CAFR: US agencies have billions, trillions in investments while crying budget deficits ... - 0 views
-
What CAFRs reveal is a communist-style policy whereby the US taxpayers surrender enormous assets to the state, who then "invest" these collective trillions that swell in these accounts. Concurrently, taxpayers are informed of budget deficits to either squeeze more taxes from them and/or cut public services. To add insult to injury, the state lies in omission by never reminding Americans of their hard-earned and withheld trillions as they eliminate jobs, reduce education, and attack the quality of our lives.

Gerald Klatt and Walter Burien are unrecognized heroes. These individuals are national leaders who have communicated how government agencies conceal American taxpayers' money in surplus accounts that collectively total trillions of our dollars. The data is found in government agencies' Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports (CAFRs).

The Baucus Bill has now been kicked to the curb by almost everyone who's heard anything about it. And rightly so. I'm going to kick it a little more myself, and give some specifics for doing so. In general, the Baucus bill has nothing to offer anyone, other than the health insurance industry.

On Sept. 13, 2009, Bloomberg published an article about Joseph Stiglitz'a recent assessment of the economy, in which he maintains that the banking crisis is actually worse than it was in 2007. The "too-big-to-fail" situation has actually worsened.
Health Care Reform Part 12--Lies: Cost Shifting - 0 views

Health Insurance Companies continue to perpetuate the fairy tale about "cost-shfting"--the notion that the cost of uncompensated care for the uninsured is "shifted" onto the backs of insurance companies and their enrollees. This is an outright lie, and a whopper at that.

Health Care Reform, Part 11--Costs: "Affordability Credits" - 0 views
-
HR 3200's costs are due almost entirely to the Affordability Credits. The language pertaining to these credits is confusing and difficult to follow--possibly by design. Unlike IRS or tax credits which are defined and have limits, these Affordability Credits, which are subsidies to Insurance Companies, have NO limits.
Bad Employment Report Even Worse Than It Appears - 0 views

Despite the Corporate media's overly optimistic and distorted reporting of today's employment report, the news was not good at all. The economy continues to lose jobs at a rapid rate. And without the multiple statistical manipulations used to concoct today's report, job losses in August would have been almost -300,000 or more.

"We have a 200-plus-page text riddled with square brackets," Yvo de Boer said at the opening of the Bonn UN Framework Convention on Climate Change informal negotiating session happening now. "And it worries me to think how on earth we're going to whittle that down to meaningful language with just five weeks of negotiating time left." According to Marianne Bom, the head of the UN's Climate Secretariat was referring to 2,000 square brackets indicating unresolved issues.
Ahmadinejad can't hide Lyin' Eyes - but does it really matter? - 0 views

Although incumbent President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad may have benefitted from corruption in his supposed electoral rout of Mir-Hossein Mousavi, there is no guarantee that Mousavi would have won, a concept that has not taken root. And even if Mousavi did win, who cares? Reason being, it wouldn't make much difference to the United States.

The price of appeasement. Remember Hitler? - 0 views

If we learned anything from World War II, it was that appeasing a madman is merely an opportunity for the madman to accomplish his goals. France and Britain did their level best to give Hitler what he wanted in order to avoid war. The result: Hitler ignored the treaties and the protests and did what he wanted...

President Obama is off on his trip to the Far East, ready to come home to deal with the many items piling up on his plate: healthcare, the economy, Thanksgiving, Democrat fundraising, the environment, early Christmas shopping, you name it. Busy, busy schedule. Somewhere in all of that he will fit in his ninth meeting with his war council on the troop decision in Afghanistan. To date he has spent a good 20-30 hours with them. That 20-30 hours has been spread over many months (close to 11 in office to date), leading one to believe that this decision is not his number one priority...
