I know many seem to be concerned about our debt and how China holds a lot of the debt but I was listening to a good conversation this morning on one of them economic webcasts, this one was about the EU and Greece. The problem seems that if Greece falls, then the EU may falter and if they...

Yesterday, I was amazed at the length that the news outlets have gone through to remove the work sh*tty. I listened or tried to listen to the trial of the Goldman-Sachs execs by the congress, more specifically tried to listen to Levin repeat the words allegedly used by the execs in a memo...

Happy Tax Day FairTax

A very good read ... AN OPEN LETTER FROM THE BOOMERS TO THEIR CHILDREN

Maybe it is the knee jerk reaction but one of the things that will happen within a year that I am seeing in different reports is the limiting of Medicare payments to providers which means less access to health care providers because they can't operate at a loss.

Obama, our great leader and messiah, has made the comment in Ohio while campaigning; "your employer it's estimated would see premiums fall by as much as 3,000 percent, which means they could give you a raise." OK I guess the employer is going to give on h*ll of a raise. A friend pays $3500...

The first person who has been charged with treason in 50 years may be coming home to face the charges. I only hope our great president doesn't pardon him or interfere with the court case and the guy is executed by hanging. Pakistan captures American-born al-Qaida POS

Makes you wonder what's wrong with people - when in Rome ... From the AP;

So last week, the WSJ reported that Obama's chief of staff called other democrats "f***** retarded" for their plan on trashing the conservative democrats who are against the health care take over. So Palin decided that this was offensive for some reason and jumped on obama to fire him, which...

OK in the past week or so we have heard all this 'stuff' about Toyota. GM, Ford and Chrysler seem to be desperate along with the US media to trash Toyota. The doom and gloom that Toyota is having, many seem to think this is a BIG downfall for them, but unlike the massive recalls Ford Chrysler...

Is it me or did I just miss the point entirely. The Haitian people are going to rebuild the parts of their country that were destroyed, the estimated cost will be $3B over a 10 year period - most of the funds seem to be committed from countries who are willing to help. This includes new...

Chrysler's lawyers have convinced a judge in NY to move ahead with their liquidation plan. This was that 438 plan where they sell off things like equipment and property (they sold some land here in Detroit for $2000 and then the state is trying to make sure the new old Chrysler clean it up)...

No one seemed to notice or care Air America is no more - officially. Must be something about it somewhere? Yep there it is, Time has a clip about it. Amazing that they had to subsidize the network while others stand on their own - makes you wonder.

I'm reading the little news bit; Feds: Michigan will qualify for high-speed rail money And it is ironic that this has come up at the "North American International Auto Show" of all places. This is a twisted region, we don't have real use of our public transportation system because of the...

So there is an "attack" on a plane. The attack failed and the people on the plane reacted. We didn't have an Air Marshal on board to help. The Airlines staff wasn't the one who stopped it. But it was a passenger. So our great leader was on vacation in the lala land of Hawaii - his fifth...

Here is a good video everyone is making a big stink about here. Some Mom's (freep) are saying it is unfair and bashes Detroit and this morning on the radio I heard "it is racist". It has some nice scenery in it, you may see some of the better places where there is shows the horrors of war but...

I read the celebration article on health care and something really sounded odd; The CBO claims that passage of health care reform will save $100 billion over the next ten years at the same time cost a trillion dollars for the same time period. If someone believes that health care reform is a...

I don't know how many of you caught Obama's speech last night but the content wasn't important enough as I expected it to be. But I got the feeling I was watching one of two people depending on where they put the camera - Hitler or Caesar. The entire "I am going to address the nation to save...

Just wanted to drop a thread, Henderson resigned today as CEO of GM. The rumor has been floating around for a few days that they would force a move at the top (they being the car czar) and look for another non-car guy to replace him in trying to duplicate "Ford-Mulally success". The joke of it...

let me preface this; The middle class has no real definition, it depends on the context of the statement that defines what the middle class is for us common folk. With that said, I was listening the other day to a professor over at the U talk about how auto union brought on the demise of the...
