To answer some questions.

Greed, Power and Control is addicting and they crave it more and more.


Have you guys seen how Bill Gates plans to drop the CO2 level? Look at his speech in this year's TED. To have such a powerful guy say that is very scary and it's even scarier when he invests $10 billion in more vaccines.

LOL That sounds tempting (especially after the pizza thing) but I'm too old to run so I'll stand and fight.

Catch a plane . You'll be old sitting in a beach, drinking coconut water, eating fresh fish and watching beutiful people having fun. I don't need a house in Bahia , but my family has a few places that's just amazing.

Damn lutac, some of my fondest memories were at the beach I should have said with that lovely lady you see sitting next to me in my avatar.

I apologize for coming across as harsh. It is a serious question though.

I've been in this hobby for 24 years--and loved every minute of it. Due to the times, however, I'm about to be selling all my stuff so I can pay for the basics like my healthcare. If you know something I don't as far as being able to stay in this hobby while broke, I'd love to hear it.

The question did sound a little like you were calling me out, And yes a was a bit defensive. I apologize as well.

I have no advice to give, everyones situation is different. My wife and I have no debt so we pretty much get by on her Paycheck and my earnings from Ebay. Once I'm able, I look forward to working FT again and hopefully get Insurance myself.
I sincerely wish and hope your situation gets better soon and you get the help you need.

Wow, I did not expect such a response about this.

"This is a big f*****g deal" Yup, the arrogance of these tyrants in the White House is sickening.

I think we are in for some interesting times in 2010, whether good or bad, violent or otherwise. I can't see the American people taking it up the @$$ for much longer from these criminals, somethings gotta give.

I have to know out of curiosity, ZP, PBO and anyone else not from the US, why the interest?

I consider myself among the more enquiring Americans, but I can assure you that 99.44% of us could give a vermin's derriere about what goes on outside our borders. Yes we are that ignorant.

So what is it that makes you guys not only care, but seem to take a passionate stance on things like this? I can't seem to wrap my American mind around that, I'll admit...

Thoughts?

I try hard to come here and talk about RC, but there are things I can't resist, this is one. I can not tell you how thrilled I am to see everyone talking about this in such a manor and that so many see what is really happening. This is the best thing I have seen all week.

Just to add my 2 cents.

I won't talk CBO numbers.

I won't get into the administrations math.

Don't need to talk to the power grab that is occurring.

And never mind about the Constitutionality of all of this.

And how has this worked out else where in the world, most countries are going broke. Too many promises and not enough revenue to meet them.

Never mind what they missed, like opening up commerce state to state, and some tort reform and better pricing rules with medical providers.

I just wish people would think about it in terms of services already received by the government:

Do you like going to the Post Office? (This is an indictment of the system as a whole and a few employees and not all of the individuals that do the work. I have friends that work there and they bust hump.)

Do you like dealing with/ is it easy to get things straight with the IRS/medicare/social security - disability? As an accountant by trade I have seen people do nothing wrong and spend years getting the IRS straight on there filings! <---no exaggeration. Had a client went from a contract employee with a company to a regular employee with the same company and the IRS could not figure out why he did not owe self employment taxes. After 2 years plus and them threatening to seize his assets he had to hire a tax attorney. At his cost of coarse.

Is it fun and trip to look forward to, to go to the DMV? (and yes I am taking aim at all of the DMV I hate that freakin place, it is the black hole of time.)

Would you like to rely on the VA for your health care?

Do you think the public schools do a good job in your opinion? Where I live we spend about 15K per child, 110 million on 2 new high schools.....51% graduation rate. And many of them can't functionally do math, read or write. And with the budget short falls in our schools here, so far the only programs they are sure to get rid of are the programs for accelerated/gifted/college bound students! <-----can't punish success fast enough.

Other than our brave men and women in the military the government does nothing well to me.

And don't let the avatar fool you, I am just as feed up with Republicans as I am Democrats! Nothing but a bunch of liars and whores.

Government has its place, but not entangled in our lives like this!

Must be because countries like Canada, half of the news is from the USA issues alone, so I guess we Canadians think the US is the bigger brother of us (albeit the brother that doesn't acknowledge us). We talk about the US just as much as Canadian politics up here, probably 50-50, after all, what affects you will affect us.

I probably know more about American history than Canadian history. Off the forum I am just a vocal about our own issues with our government (believe me, they are almost as bad)... I have beef with government in general, and on this forum, majority of you are Americans; if it were based in another country I could do the same to that government... they are simply all criminals (most), and all the countries that are striving for evolving human rights and freedoms like Iran, Venezuela, and others, are in the cross hairs of the NWO, are demonized, and outright lies are pinned on them using the mass media.

I don't know, what else do you want me to say?

Bondo, did I say something inappropriate?
