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 [...]
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 [...]
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.
The 2008 Olympics will soon be held in Communist China, not China as Big Business wants you to call it, rather the true name, Communist China and the biggest story heading into the Communist Chinese Olympics was provided to us despite the fact that the Chinese Government is doing all it can to censor the [...]
The reason the American economy is a mess and foreclosures are occurring is for one reason and one reason only, job losses. With no jobs we cannot earn to buy nor can we afford our house payments and this results in a sluggish economy and a high foreclosure rate. However, Big business does not see [...]
At the rate oil is going up hell might just freeze over or at least the devil may be turning down the heat. Is this the despair I a working Middle Class citizen is to endure the rest of my life, the angst of gas prices. If the stock market and economy are down I get screwed because the rich people put their money in oil futures and thus the price of gas goes higher. And then if the economy goes higher I get screwed again because then the use and consumption supposedly goes up and again the price of gas rises for me.
Most Middle Class workers like myself cannot afford to buy oil futures in the commodities market and therefore we get taken by the rich who could care less about high gas prices because they are hedged by their ownership of oil futures. The oil futures market has become the new legal pyramid scam for the globally rich who are putting it to the globally Poor and Middle Class. How can something so vital be manipulated for profit so easily and maliciously? What can be done about it, are we to eventually become indentured servants because we have to drive our cars to work or to the hospital? Please tell me there is some form of sanity that will eventually prevail. OPEC lives by the protection American Armed Forces provides for them, all but Valenzuela, and yet America sees none of the benefit.
Those who say Ralph Nader cost a Presidency are idiots. If Ralph Nader gets a vote its because the vote was not won by any of the other candidates other than Nader and that is not Nader’s fault. Ralph Nader plays devil’s advocate for the benefit of Americans and yet all Americans do is mock [...]
Obama wants to repeal NAFTA and on this statement alone he has gained hundreds of thousands of votes, I think Obama understands that American jobs are what will keep America strong and this is definitely the right policy. In contrast all the Republicans are doing is regurgitating some useless statement about cutting and running in [...]
While the good ol’ boys worry about Toyota winning the Daytona 500 what they really need to worry about is that GM, Ford, and Chrysler are creating more jobs overseas than they are in North America combined. It is the good ol’ boy mentality that is destroying the American dream not because of what it [...]
Does more of the same scare anyone else? The Republicans are saying they will pick up where President Bush leaves off and they will continue on with the policies that he started. I think a failed economy and a no point war are two policies which not only need to be changed but must be [...]
