Some of the supper rich people in this country are putting on A lot of pressure to permantly eliminate the inheritance tax or death tax as they like to call it because it sounds bad.Dont let anybody kid you we already have A six million exemption so the only people it is going to help is the supper rich.If you made that much money in this country while you were alive you ought to be willing to give some of it back when you die.If you have heirs that you feel you owe something to you better take care of that while you are still alive. A vote to eliminate the inheritance tax is A vote to make the supper rich even ritcher. The government needs taxes to operate.We demand A lot of services from our government and they have to be paid for.We are running A defficet government and no government or anybody else can exist very long that way.We have A national debt that is costing us billions in interest and now we are trying to ad A health plan that is going to add another trillion to that.

why cant congress pass A law to make english the official language of the U.S. Eighty percent of the voting bublic is in favor of it so what is the hold up.Everybody better get on their senators and congressmen to get that law passed. There are at least thirty plus languages in the world and we couldnt afford to print all official corespondece and public documents in that many languages.And if we print them in one or two extra languages that would be discrimitation which is against the law.Besides one nation with one language will help keep the country unified . If we have diffrent ethnic groups speaking diffrent languages that will eventualy leed to discord like is happening in other countries where diffrent ethnic groups,clans or thibes whatever you want to call them are fighting each other.

question. Is the recession getting better or worse. A lot of people are still losing their jobs.And some of the athorities are talking about the danger of inflation. It seems like with the labor unions making some concessions and all the people out of jobs willing to work for less prices should go down instead of up.On the other hand all these unemployed people have to be taken care of .Those unemployment payments are adding up to A big bill.Add the universal health care bill they are trying to push thru congress .That is another big bill that is going to have to be paid and the only way they are going to get paid is by raising taxes . Not on the companies that are prviding the jobs but on the individuals that are taking the big profits out of the companies. America has been the land of oppertunity but we can no longer afford all the multi millionairs and billionairs that are making the big bucks at the expence of the general public .We are in A world market now .A world where we are saving more babies and people are living longer.A world that is fast becoming over populated. Our law makers better be working on some answers .Not creating more problems. Of course if we get an attomic war started that would probably eliminate most of the people on this world.

I see Obama wants to charge busineses $750. for each employee not covered by health insurance to get the money to pay for unemployment benefits.That is going to put quite A financial strain on the companies and probably force some of them out of busines thereby creating more unimployment.Also at the price of health care these days I dont believe companies could afford to furnish health insurance for $750. A month so the companies that could afford it would just pay the $750. and let the government buy the insurance that would probably cost between three and five thousand dollars per family so that would soon add up to another big bill to add to the national debt. It would be A lot smarter and more practical to raise the top bracket of the personal income taxes on the individuals that are taking the big bucks out of the companies . I join A lot of other people that are sick of hearing about michel Jackson.there must be some other news more important then the death of one man.there are A lot of good men dying every day.A lot of them just as important to this world as Michel Jackson. If the president of the U. S. died I doubt if he would get that much media coverage. My opinion by John Zilverberg

Governor Sanford
South Carolina governor Sanford, a married man with four children lies about where he is going and disappears for a week to spend with another woman. If you are a governor, you took on a job and you owe it to the public that elected you to do that job. You also have a responsibility to your family. This man is not fit to be governor. In fact, he is not fit to hold any responsible job. He should be removed from office at once.
I see where the United Auto Workers Union made some concessions to General Motors, thereby making it practical for the company to build 51,000 cars in the United States instead of in China as originally planned, thereby saving a lot of jobs. I am glad the Union finally got the message that it is better to have a job at $20 an hour than at $30 an hour.
