The Death of Capitalism?
The dictionary describes Capitalism as an economic system where business (investment, equipment, distribution and wealth) is made and maintained chiefly by private individuals. This is compared to the second economic system "Collectivism." This is where the state owns the means of production, controls the resources, equipment, distribution and wealth. People have been asking me the question "is capitalism dying." Of course this isn't really the heart of the matter. What they really want to know is: "are we going to ...
ScumBall Politics, Our Fault? Really?
So far, all I've heard…"politicians tell lies because the public wants 'Red Meat,' 'If It Bleeds, It Leads,' 'Negative Ads Work'…'Lookit Obama, He's Ahead, His Polls just Shot Up.' Negative ads are one thing, down and dirty ads are another thing, but real low-ball, ad-hominem, scum-sucking, head-slamming, lying attacks, shouldn't even be allowed in the "ball-game," (allowed?). The people of the USA are better than that…why do we want a scum-sucking President running the country?…and it's obvious what I'm talking about. ...
Will America Implode?
Can America implode? Yes, it can, in fact it's doing it right now..."implosion is in process" It has already started…the biggest shock will be felt from 2013-2015, when things visibly start to crumble & collapse...then irregularly through 2035 (and most probably longer). This problem is huge and is being “undersold” to the American people. The fact is shocking that so many people believe the government's informational pap and the cruddy output from the news media. My sister is far from a ...
What will follow Facebook
Facebook is a "place" where friends can find each other, share stuff, express themselves, and leave a legacy (diary, log, blog, photos, etc.). But, there's a part of you that's missing in that formula, and it can't ever be there. Facebook is a business, it exists to exploit your information and make profits from you and others. Facebook's intention is to gather your information, package it, and sell it to others. Your soul can't be on Facebook because it's "Facebook" and ...
The Time of your Life
One way to save Medicare (which is supposed to sink us financially in the next few years) is to fix time. By time I mean the amount of time that elapses between the time of discovery of a disease and its treatment. I also mean the time lost between the onset of a body health malfunction and the discovery or diagnosis of that trouble. If this time were used properly, our healthcare would improve at least an order of magnitude…and ...
When the World Hits Limits
11 June 2012 Last updated at 19:01 ET Resource depletion (From: Richard Anderson, Business Reporter, BBC News) The United Nations says we'll need to produce 70% more food by 2050 to meet the demands of the world's massively expanding population. Nature's sting: The real cost of damaging Planet Earth Increasing food prices, water shortages and soaring energy cost is what this world will face. This nightmare has already begun for a lot of people on earth. Even the rich, living in developed economies, are starting to feel ...
Veracity
Obama's deliberate dishonesty regarding the Supreme Court ruling on Obamacare is appalling. SCOTUS agreed the Commerce Clause could not be used for Obamacare, as many on the left had argued. In other words, the law is unconstitutional if it depends on the Commerce Clause and the individual mandate was a penalty. However, SCOTUS ruled that Obamacare was constitutional precisely because it was not a penalty but was instead a tax.The Chief Justice wrote: "The Government argues that if the commerce power does not support the mandate, we should nonetheless uphold it ...
Obama and Romney
Neither one of these two guys even makes my wish list for President. I guarantee that you're gonna wish you had elected me President instead of either one of them when this is all said and done. Barack Obama is a consummate liar and not to be trusted at all. Mitt Romney is weak, uninformed and bereft of new ideas. He spoke at the NAACP and got booed when he talked about repealing Obamacare. That's understandable, but only because of ...
The Power of the Game
I decided we needed a new guy at the helm (the Presidency of the USA) quite some time ago…it was probably 10 to 20 years ago. But at the time I was involved with other stuff, had my own life to lead, money to earn, business to run, family to care for and be responsible to (and for), and I thought others could manage politics; I didn't like it, it was loud, obnoxious and confrontational, I didn't really like arguments, ...
Unemployed Apply for Disability in Desperation
Workers run out of unemployment, then work part time jobs, sometimes 2 or 3, after long enough they give up and try for Disability. This cycle is getting worse…this article is important for what it implies. Federal Disability Insurance Nears Collapse By Brian Faler on May 31, 2012 For years, members of Congress have dithered over how to shore up the rapidly dwindling coffers of Social Security and Medicare. Yet chances are you haven’t heard any dire warnings about another massive entitlement program ...
