more Hollywood bullcrap, and I don't want to see anymore fashion exposes on the President's family either!!!!

I love you. But your not normal people. Normal people don't shop walmart for clothing. Sears is where normal people shop. You will only get away with cheap clothes until your daughter becomes a teenager. Save your money that's expensive. Later
