Zorro None the less, I suspect neither of us are professional entertainers, as such our words might more be expected to be well thought, and not like the words of a pretending oaf like Bill Mahr who merely seeks to increase his TV ratings with provocative comments. Bill Mahr purposely speaks the words of a fool. It is for laughs. He makes his millions by doing so. For all we know, he is a closet conservative. He obviously is a successful capitalist. In any case, few take him seriously. At best his words die before the laughter fades. |

Tea anyone? billion a month in taxes. That means it must beg, borrow or steal about $140,000,000,000 each month (that's four commas per year by my reckoning). I hope it never comes to begging for it. Currently, they mostly borrow it, however I've heard some serious talk of stealing it by focusing more tax requirements on a small sector of our current tax payers, those who hire folks. What's up with that? My business couldn't possibly survive for long, spending 82% more than comes in. I recon, the US Government can't either. I say the Tea Party is on the right path. It is high time to spend within our means.". LAC |

jumped out of a building. What a tragedy.' What a d***! f*** him, he’s an idiot. If he thought he could fly, why didn’t he take off on the ground first? Check it out. You don’t see ducks lined up to catch elevators to fly south—they fly from the ground, ya moron, quit ruining it for everybody. He’s a moron, he’s dead—good, we lost a moron, f***in’ celebrate. Wow, I just felt the world get lighter. We lost a moron! I don’t mean to sound cold, or cruel, or vicious, but I am, so that’s the way it comes out. Professional help is being sought. How about a positive LSD story? Wouldn't that be news-worthy, just the once? To base your decision on information rather than scare tactics and superstition and lies? I think it would be news-worthy. 'Today, a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. That we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream and we're the imagination of ourselves' . . . 'Here's Tom with the weather.'" Bill Hicks 1961-1994 |

Wealthy people the economy by investing prudently. Thus creating jobs for those who desire to earn their own cash. Every rich person that I know follows a simple principle that all are free to follow: they diligently spend less than they earn. The beauty of this simple principle is that as the wealth grows, it becomes easier to continue to follow the principle." I recommend, to all who enviously want the wealthy to share what they have earned to instead earn some of their own. Most do not have the self discipline to follow this simple principle. Those who do, do. Quit complaining and get with the program. It works. W |

a pile of rubbish, a heap of non-biodegradable garbage, a mountain of infertile ashes Not the most effective way to invest wealth so as to yield new asset value, build national competitive advantage, support new growth industries, fuel entreprenurial growth, or to create jobs. In chess, it is the equivalent of only advancing blocked pawns to secure a closed fortress, instead of advancing passed pawns that are promotable into greater assets. And that pablum about spending less than you earn will not help the 50 million Americans who are supported by an income that means living paycheck to paycheck. |
