I was listening to lou Dobbs

I was listening to Lou Dobbs the other night and he brought up the subject of the unequal pay between company workers and the Ceos ,managers and directors that sometimes get millions in salaries and bonusses. some of them make as much in one day as the workrs do in A year. That is exactly what I have beentrying to get acrost for years.We are creating A class of multi millionais and billionairs at the expence of the general public.And A very simple soloution to the problem would be what I have been recomending for years.Raise the personal incone tax on individuals one percent for every100 thousand dollars after the first 250 thousand up to 90 percent.That would take care of A lot of our problems. We could pay off the national debt and return the excess money back to the states to use for projects that would help the general public. WE could raise the tax credit on capital purchases. Then the people that are getting all this money .If they knew they were going to pay most of it out in taxes would spend it on capital purchases to expand their operations . There by creating more jobs so more people would be paying taxes and we wouldnt have to be paying out so much in unimployment benefits The country and everybody in it would benefit.The only reason we can't get this done is because we have to many rich people in washington making our laws and they make the laws to protect themselves and their rich friends that help keep them in office.My opinion by John Zilverberg

Afghanistan in the News

Afghanistan has been in the news a lot lately and some people are thinking we should get out of there. It sure would be nice if we could bring all of our troops home, but consider the consequences. Maybe if we were not fighting our enemies over there we might be fighting them here at home. Just think how many people would be getting killed and how much of our infrastructure would be destroyed. These people hate us and they are not going to leave us alone if we go home. Remember they attacked us several different places and we didn’t do anything about it. So they attacked us here at home and in one sweep killed 3000 innocent people and did billions of dollars in damages. The object of the Muslims is to control the world and they won’t stop at anything to accomplish that. Their bible says all Christians must be eliminated and they have been trying to do that for a thousand years. The Bush policies have kept us safe here at home up to now but we better not let our guard down. There are cells in this country right now that would destroy us as a nation if they could or can.

Unless our law makers in Washington get realistic and do something about our national debt this country is going to be in real trouble like you have never seen before. The Govenment paid 190 billion interest on the national debt this year and at the rate washington is spending our money it will soon be double that. No company or government can exist very long spending more money then it takes in.Obama says we are making headway on the recession . But we are going deeper in debt all the time and our unemployment rate is at19.8 percent.We are loosing jobs because our wages are to high and we can not compete in the world markets. Every time we raise the minimum wage our cost of living goes up and more of our jobs go oversea where the cheap labor is. Now the Unions are pushing hard to get the law passed that would that would eliminate the use of the secret ballot in union elections. That in effect would force everybody to join the union or face the consequences which could be very serious as we have seen in the past.If we had implimented My recomended plan to raise the income tax on personal incomes one percent for every 100 thousand dollars after the firs 250 thousand we wouldnt have all this national debt and maybe not even the recession.Also it would help if we had all the taxes owed on the money the multi millionairs and billionairs have hidden in overseas banks. we owe China alone 800 billion .The mexicans have already taken over A big share of our language . maybe China will be next.

One of the high cost of our medical bills is caused by the high cost of the liability insurance of the phasitions and the hospitals.Which is caused by the extrmly high awards given to the plaintifs by jurys. i have always thought there should be some kind of limit set on these awards. Notthat doctors or anybody else shouldnt be respponsible for their mistakes and made to pay for them.but many of the awards to plaintifs in many cases are exccesive Not only in medical cases but others as well.Some jurys seem to think there is no limit to what companies or doctors can pay. One example is the case where A woman ordered A cup of coffee inMcDonalds and spilled it in her lamp burning herself. and A jury awarded her five million dollars.If you order coffee you expect it to be hot and if you spill it on yourself that sure isnt the establishments fault.I suppoe everybody herd the presidents speach to the gay community.It seems he wants to change the definition of the word marriage.THe dictionary says the word marriage is the union between A man And A woman. A union in my opinion between two people of the same sex would be A partnership.I would presume A definition of marriage would include the ability to produce children and create A family.
