After-The Election





The Election process is the greatest exercise of our Democracy. It gets us a great reward. 
Some may have been disappointed at the 2012 outcome... 50 Millions of them.

However we put our foot down, drawn a line in the sand.

We need and want:
Reinventing the US Economy
jobs for everyone who needs it
Strengthen the Social network for retired American citizens in living expenses and or Healthcare.

  • No more war, in Afghanistan, Iraqi, Syria, or Iran.  No more killing, no more losses of young people's lives, limbs, and no more families destroyed.
  • No more dependence on foreign oil. A barrel that reached $147 at one point.
  • No more collapse of the economy and housing market. No more Banks playing the "now you see now you don't".
  • No fiscal Cliff.
  • No more US huge debt.
Not much to ask for, is isn't it?

We gave the officials three years to achieve it or we vote them out.

.Sandy's wrath.




The impact of huracaine Sandy was beyond expectation. Powerfull, destructive wind and water. Some areas were on fire, houses washed away, electrical grid damaged, transportation stopped and hospitals flooded.  Millions are in so much trouble.         

We looked to the government for immediate relief.

Food to the hungry, water to the thirsty, shelter to those without, cloths to the needy, hospital to the sick, and home visit to the elderly. 

35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me." 

Big Government or not .. pay your fair share, and donate some extra to the relief efforts. You and your loved ones are lucky.... survived.

Romney's Agenda

 






Romney's proposal...
*"Tax reduction 20%" across the board?!!! a 5 trillion Dollars hole. This is not for you, the little people or the 47%.
*Healthcare: abolish the affordable act, and create a new healthcare for private healthcare Insurances to compete.
*Medicare: Vouchers, current senior may not be impacted!!!?
*Banks regulations to be reduced, lower burden on the financial institutions, back to laverage of 40 to 1.
*Women's health is controlled by electd officials, not the Supreme Court.
*Iran must not have "Weapons of Mass destruction". Memories of Iraqu's story.
Sound familiar to "Bush the second". Same talk, same idea, and same view. Watch for the outcome.
*Create 12 million jobs.

In 2008, US government had to gaurantee the money market, Fannie and Freddie, AIG, the big banks, and the auto industries. With that, lehman Brothers, Country Wide, Merrill Lynch, Washington Mutual, others evaporated, and the worse housing bubble ever. A loss of five Trillion dollars.

You may not have realized the financial collapse then but it did happen and would have wiped everyone out and I mean everyone around the globe. As the fed chairman said "By Monday we would not have an Economy...!!!!"

The Invisible...!




The Good Samaritan theory established more than 2000 years ago.

Adam Smith published his theory of economics "the invisible hand" in 1776. A free market where you buy what you want and others manufacture what they want the way they like. This will help the society where all benefit.

To avoid having extra supply in one location, roads, trucks, railroads, ...etc. were built.

Now the demand on potatos equal the supply in Idaho as well as in New York. More profit to the grower and to the market.

In the process, a new class of people fell off the wagon, and landed in the bottom of the society. The society and the individuals have responsibilities towards the less fortunate. 

"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, "I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

So  "promise you wouldn't forget me... ever" Just a thought.

Find Yourself..


We all watched and enjoyed the 2012 London Olympics. Young people pushing themselves in training, exercises for years to appear for few minutes. Hard work no doubt.

Nothing happens without hard work. But nothing can stop someone from achieving the goal if they decided to.

The champion of Soma wrestling, a Japanese dominant sports, is an American young athlete.

The best Golf player in the world, in a white dominant competition, is a young man with an African American father and an Asian Mother.

The best music wrapper, a music populated by African American singers, is a white man with fantastic music and much follower.

Earlier, the best basketball player was a short man of 6 Feet tall, in a sport of tall men of 6.8 feet minimum.

The best soccer player in the world was a short and slightly over the regular weight, Argentinian player. The best current soccer player is a short skinnier Argentinian player also.

The President of the USA, in a white, predominant population, is Barak Obama, born to a black father and a white mother.

Life, to many, is unfair or may be fair but we couldn't understand it. There is  something out in the world for you. Go create it, study it, initiate it, help others with it, and you will find yourself.

The Affordable Act



 The Supreme Court upheld the new law against all odds and expectation. 

For those who are young and "restless", the healthcare Insurance will have minimal plan such as catastrophic coverage and once a year physician visit.

Businesses will include exercise gems all over the place and encourage the employees to workout.

Overweight and Smokers will lose money and  jobs to fit and non smokers applicants.

Advanced diseases treated at the emergency room cost thousands fold the cost of just visiting a physician before it got so complicated.

More people will be insured, less would be treated on someone's else expenses. The overall is healthy nation and lower healthcare cost.     In addition Less Fraud on Medicare and Medicaid.

The economic pie will be modified with prices of  services and many items will have to adjust.

The Republican machines name it "Obama Care".  Rush  who wanted Pres. Obama to fail, is fleeing to ...... ?  Canada has a single payer system!!!!!!

Father's Day...*!


Image result for father's day cartoon

One night a father overheard his son pray: Dear God, Make me the kind of man my Daddy is.

Later that night, the Father prayed, Dear God, Make me the kind of man my son wants me to be.

Any man can be a father, but it takes a special person to be a dad.
Proverb.   Just a thought.

Penguins for sale-Facebook





ID theft solutions


The Facebook IPO was introduced recently at $38 a Share. The price is expected to double the first few days. The 500 million shares were sold  but most can't be re sold before 3 months.

As the shares started selling, a realization that the prices are not getting off the ground. So the under writers tried to hold the prices at the $38 level.... reduce the available shares, the computers were down for few hours.
As a result, those who ordered  thousands of shares, to sell in few minutes later, couldn't find out if they are long or short and what profit or loss they accrued.
Now many are suing to recope the losses and many will get money back.

What a clean honest operation that lead to someone making windfall on the back of those who thought the system is fair.

The fair value today of FB , according to me, is $15/share.. so go figure.

Please note free market rely on Demand and Supply. Some may be able to influence the balance at least for a short period of time, enough for you to loose your Penguin.

Success..


To laugh often and much;
to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends.

To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others;
to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;
To know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
