The Day After Tommorrow
Finally, the time is getting close for me to put some of my own money back into my own pocket ! The time of year when our taxes stop paying for all the welfare and illegals ! But don't fret, help is on the way. Obama has promissed that he will help those of us not making $150K or less by putting in better and more favorable programs. This should be graet, now i can plan on working 9 months before i realize anything going into my home. Maybe i should quit and jump on his bandwagon ! Imagine, not having to go to work everyday and sitting on your fat ass and getting everything free (rent, food, medical, schools, university). Do you get the feeling that there is something wrong here ? Think about it till the nex time !

Memorial Day
Here we are, the unofficial start of summer. $4.00/gallon of gas and what's next? During this weekend, why don't you take five (5) minutes to reflect where you freedom comes from. Look at those before us who unselfishly gave their lives to get us what we have today! Say a prayer, think about where our country is heading and those who are in the forefront to be elected, to lead us. Your choice will direct the direction we take, not only for you but for your future family. Ask yourself if the individual we elect will continue to get us back to where we need to be , in respect to family, religion, freedom of choice and respect from those we have always supported, without even asking for a thank you. Take the time! it's your future!

"WE THE PEOPLE"
When our country was founded, our forefathers looked to establish a country in which our democracy would be held up by the Constitution and Bill of Rights. "In God WeTrust", ment something! Where have we gone wrong? Our Politicians cater to the heayy lobby that exist and spreads it's almighty dollars into their pockets. Decisions are made by the politicians for the lobby's and not the people. Political parties have kept welfare in the forefront, in order to maintain their electorate. Third and fourth generation welfare recepients, reap from those of us who break their asses working every day, to pay their way. Now the politicians want to let in 20 to 30 million more, illegal immigrants for us to support. The average calculation of what it cost us to support one illegal, here in this country was $21,000.00/ illegal, based on figures put out six months ago. Does that include medical coverages (free)? How much are you paying for medical, if you can afford it. Why don't you go to the hospital for free treatment and see what you get! The door! Our politicians are going to once again (after the election), attempt to let them all in free! What about the thousands of immigrants who are trying to come into our country legally? They pay thousands of dollars to get medical checks, etc., in order to meet the stringent requirements set forth in legally arriving in our country. Where do they go? To get a feel of what is happening with the illegale, just look at the crime increases in the areas where illegals move. Look at our prisions, look at the strange increases in diseases that were once considered beaten here! This all comes from illegal immigrants! No checks or balances. Senior citizens and those looking to retire on Social Security, take note, your pockets are being picked by those illegals who are given, minimum Social Security benefits, even though they never contributed!!! What are your kids going to do, let alone you? Twenty (20) or thirty (30) million more won't affect it?
Where do the Unions stand on this? For many years they have been catering to the Democrats, but what has it gotten them? Illegal immigrants who arrive here and do their jobs for little or nothing! This is how the Democrats have helped your Unions! You don't have to be a brain surgeon to see it! At one time< Unions were starting to once again thrive, but today they are in decline. I was once a proud Union employee, but after the immigration law was changed in the mid 60's & 70's they started to decline. Why, we ask? Just look at when the illegals started to arrive and figure it out for yourself. I have nothing bad to say about legal immegrants, both my parents, themselves or their father/mothers came to this country looking for a better life. They found it, but worked their asses off, 16-18 hours/day to bring up their family! They learned to speak ENGLISH and didn' have a second language interperter in every corner (paid for by the gov't) to help them out. Sure we have ethenic sections in every major city where their native tongue is spoken, but when they come out they speak ENGLISH. Maybe we should consider printing in every language, in order to not be prejudice against anyone! Maybe we should just speak ENGLISH as we are supposed to here in the US! Should they want to continue to speak only their native tongue, then i suggest they return to their native country. That's not bein prejudice, it's just bein realistic. Why should we continue to pay BILLIONS, every year to support their language, every other culture that has arrived here has done a dam good job of learning! Maybe it's just that we give them everything and don't ask for anything in return?
A quick post on the OIL situation! Lets get A country wide E-mail out to all our politicians! We should state the following: WE THE PEOPLE, demand that in light of the current OIL CHRISIS, expect that a new tarrif be established immediately and applied to all OPEC Countries. The TARRIF should be on all goods, services and reference the price of oil back 6 years ago when it was $30.00/barrel. The new tarrif based on this pricing should bring the price of goods and services for these countries up to the current percentage level of oil prices now being charged by OPEC.
As for the OIL COMPANIES here in the US & Canada, the same should be applied to their profits from that date!
Thats it for now!

Thinking
The past few weeks have been very busy and i have not had the chance to write down my thoughts! Looking over , what has transpired the past few weeks, i guess i will start here.
When we are young, we tend to go with the flow of the times, we follow those we think have the answers! Why should we be an individual thinker and not a follower? The reason is simple. Just look at those, five to ten years older. Are they the same as they were when they were your age? We live in a very demanding time, where people who we think are our friends (like the Saudi's and other friendly arab nations) really are not. Just look what has happened during the last five years in the area of oil pricing. When the war started, we were paying on average, $30.00-$35.00/barrel. Today the price is $115.00/barrel! Why so much? Trying to bring a democratic state into the Arab Countries is reaping havock with their leaders! Who will be hurt the most if Democracy prevails? The Shieks and all their dictatorships, that have been in power for a thousand years and refuse to let their people get educations, feel freedom, have a right to their own religion, etc.. The war has put pressure on them and they can see a possible effect on their continued control over the masses. How can they fight us without military attacks? The price of OIL! OUR FRIENDS? Countries we have gone overboard to help in the past and what do we get for it. Answer, "the big salami"!
Oil effects everything, from the cost of your food to the cost of your heat and gas for the car. What we need to do is initiate immediate tarrifs on everything we export to the oil producing countries. As oil pricing goes up, proportinate cost should be put on everything we export to them. Lets be fair to the prices we receive and the prices we charge. Why should they charge us these unrealistic prices. They want to force us out of their area of the world where people are used as slaves to their way of thinking and have no possible way of speaking for themselves. Our $4.00/gallon of gas is just around the corner! The rich get richer and the poor get poorer! They are forcing us to devaluate our dollar and destroy our way of life. But what about our own oil companies, here in the US & Canada?
Exon, made the highest profis made by any Corporation in the history of the world (2007). Why is this ? ALL of the oil and gas we receive comes from the US< Canada, Mexico or Venesuala! How come we pay the rate established by the OPEC Group? The simple answer is GREED! Our politicians cater to the oil and gas lobbies and we pay for it. American oil and gas companies, havn't built a new refinery here in the US, since the 50's. Any other major corporation that doesn't invest in the control and manufacture of their products would be bankrupt and out of business. Not the oil boys, they do nothing but complain that environmental issues, prevent them from building. Thats BS and they know it. The US and Canada have been building oil fields in Alaska, northern Canada and other major locations throughout our countries, for the past 30 years but what have we seen. We only hear about Arab oil! Why don't they talk about our oil? The answer is they don't want us to know what they really have! Everytime we have a blip, such as Hurricanes, Northeasters, etc. they tell us there is a shortage. Just like in the winter months when we need fuel oil, they cut back on supplies and tell us there are shortages and we have to pay more. Why do we have to pay more for natural gas? The product is strictly produced in the US or Canada an piped underground to your home or business. I guess the oil companies feel there is going to be an earthquake with the Hurricane! Natural Gas reserves are second to none, both here and in Canada. Some of the greatest finds in history lie just off Canada's and the US shores. Ask yourself, why arn't we using hydrogen or other fuels to propel the automotive industry? Certainly it would be cheaper and more fuel efficient than gas. The oil companies and their political friends don't want to put it thru. We have the same politicians in office, year after year. How much do they know about what it's like to work for almost 7 months without getting paid, just to support all the freeloaders and illegals here in this country and the last 5 months we try to pay our bills and survive! The family structure here is all but gone! We depend on both parents to work to try and provide for the family. Certainly, if we didn' have the freeloaders and illegals who take advantage of our great country's programs, we might be able to get back to one working parent. The illegals and others who come here, expect us to cater to their needs and feel we owe this to them! We have to work two jobs, have our wives work and still we can't make ends meet. Yet, we have to have Spanish teachers in our schools, publish everything in two languages (or more), provide free hospital care for them, when many of us can't afford the care and get refused when we try! I guess it would be the same for me if i went to a Spanish speaking country, they would give me everything for free and tell their people to go out and work extra, so they could provide me with these comforts. They would then provide me with aninterperter to assist me in my everyday life's needs and would not require me to learn or speak their language! "BS". The time has come to act,by thinking about who represents you and what they bring to the table, which supports your views and not theirs! Should we not do something during this election period, we may be to late! 20-30 million more illegals? Where does this take us? Thousands of legal immigrants trying to come into our country to help with their gifts of many diverse occupations. The same way as many of our parents or grandparents did. They worked hard, played hard, fought hard and gave us what we now have. Many of them, including our forefathers are rolling over in their graves, looking at where we are today. Sorry for all the rambling in this session, but i say it as it comes! Till next time

The College Students
Like in many other decades, we have massive political statements being made by our youth! The question remains, do they really understand what they are saying? Or are they just following the crowd! Where has the students from past decades gone and what have they learned. The answer is simple, they grew up and learned what the real world is all about! Not just the world the think exist. They find out after college that when you work, all your pay from January 1 thru July 1, is given to the Gov't for supporting their programs and the freeloaders, illegals and others that take advantage of what we give out free. The rich don't care, they have enough money where it doesn't affect them, the poor pay nothing and receive all the benifits, without having to work for it. The illegals, just feel, it's owed to them. We have illegals attending college in this country on funds from the Gov't, when even our own children cannot get in with us working and trying to pay. Who gave these programs to the freeloaders?
Thru the years the Democratic Party was in power and pushed thru these bills to help the average individual. But as time went on the party passed amendments to the original bills which included everyone, regardless of their status. Today, if you are from the middle class, you generally won't get the help your parents look for to attend college. The middle class pays for the programs, but has to fight like hell to try and get support. Again, the poor and the rich have no problems! With the influx of illegal immigrants into our country (est. 20-30 million), it cost the american public an average of $21,000.00 per year/ illegal to keep them here. Again who pays for it? You don't, while going to school! That figure doesn't take into consideration the cost of medical care we give them. Try sometime to get into a hospital, emergency room! They do not pay and get everything free. Ever think, why our cost of self health insurance is so high or why the hospitals are going broke? When we are kids we like to look at everything thru rose colored glasses! but as we mature the real world comes into play.
Tell me, who in Washington today, is looking out for you and your future children? Where will we be ten (10) years from now, it gets here faster than you think. During the past 20 years, the Democrats have proposed a new Health Plan for all citizens! What has been done to date, nothing! Even John Kerry had this plan as part of his last campaign, what has he done since the last election to get a bill introduced? Hillary, is also promising us a new plan, i wouldn't hold my breath.
All the fat cats now in office, need to be removed! Especially the ones that have been in for extended years! What do they do? Has there been any program introduced within the past ten (10) years that you can say is beneficary to you and your family? The Democrats introduced, welfare to help the poor, but what did it turn out to be. Nothing but a means, to keep people poor, get votes and keep them depressed. The recievers of the services, in many cases have been on programs for decades. Ask yourself, what am i entitled too? Once again, we pay for it we support them, they get everything for free, with no responsibility to work or provide. The theory, keep them there, comfortable, content and ask them for a vote when we need it! Should this round of Illegal Imigrants be allowed into the country fre of charge, haw much more will it cost you? They already get Social Security Benefits, But thats for another day.

The Average Guy
Today, being the first day of this new blog, i feel it is important to start with, thoughts of the day!
As i look around, what i see is the beginning of the end of a great country! A place where people tend to follow, not lead! The political future of where we are going to go is rapidly approaching and where we stop will determine the future.
We Americans have become passive and believe we know it all. We complain about what is going on, yet when the time comes to act (vote), we let the other guy do it for us. Thirty or forty percent votes are considered huge turnouts. Apathy is rampant in this country. We do not have the politicians working for the people they work for themselves, or do as they are told by other party members! The choice to stand alone and represent the people is diminishing fast. Where do we go from here? Looks like downhill!!
We need a voice to be heard and acted upon, we need "We The People" to get back on track and get out to vote before the machine takes over. Think about how much voice you now have with any of your elected officials. Do they represent you or do they represent themselves and their party?
Give it some thought, till the next time.
