[caption id="" align="alignleft" width="207" caption="photo from tictocfamily.com"][/caption] This is just a little post to let everyone know more is coming. I'll be much more consistent after the finishing touches are done on this place. Until then, I will part with a few little tidbits that I or my hubby have seen and wondered about. The first question is just something I have wondered about. I have no real answer for it but it does beg [+]

I really like listening to the Carpenters and singing along with them. But right now, I feel for the carpenters as this economy makes it tough to listen to their hammers at work. Supposedly, it is all turning around. We are told that now is the time to pounce on the homes with the assistance of the Federal Government through their $7,000-$8,000 first time home buyers handout. I would strongly advise against it [+]

This is the best explanation the Economic Stimulus I have found that anyone should be able to easily understand.  Thanks Gordon for forwarding this information to us.I urge you to read... Shortly after class, an economics student approaches his economics professor and says, "I don't understand this stimulus bill. Can you explain it to me?" The professor replied, "I don't have any time to explain it at my office, but if you come over to my [+]

This is the short form of the Economic Stimulus that is being talked about extensively. So for those who are not a fan of long and boring details, here is the summarized version. The government went on a large spending spree promising retirement incomes and health care to the people for the sake of buying votes. (Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid) Then they proceeded to take all of the money from those programs as [+]

No matter what country you may live in, you have likely heard about how the new President and the Democrat controlled Congress was going to save the world and solve all of the world’s problems from the economic issues, environmental issues, and more. The media is bragging about the $ billion dollar “economic stimulus” that is supposedly needed immediately for the purposes of “saving jobs and saving America’s economy.” They talk non-stop about how [+]

Here is how some of it is being spent. $83 billion for the earned income credit for people who don't pay income tax (Take from those who work hard and give to the lazy.) $20 billion to increase food stamps, (Same thing.) $81.2 billion for Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments, (When the programs are almost bankrupt already, let’s take the nation down with them.) $11.2 billion for housing assistance programs administered by HUD, (Giving money to those who can’t [+]

All this and more adds up to $ billion (and growing) which is to be repaid by 2020. But wait, there is still more. The interest on the loan is about $345 billion for a grand total of $1.1 trillion for $100 billion used for job stimulus in 3+ years. All this is payable by the taxpayers, namely us and our children. It doesn’t stop there either. This “economic stimulus” [+]

This entry is unfortunately based on completely perplexing items being promoted and the sheer stupidity of them. It is my opinion but I think the US Federal government has gone off the deep end – nabuang na, nuts, crazy, or insane. There are 1.9 million farmers in the USA and 200,000 large commercial farms. The 1.9 million farmers that obviously make a tremendous amount of food are in danger of being put out [+]
