Type in the content of your page here.On December 16, 1773 342 crates of tea was thrown in the Boston harbor. The American colonists were mad at new taxs on tea. They formed a group called the Sons of Liberty. This group dumped the tea off 3 British ships into the Boston harbor. They refused to buy any of the tea. The people in Boston were not the only ones mad about the tax on the tea. People in New York, Maryland, and New Jersey were also mad about the taxes too. [] []

Dear Mr. President,

Every time I see the news, I hear the economy is bad, health care needs to change, and gas and oil prices were too high. Would you please let me know how you can change these three issues? If the gas and oil prices made other items more expensive, then why are things still expensive with the gas and oil lower now than several years ago? Why are times so bad?

My family once owned a gas/service station. For a long time everything was good. I heard my dad talk about how he finally was selling more gas and had a loyal base of customers for the brand he sold. Then a few years ago the gas and oil prices kept going higher and higher. The loyal gas customers couldn’t afford the brand my dad sold and went to wherever gas was the lowest. This caused my dad to stop selling gas. The cost of everything was so much higher he had to move the car service somewhere else. There were several other gas stations that closed soon after my dad did in the same town, and many more in area towns. His car service business is not very good right now but he hopes it gets better soon. With the oil prices so high doing oil changes on cars had to go up and that didn’t help. The heating oil in our house ran out twice last winter. The second time we didn’t have heat for 36 hrs. The cost was $5.25 a gal.

My second concern is the economy. I have heard about stocks dropping, big companies closing or letting a large number of employees go. The government bailed out the big banks and now the car companies want help. More families have lost their homes in foreclosure or filed bankruptcy. In my town several long time businesses have closed. Also, my parents are divorcing. My dad had a second home he had foreclosed on. He has filed bankruptcy and having a difficult time helping with the house I live in. Every issue has happened to my family. The companies that closed once gave their employees health insurance. Most of these people are still unemployed and don’t have any health insurance. They can’t buy it alone because they charge too much. My dad paid for his employee’s health insurance, until September 2008. They no longer have any and neither do we.

So you see Mr. President, I have been personally hit by high gas and oil prices, the tough economy, and high cost of health insurance. Please work very hard to make these three topics work better for everyone. Thank you for reading my concerns and I hope to hear back from you soon.

Sincerely,

Jeffery
