It's coming up to the State of the Nation address time again. If you want to know what the state is, just drive around your neighborhood.
Are the roads in good condition?
Are the road markings clear?
Do the sidewalks have overgrown weeds?
Do you even have side walks?
Are the road sign boards straight, upright and rust free?
Are the traffic lights working?
How about the street lights?
The public parks?
The list goes on and on once you stop to take a look.
Politicians are good at speaking. What they don't understand is that words are useless. Only action matters. Have a look around and see - use your eyes, not your ears.
