If taxation without representation was not fair then why is representation without taxation not equally as illegal and wrong? Why are my tax dollars going to Iraq and for reconstruction efforts in Iraq all the while my roads are in disrepair, my cost of living is skyrocketing, and the price of a gallon of gas [...]
How low can you go, it used to be a mamba line but not it has become a way of life. Poison toothpaste; lead tainted toys, faulty pipes, and now the Chinese are again being accused of killing Americans. Chinese officials voiced doubts that an impurity identified in a blood thinner called heparin was the [...]
Clean coal is the answer to Americans’ energy issues and if you think any different you may be the exact type of idiot that is leading to the demise of America. We must do all we can to keep energy clean and clean coal is the key to this initiative and the only ones saying [...]
Free Trade for America has a price, its our prosperity and jobs. Let me get this straight, we want to have free trade with Columbia, which is a country who suppresses any unionization and which has an economy which is run in a more communistic fashion than is Soviet Russia or Communist China. Is this [...]
If Corporate America is so concerned with keeping the world environmentally safe then why are they so intent on getting into China who is now the worlds worst polluter? Hypocracy at its finest.
When the starving and poor come looking for money and food who do you think they will look for, not their poor or struggling neighbors, they will hit the heights and upper class suburbs, so if the rich think they are safe from the poor and struggling middle class they better think again. Globalization [...]
Hillary Clinton talks about leveling the economic trade field with China and her speech makes real sense.
The Detroit Tigers are 2 and 10 and yet many say that is a good thing because they would rather lose now than later in the season, these are the same idiots who say that the American economy will rebound astoundingly in 2009. Can someone, anyone, tell me the correlation between losing and eventually coming [...]
Big Oil companies are not the only ones enjoying oil riches, so is Iraq, which begs the question, why are American taxpayers struggling when Iraqis are living high on the hog at our expense. Talk about double jeopardy, Americans are paying for rebuilding efforts in Iraq and buying American and Iraqi forces in Iraq oil [...]
The problem with the Detroit Tigers is a microcosm of the problems facing all of us as Americans. See here in Detroit we have the second highest paid team in baseball and much like our politicians in America; we have the best paid players in the game. However, much like our politicians we here in [...]
The world’s problems will soon be exacerbated by the spread of industrialization and modernization through the so-called global economy. The world’s water supply, as well as the food sources in the water supply, are being stretched to thin to fast and we will all pay a price if globalization and modernization do not slow down. [...]
If you don’t think you are Chinese or at least contr5olled partly by the Chinese government, then you may be mistaken. How can this be when you live here in America? It’s because we have let China control our policies and now we are so indebted to them they want to start call some shots [...]
Just what is getting done in Washington to help you as an American? Do you know, do you really know? Well let’s think about this. Lawmakers grilled oil executives from the world’s five largest publicly traded oil companies during the week and other than criticizing them for taking tax subsidies, and not investing in renewable [...]
When a ship is sinking I always thought the morally correct thing to do was save the woman and children first. However, it appears that our modern Government is more apt to bail out Big Businesses such as Bear Sterns and others rather than to save the poor citizens of America caught up in this [...]
I think we are all tired of hearing about gains in Iraq, strides in Afghanistan, growing economy in he middle East, we want part of this positive pie and it begins right here at home. If we can finance improvement half way aroudn the world we can finance it right here at home. We have [...]
In case anyone has not noticed, America’s biggest fears should not be some bicycle strapped or camel riding suicide bombing Ji-Had Johammed idiot in the Middle East; it should be the highly technically advanced and manufacturing juggernauts of Russia and China. The US has just caught up with some individuals that sold top secret information [...]
There is a gigantic issue which has really ticked me off today, it is the statement by a Chinese official in regards to the military equipment issue with Taiwan. The Chinese official states “We … demand the U.S. side thoroughly investigate this matter, and report to China in a timely matter the details of the [...]
We are always so quick to say politicians are all crooked or that politicians only work for Big Business but we must say that with a caveat, we are the ones who elect these politicians. From the President right down to the City Council, we vote the good ones in and we vote the bad ones in so maybe its time we became more educated voters. You would think that after Rostenkowski and Delay and Marion Barry that the election of a Mayor would no longer be take so lightly but apparently the city of Detroit has bucked this trend by casting their lot with the so-called Hip-Hop Mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick, and yet they wonder why their lives are in disarray and their hope for a bright future is dimmed.
See in Detroit, those who can’t lead look to lay blame and this problem is not just a Detroit problem it is becoming an American problem, but for now let’s just focus on Detroit. When the Mayor knew he was gonna get nailed he went on the attack and used the race card, he tried the OJ tactic. However, his using of the words lynch mob mentality and the ‘N’ word backfired on him and riled up many Detroiters. The mayor stated that soon after some of his sensual text messages were released that many started calling him Nigger.
