In case you have not heard yet, The Obama Administration just announced that there will be no cost of living increase for Social Security recipients for the first time since 1975.
Also announced – Medicare premiums are going to increase substantially.
The net effect, if you are on Medicare or Social Security is that you get a [...]
Universal health care is the ultimate proof that the baby boomers were wrong. We created a throw-away society, an economy to match, and now we’re angry when it’s us that will be thrown away. “Take care of number 1” is scary when you’re not number one.
How can our government put forth a national [...]
I received this note from a CARTI employee and forwarded it to Senators Lincoln and Pryor and Representative Snyder a week ago. As usual there was no reply except “I’m so dedicated to my constituents, blah, blah, blah”. The subject is health care, the content is easily checked, and the reply is always “I don’t [...]
Listen carefully to what the Administration says about its healthcare reform plans.
At this week’s Portsmouth, NH Town Hall, Obama said, “I have not said that I was a single-payer supporter because, frankly, we historically have had a employer-based system in this country with private insurers, and for us to transition to a system like that [...]

Funny that our Arkansas Democratic Senator, Mark Pryor, has not scheduled any in-person Town Hall meetings during this summer’s recess. ‘Seems he can’t handle the heat in the kitchen that he brought upon himself by ignoring half the electorate in Arkansas (the half who didn’t vote for him). Let’s see, hmnn, if he schedules “phone-in” [...]
Okay, so it isn’t a song title, and it’s not a movie title, but it is a paraphrase from Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Remember the bandits were posing as Federales and Bogart asked them to show him their badges. “Badges? We don’t need no stinkin’ badges” is the line everyone remembers.
When Barack [...]
“As plain as the nose on your face”. That term has always meant something that is so obvious that there is no explanation needed.
So what’s as plain as the nose on your face?
