BRIDGE TO NOWHERE

Congress has a very low opinion rating according to polls. Even at the end of Bush’s term he had a higher opinion rating than Congress. At one point Congress’ polls number fell into the single digit area. But yet we continue to elect the same politicians to office, why? The only reason I can come up with is that politicians from states other than our own are the problem. Our politicians are doing a good job. It’s the other states elected officials that are causing the problems. After all don’t our politicians bring home the pork for us, sure it’s just a form of vote buying, but who cares that we get a bridge to nowhere, it is our tax dollars isn’t it? Ok so it’s tax dollars from some folks from a few other states, but I’m sure they don’t mind helping us out. Who knows maybe years down the road the bridge to nowhere might go somewhere.

NATIONAL HEALTH CARE

Looks like National Health Care is running into opposition. Not surprising when one considers the fast track it’s on. Some think things are moving to quickly for such an important bill. Others think it’s just too expensive. Some without health care do not like the government stating they have no choice they have to sign up or else. The majority of working people have some form of health care and the majority that do are against a national health care system. From those leaking out details indicate national health care will kill the private sector leaving the national plan as the only plan. And some resent the fact that congress has already opted themselves out of any national plan. I guess they know they are about to pass a bill that bears nothing but ill wind for the masses and they better opt out of it in lieu of a congress only plan. A case of what is good for the politician and let the little people can just eat cake.

INFLATION

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke sought to assure Wall Street and Congress Tuesday that the Fed will be able to reel in its extraordinary economic stimulus and prevent a flare up of inflation when the recovery is more firmly rooted. Hope we can!

Kentucky's Worst Politician For Raising Taxes

Vote against this man who voted for the largest tax increase in Kentucky's history. With unemployment hitting better than 10% for Kentucky, he thought it better for himself to vote on higher taxes than worry with what the people of Kentucky need - LESS TAXES.

NEED HELP?

Old Radio Shows is a hobby for me. I sold my first copy of an old radio show (War Of The Worlds) over the internet before there were web browsers, when there was just the "C:/" prompt and everything was text only on a black and white screen, even before there were "Bulletin Boards".

It's never been a money making business, what I do make from the website goes to cover expenses, website fees, blank CDs, mailing boxes, postage, etc. It's just a fun thing to be doing. Since the current websites have been running I've had the pleasure to talk with or email with some of the decendents of past performers. The most notable being Robert Mitchum's son. I've supplied to Good Morning America with material, the NY State Museum, WRC, even to a radio station in Australia when they found themselves in sort of a bind for a town hall show they were going to put on. A few of the emails I've recieved were those that really tugged at the heart strings.

Getting back to the subject, on the websites you can find find my telephone number that you can call me on if you need help of any kind. You can also email me. If you are not sure about anything it's better to email me or call me. I go by the old moto, "The Customer Is Always Right".

GENE THERAPY

I was thinking of starting a new website and non-profit organization. The organization would be dedicated to the study of that gene that affects our politicians in Washington. I believe the politicians suffer from a defective gene that causes them to know not what they do. You have to admit they do come up with some really off-the-wall things and they are of the opinion that we do not have the mental ability to handle our own money.
I would like to hear your thoughts on this, should a website be started and if so, what to call the non-profit organization.

TAX DEDUCTIONS

Just a thought - lets keep track how much money the US Government is loosing in this stimulus thing. The GAO already admits to 20 or so Billion has just vanished. What I’m thinking is this, add up all the coins that Government says they have no idea where they are at, count that as a lose, divided it by the number of tax payers, then each tax payer write in on their 2010 tax returns as a lose. After all it is our US taxpayers money the government did loose.
