Debt or Debit
Fundamentally, no one knows exactly how much gold is inventory at Fort Knox, Kentucky; it is Top Secret. So secret only a few know the bottom line figures. The fact of the matter is our country is undecisive on how to curve the spending frensey and shrink the national debt. Politicians are battling before the United States defaults on their bills for the first time in history,Aigust 1, 2011.
Hypothetically there is Zillions of Dollars worth of gold in the United States Treasury. One way to achieve that estimate is the price of gold today it has quadrupled in just the last twenty years, a known fact. Which leads me to another conspiracy theory? Why the smoke screen, why are we telling the public we have no money to pay our bills as of August 2011? I think it is about raising taxes and for a good reason, let me explain. I believe we have Zillions of Dollars in gold. The gold deposits have not dried up, there is still gold mining in production and the United States will continuously purchase gold to average the cost of gold inventoried in our Treasury leaving the United States with a healthy load of cash. However to stay at this level of enrichment we need to raise the cost of living as these problems exist so does the price of labor to full fill these requirements. This is where the conspiracy lies.
Pitifully our nation is decaying right under our feet. The roads and bridges need monstrous amounts of attention as millions of people drive to and from work daily. While we are at work or sleeping thousands of trucks deliver our fuel to gas stations and food to our grocers daily, the roads and bridges are under stress. We overlook the cost of maintenance to all these demanding issues, as we need to stay abreast of our needs to maintain the necessities that demand of our great infrastructure countrywide, from sea to shining sea. There are other countries that have exuberant amounts of taxes, taxing the hell out of their people however; they still manage to maintain a culture. I believe I read these counries have a thirty-five per cent goernment tax rate. China comes to mind, and either Greenland or Iceland probably both of them as welI as others. That point is moot the point of the matter is they survive. The Government needs the money to create roads, Fire Departments, pipelines for aqueducts, sewage and electrical grids that our country so desperately needs.
How do you submit an invoice to the people without causing an up rise; create conflict. The President vowed not to raise taxes and is determined to show he is serious. We are poor there is nothing else we can do; look we even borrow money from China, we hear from the media.
Honesty would be a better approach.
Realistically if something is not accomplished, a hamburger will cost $34 someday. As the labor rises so does our food production and the cost to manufacture everyday household items like refrigerators, ovens, cars, fans, building expenses its endless to mention a few.
Why the aggression, to stay the most powerful nation in the world. America has become the worlds police. The United Nations aliance depends on our protection, if not armegedon is possible with the insanity like jihad, a muslim holy war, for instance.
How did things get so out of hand, this an assumption but I will take a swing at it. For the last twenty years America has been at war, non stop I might add and a costly project. President Clinton did nothing for our defense systems in fact totally ignored it sliding the envelope to President G. W. Bush costing his Administration and taxpayers billions of dollars.. Then back to the Democrats and President Obama for his great giveaway. First the cars then allowing people to be on unemployment for two and a half years.
Historically the electronic age that started in the late nineteen eighties was a smoking mirror and resembled the catastrophe of the introduction to the radio in the late nineteen twenties that caused Wall Street to crash. It was President W. J. Clinton that built the economy he rode the wave.
Meanwhile America thinks we are in the largest boom of our life as the people live beyond their means. The economy escalates and the real estate blunder begins to emerge as the immigrants have snuck in the back door and have not paid taxes that soar into the millions of missed revenue. Regardless of the snafu, as we approach another election year ask yourself this question, would you do it any other way. This is not about us it is for our future, our children’s children; for safety and security, schools and education, food and growth for our nation, the health and prosperity of our elders and life will go on for al the others.

Food for Thought: Our Civil Right
This week passed I received an email stating Yahoo is relinquishing their blogging service by May 2011; and how I support their managerial decision to do so. The information highway has lost some of its charisma in the past year or more noticeably in the last few months withholding our right to the First Amendment, Freedom of Speech. In the last year I can not believe how many articles have been deleted between Yahoo and Facebook. However said it is my opinion and I am entitled to an opinion whether or not the people agree or disagree is not their decision but by ‘The People’ and they have the right to draw their own conclusion by what they have read however introduced at least the people are informed and from there cn debate among their peers.
The astonishing quondam that is so bothersome is just how many people are not up to date with the facts that are missed daily hidden behind the drama and chaos that effect our lives substantially that no one knows the real outcome of the political agenda or the economic woes stressed by overseas blunders and disasters alike. It is unfortunate the people do not know how such things effect our lives n a regular basis until it hits our pockets.
It is the spark of conversation and the debate of others opinion that moves this country and to not inform the people with new ideas whether or not it is right or wrong is a conflict of freedom of speech. And any obstruction thereof then we are no better off then what is happening today in the middle east. We have had our civil war in the United States of America. We have fought for the freedom of speech. Unfortunately, America is breeding an un intelligent political minded society making it easy for our government to do what and how they please creating a turmoil that the people in the middle east are trying to escape from.
Support the First Amendment and fight for your right to speak, exercise thought, and debate the possibilities. Freedom of Speech is your civil right.

Integrity
What does the word integrity mean to you? Integrity is a powerful word, you have to have integrity in your life.
Not to be misconstrued I looked it up, as the definition states: adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty; and, the state of being whole, entire, or undiminished: to preserve the in whole empire. And another source, it is a concept of consistency of actions, values, methods, measures, principles, and expectations.
In layman’s terms it means to be righteous to yourself, say what you mean and do just that. Do not be dishonest to yourself and others.
My greatest pet peeve is integrity. I want your trust even if I do not trust you. I say what I mean and stand behind my word and I want that just from you. Humbly I ask is that to much..
It is annoying to listen to people talk at times, no actually it makes me angry. You know what I’m saying, followed by, you know what I mean or not finishing the fragmented sentence with, I mean. No I don’t, what are you saying and what do you mean. No wait, thank you I will ask someone else. If you are commonly ignored maybe you should reconsider what you say to people and discover integrity.
Once I discover someone does not tell the truth you have lost my interest at times long before it ever got started. I want integrity in all my relationships and friendships. it’s the principal of the matter.

a prayer for peace
I pray for those of ours to have no pain
We know that today remains the same
As we fill our lives with daily cheer
There is many OLord that live in fear
As we ask from you our daily bread
There are many that lay helplessly dead
As the rest of us together will pray at least
We ask from you O Heavenly Father Peace
We know that today remains the same
As we fill our lives with daily cheer
There is many OLord that live in fear
As we ask from you our daily bread
There are many that lay helplessly dead
As the rest of us together will pray at least
We ask from you O Heavenly Father Peace
We The People
Recently I saw a poll implying there are overwhelming numbers of Immigrants that call the United States their home weather or not its temporary is no concern of mine;; what I find irritating is the fact we do not welcome them?
What irritates me more is the millions of dollars our beloved country pans out to foreign countries that do not want to have anything to do with the United States, its crippling to say the least, food and healthcare follow this thought.
If a group of people from any nation, bringing with them their culture, what America thrives on indecently that are willing to work filling in the work our people refuse to do, where s the problem?
To my surprise I have heard from one to an immigrant, speak English, and even the ignorance of , hey Brazilian! By the way, its Brasilero. However, what if they weren?t Brazilian but Peruvian? It is not correct to say, hey Asian, but you know that because we covered that in the early Eighties when Americans started practicing politically correctness, so why the surge of impoliteness?
I know why/? The bottom line is we are lazy! We have gotten soft over the years relying on unemployment, healthcare, and other state funded benefits. A strong economy, companies with lots of business both domestic and export, that offer vacations, sick days and personal time. Take these all away and more you will understand the influx of immigrants in our country.
Truly it astonishes me because when I was a kid we learned Latin in school, the schools had discarded the language as I entered high school? As the curriculum changed requiring four years of English and two years of a foreign language, either German, French or Spanish were needed to graduate was required at the time I finished high school? Respectfully, you make yourself look ignorant not learning in school another language, but don? fret these immigrants can speak English too. In their own country most are very educated and capable of having blue collar and white collar employment where they are from? It is our University standards that is holding them back from dominance in the workplace?
Immigrants, have brought to our country what our great nation is made of, leaving behind their own homeland for a prosperous life in the United States of America. Of which I might add are our neighbors bordering the U.S. to the south. They bring culture, language and strong working ethics much of what our country lacks now?
This last generation has watch their single parent working hard putting in long hours, never home with little benefits on the table. Quietly they objected starting out of high school, ?I will not work for less then ten dollars an hour,? I hae heard them say. Forcing employers to cutback benefits like healthcare, dental alike? Setting aside jobs in the intern that are less then minimum wage which have created a gap in the workplace where the immigrants are filling the void.
Informatively I have learned in the news polls that most Americans approve of immigration reform. And they support the workplace, taking up the slack in overtime such as healthcare, i.e., hospitals, nursing facilities where time is demanding.
Personally I embrace their culture, the food, song, and dance. American people seem unhappy to me as a whole for many years, where as the immigrants bring to the table what maybe the other immigrants have in the past. However, I am sure we will get over this one day too as we have in the past and welcome our neighbors to the south sharing their freedom of speech through language, song and dance and we will be friends forever; e nos fica amigos para sempri!

Why?
I am dumbfounded by the politicians in our country. We don?t seem as united as we should, foremost who should we blame the Republicans, the Democrats or the Independents?
Our country was built on pride at one time. We were strong, invincible and feared by many world wide. Proud of dying for what America stood for, Freedom. Our country was made from the American Indian, and Cowboys, Blacks, settlers from Italy, Ireland, Germany, France, China, Japan, people world wide. We were quick to point a finger hanging signs like, ?Irish need not apply;? also pointing the finger at the Japanese and Germans during the second world war. We as Americans bonded living together forming a country united.
The Republicans have always stood for business, manufacturing, build employment, the economy, work and reap the benefits. We were blue collar workers sweating American Pride building neighborhood from sea to shining sea. The Party stood strong until there was a correction in the stock market from a sag in the economy, the Bulls lost control. By that time most manufacturers were top heavy any way which gave them a reason to downsize; did the Republican party slipped?
No problem, the Democrats stood strong jumping in to give away the hard earned surplus created by the richly fulfilled economy helping those in need handing out cash for months on end for those not able to get a job, or lazy soaking the program until their funds ran out? I?m tired of hearing, I receive more from state unemployment than when I was working; where is your pride?
Now we have the Independents, I was once one, and admit I am ashamed at the fact as well. These people are changing the course of America, by means of indecisiveness I might add. These are the Soccer Moms, the Tree Huggers and the people that do not want to spank their children or keep score in fear of inflicting low self esteem on their children? Floaters I call them, incapable of making a decision and sticking to it then backing out of it at the sign of distress. This is our weakest link.
Our Government in tern is indecisive in the Senate and the House respectfully from Party Sliders, Floaters, changing the course of Politics; you disagree? No disrespect to our President but this pass election was not all Dems, it was the Floaters jumping on the ban wagon. Where are all his supporters now? As I mentioned, the first sign of distress they hide. ?We the People? are losing trust in our Government.
Living in Massachusetts it has been a standing joke with me, supposedly this is the Kennedy State, I disagree. However, start a conversation in politics and no one will admit they are Kennedy supporters; they didn?t vote for him! Again, no disrespect for Uncle Teddy, please; may he rest in Peace. However, my point is the nation has adopted this means of politics, floaters?
Then we have the Lawmakers on the hill filibustering over Laws and hearings of sports and steroids, let the people decide that. Remember what happened the last strike, what happened to the Montreal Expos-politics! The people were not happy and did not go to te games, it will happen. Let the sports gurus handle their own issues, We the People? have political concerns. Again, floaters, where is your backbone?
Alright Mr. President your first year is up? Enough worrying about text messaging while driving and lets get on with the politics and fundamentals that operate this country, and expose of the terrorism, establish healthcare, fix the unemployment, repair the economy, and stop giving our money to nations that do not like us, lets rebuild our nation?
There is much to be done in this country; water in the west for crops domestic and export; healthcare, research for disease control; alternative fuels, exploration of oil, oil refinery; our own homeless people and those in the wake of Katrina, let us be done with the foreign policy trash-they do not like the U.S.!

Forgotten Words
Have you ever said something you wished you could take back for instance left a message on a voice recorder for someone that did not make sense?
I woke today with a quote from President Obama, as reported on one of the news channels, he said I would rather be a good one term President verses a mediocre two term President.
Forgive me Mr. President however, by the people who vote you in to your position wouldn't you have to be a good President to be a two term President?
In addition to your remark and prior to
where was your Press Secretary? I do not think he would have let you say that as flamboyant as it came out-oops!
I believe it is comments of this nature that throw the pollsters over the edge. In my estimate you lost another three percentage points on the polls however, there is an amazing grace here, maybe the people that voted you in office did not understand that comment either and took that remark as an anti-bush bashing statement?
Mr. President in all due respect you are a mediocre President in addition time is on your side which may be your saving grace. However your power will reign on for decades more which might be when your light will really shine like mediocre Presidents of the past.
