I really see no down side to Universial Health Care. Look at Germany. Everyone pays a % of their paycheck. You make more, you pay more. A flat % of your pay goes to Health Care. You need a doctor/dentist. Go see them. No cost out-of pocket. You need to check-in at the hospital, scehudle the date. America has inflated the Health Care System. Americans pay for the reseach/development/legal fees and other countries do not. As is, some Americans can not afford to get the treatment/medications that are needed. This is ok with people with expensive health care plans, or people with $$$$. This will NEVER change as long as we have special interest buying politicans & votes. Doctors/Hospitals/phar. companies are making record profits every year. Ever wonder why we pay so much? Because the system is OUT-OF-CONTROL. GREED - The American way, the American Dream.

I understand that our President Obama has NOT been an effective leader. I do not think this will be debated. HOWEVER, I believe that he has attempted to do positive things for the USA. His BIG MISTAKE was in ******* off big business. Forcing a HEALTH CARE BILL which has and will cost billions of dollars to be spent really upset corporate America. I see nothing worry with ensuring that children/people with a pre-existing medical conditions, and ensuring they can be treatment, which are far too expensive. As a result of this bill: Corporate America has withheld Trillions of dollars in foreign banks collecting interest until he is voted out-of-office. They have paid the entire Republican Party to vote down or bog-down any useful legislation. This resulting boycott by corporations/and their paid-for politicians has stopped American progress and fueled unemployment. This has crippled the economy, the middle class, and inflicts a death blow to the poor. Of course, this has not effect of folks with money. Money has, and always will – make more money. If Americans ever got a clue - they would vote each and every congressman out of office. This would send a message that the American people still hold the power. They would, of course, be replaced by different dirty politicians but the new ones MIGHT attempt to balance out the interest of the country with the interest of their pocket. We the people have always held power but the average American does nothing, says nothing, until the situation is an emergency. Thus, the politicians cater to whoever pays them - Special Interest Groups. Obama is the president - the buck stops here. So blame him for EVERYTHING. That is the American way - point the finger and blame the guy in charge. I understand the system and I do believe that even if his intentions are good, he can not be an effective leader if he receives no support. Just do not direct all the blame without understanding that corporate greed, special interest & dirty politicians are the reason why America is slowly going down the toilet. Have a great day.

Maybe I am old fashioned but what about the $$$$ in the mattress trick? Nothing like feeling that $$$$ under you as you dream about how to spend it. LOL

I was a contractor in Iraq for years. Served 20 years in the Army. They have had this ban on taking Dinar out of the country BUT somehow it is done. Tape them to your body & walk out. Mail them home in birthday cards (a few bills in each letter) or simply buy them for any money exchange in Kuwait.

If they sell the dollars that are in circulation & they buy back Dinar - this takes more Dinar out of the system! This is a positive for an RV. Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I will agree with MOST of what you guys say HOWEVER Corporations continue to post RECORD profits EVERY year, and their efforts to post those same RECORD profits, during a bad economy does effect the middle-class/lower class. At some point there has to be CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY. They can not continuously rake in the profits and blame everything on the government.

The economy suckers because the rich cats want Obama out-of-office. Obama forced America to provide health care for everyone. This caused Corporate America to foot the bill. This is why we now have a Congress full of Republicans whose sole purpose is to stop any common sense changes that cost the fat cats. Corporations are sitting on Trillions of dollars, screwing the economy/middle class until they can vote Obama out-of-office. I am not big fan of Obama. Did not even vote for him - BUT - even I can see what is happening. If America had ½ a brain they would vote EVERY congressman out. Of course, they would be replaced by more dishonest Politian’s but the replacements would KNOW that the welfare of America has to come before the special interest. Increase the taxes on the rich? Who do you think are sitting in Congress now? Each and every Congressmember is a millionare! LOL The same Congressmembers who vote themselves 2-3 pay raises per year? The same Congressmembers who do 2 terms and receive a tirement pay check for life? Yeah thats going to happen! Ha ha ha ha

The falling price of oil is a direct result of the screwed up economy. As soon as the sun comes out again, and we can afford to pay more - the price of oil will rise again!

I worked for KBR in 2005 & was not an invester. Then I saw the connexs being guarded & transported by the military. Word from one of the guards was that they contained DINAR. I decided maybe I should invest in a couple million.

I have been a READER of this site for many months. Something I do NOT understand. If you do not believe the RV will happen, you have not invested your $$$$$$$. Why do you waste your time coming to this site just to rain on our parade? I believe so I invested. My son does not so he did not. If you do not believe in this venture - get a life!
