Yes, the public option is a Trojan Horse, but it will do the trick!

By Maria B. - Jul 23rd, 2009 at 12:42 pm EDT

Also listed in: Middletown CT for Obama

I sometimes wish that public radio would not give air-time to the conservatives whose comments border on stupid. Today a Texas doctor emotionally argued that people should have health savings accounts. I suppose he should be allowed to make a fool of himself, but what a waste of time -- we need to moving the debate forward.

Most thinking Americans know that a single-payer system is the only good answer. However, I think it's pretty clear that our country cannot handle that right now, for many reasons, not the least of which is the large segment of the economy that would be decimated by the elimination of the medical insurance companies. Yes, a public option is a Trojan Horse. President Obama has almost said as much when he challenges the insurers to compete with a government system.

But we must try a system where the insurers continue to play, and remember that it is only a first step. It won't be long before people vote with their pocket-books, and cut the insurance system down to size. My prediction is that they will eventually be regulated like a public utility. (They are already the contracted administrators of Medicare.)

We need to acknowledge that our current "health care system" does not deliver health care to Americans, it delivers profits to corporate investors. Insurers have stolen our nurses to sit at computers to evaluate hospital length-of-stays. They have frustrated our physicians in numerous ways: removing their decision-making ability; limiting the time they can spend with patients; reducing their income by administrative costs.

I have long said that "if every person who wears a suit took care of one person we would not have a problem." The only people working in our health care system should be care-givers.

In a successful society health care is a right, not a privilege. Americans are smart people; we already understand that profit-making on people's illness is morally wrong.

Let's put profit-making where it belongs -- making "things" that improve lives. If health care is provided to all people we will have a work-force that's truly capable of meeting the real challenges we face, and an economy of substance, not smoke and mirrors.

Sincerely,
Maria Buatti, MPH.

the ongoing debate

"Health care system" in this country is an oxymoron. We must begin to call it what it is: a "medical-insurance syndicate." Too harsh? Try listening to the millions of horror stories about death and financial ruin. We have to directly confront the AMA and Congress with the truth, and force them to stop using euphemisms. It's a profit making syndicate built on the suffering of people without (and with) medical insurance. For years, American auto manufacturers were able to delay including seat-belts with a simple tactic: "whoever owns the name, owns the game." They used "accidents" in their lobbying; implying inevitability. It worked for years. We must change the name of this issue.

Americanism Economics Advisory for Jan. 5, 2009

By Candidate William Landers - Jan 5th, 2009 at 5:58 pm EST

Also listed in: 9 groups

The immediate measures that need to be taken for the short term economic stability are;

Small business grants from $ 250,000 up to $ 10,000,000 for any sole proprietorships that manufacture their goods with-in the borders of the United States and must be United States citizens.
Enforce monopolization laws and break up any company that used taxpayer funds to purchase or consolidate with bailout monies. Have the Attorney General arrest company executives and major stock holders who violated monopolization laws (Sherman Act). "Wells Fargo and Bank of America violated this act".
Have the Attorney General sue to recover from personal assets of failed companies any personal assets of major stock holders and corporate executives for amounts tax payers have had to pay into failed companies, this would include the over 17 trillion dollars held tax free off shore and the countless amounts of monies in other banks and real assets across the world. Any houses or bank accounts should be surrendered back to the tax payers and those causing this undue stress upon the United States citizens for their lack of personal responsibility should contribute with personal responsibility.
Increase taxes on any companies that have their goods manufactured outside the United States.
Remove any taxes from companies that manufacture their goods in the United States and pay a fair wage with health care.
Increase capital gains tax on corporations and hedge funds and remove all capital gains tax on sole proprietorships and personal assets bellow one million.
Remove regulations regarding co-opt farming in communities.
Get anyone off Social Security that is bellow the age of 65.
Require that federal troops patrol all borders and ports.
Have all ports taken back over by United States citizens business owned only.

This would be a good start towards United States recovery. The New Deal wasn't what pulled United States out of the Depression it was the creation of many small business and United States producing products. Yours in Arms Americanism Economics William Landers

William Landers advisement to Congress December 9, 2008

By Candidate William Landers - Dec 10th, 2008 at 10:15 am EST

Also listed in: 9 groups

William Landers' Americanism Economics advisement to congress, December 9, 2008
Honorable Members of Congress,
The big three auto manufactures (Ford, GM, and Chrysler) have come to congress asking for monies from the United States citizens to help them out of hard times.
Their failing business structure and excessive spending has lead them to a collapses with-in their market. They are now asking for monies to be leant to them from the United States citizens. If they fail, "which is highly probable", they will be back for more or will still collapse. The funds given will most likely be wasted and a failure still will occur.
There is no guarantee that the auto makers will keep United States citizens employed. The likelihood of massive layoffs will still occur and manufacturing moved to either Mexico or Canada. The move to produce in another nation, would then be paid for by the loans congress is proposing.
I respectfully would like to introduce a better plan.
The plan would not lend monies directly to the three auto makers, but rather loan monies directly to consumers for purchase of the three auto makers vehicles.
The Americanism Economics Auto Loan Program.
The Americanism Economics Auto Loan Program will provide guarantee purchases of a new vehicle by qualified borrowers.
The program will assists purchase of new vehicles that should get at least thirty miles to the gallon.
The new cars produced have to be made at least ninety percent with-in the borders of the United States of America.
The monies lent directly to the consumer through the auto markers loan department.
To qualify for a new car or truck purchase, the consumers have to be a United States Citizen.
There will be a fixed interest rate of one percent to the consumer.
In theory, this will boost auto production of fuel savings vehicles, while guarantying United States citizens jobs and future jobs. This shall prevent auto manufactures from moving operations into other countries at the expense of the United States taxpayer.
The protections found in this proposal, will be found deeply rooted in the Constitution of the United States of America.
One such protectionist was Abraham Lincoln.
In closing, please let me further state that it is unconstitutional to create monopolies. I would suggest highly you do not allow the three auto manufactures to form into one corporation.
The creation of monopolies are like your electric company or cable company. Once they have control they can do as they like and inflation is always a direct result.
Sincerely
Americanism Economics
Businessman William Landers

P.S. Please contact your congressman with this proposal.

William Landers’ Americanism Economics

By William Landers • December 8, 2008

1 voteBuzz up!

When thinking about economics we rarely think of it as the American People and their overall health and well being. Those with the fancy degree’s that came from school’s like Harvard or Yale often over look the American People equation in their economic models. They see ways to get the money from them, but rarely look to the ways to enrich the average American Citizen lives.

William Landers Americanism Economics, is the study of businessman William Landers philosophy of enriching the lives of the everyday American Citizen.

William Landers business philosophy comes from protections that were found in the Constitution of the United States and commonsense knowledge.

Here is the first rule of his philosophy;

What you are about to do in a business plan:

Will it hurt the average American or help them with their general well being?
Do you feel that it will add stress on the general worker?
Do you think that it is completely honest, or is their a hidden motive.
Are there hidden costs or is your business dealings completely open without small print?

These are some examples of what a true businessman should be. Anyone can mislead and take advantage of unknowledgeable people. But to protect Americans and give them open truthful business, is much more within our Constitutional formations.

Here are two administrative rules that will sling shot American small business growth again.

End all tax breaks, Federal and Local for any commercial or rental property that is not occupied for more then 3 months. This would include tax write offs to corporations for having empty manufacturing buildings. These buildings they now let rot and write off their federal and local taxes.
All retail businesses that do not solely deal with a product that can only be made in another country do to it’s mineral base and can only be found in that country, have to have at least 75 percent of their products for resale made with-in the borders of America.

If you implied these two rules alone, manufacturing with-in America would explode almost over night.

I will be writing a detail book on, William Landers Americanism Economics.

I would suggest that Americans buy it and read about how America could excel.

With Love of God and Country,

William Landers

McCain's Private Visit With Chilean Dictator Pinochet

McCain's Private Visit With Chilean Dictator Pinochet Revealed For First Time

John McCain, who has harshly criticized the idea of sitting down with dictators without pre-conditions, appears to have done just that. In 1985, McCain traveled to Chile for a friendly meeting with Chile's military ruler, General Augusto Pinochet, one of the world's most notorious violators of human rights credited with killing more than 3,000 civilians and jailing tens of thousands of others....

How to select the best candidate?

By Tim - Oct 24th, 2008 at 10:27 pm EDT

Also listed in: 9 groups

How to select the best candidate?

Have you looked at the candidates resumes carefully?

In any profession, when they are looking into hiring someone, first they look at each candidate's resume, and there, first thing they look at is his/her education, to make sure he/she has the required degree with enough & related training from a credible univ./collage and with a high standing. If that's not the case, they don't waist their time any more - just through the resume out, and move to the next one. If the candidate passes that, then they look at his/her related experience. If that one is also good then probably interview him/her to know more about his/her character & personal values and physical fitness for the job, and also how much his/her vision/goals aligns with the company's vision/goals.

For more than 20 years, every time that I've applied for a new job, I went through the same cycle of resume writing & interview process. Every time that I hired someone - from ordinary things, like car oil change to a family doctor for check up, to a repair person for the house, to hire someone for the company, I've performed the same steps.

Education without experience is lame, and experience without education is blind.

Probably, government positions are the only ones that may skip that process, and put someone with no, or little, or unrelated education and/or experience in the office. Ironically, higher the public responsibility, more people ignore following the above process in hiring a qualified person for the office. Positions like member of municipality, mayor of city/town, governor of state, state representative or senator of congress, or president of the country - in fact any position that you can vote for.

In any election, we should look at it as if we are hiring someone for the office with the fix salary & all the benefits that come with it (and of course, the high responsibility), and try to evaluate each candidate's resume with the same process as mentioned above, i.e.:

1- Education
2- Experience
3- Character/Personal values & Physical fitness
4- Vision/goals

Let me break them more:

-Education:
.high degree
.degree be related to the job
.from top university/collage
.good grade

-Experience:
.number of years in related field
.successful achievements & progress
.references/colleagues feedback

-Character/Personal values & Physical fitness:
.honesty, trustworthy, loyalty, integrity, leadership, good judgment, teamwork, good problem solving & decision making, good negotiating, understanding, care about people & environment, civilize/humane/moral values, intelligent, mature, good attitude
.physically fit, healthy, high energy, passion

-Vision/goals in related areas according to the job, like:
.economy
.peace/war
.security
.education
.health
.energy
.environment
.Tax
.family
.crime
.employment
.civil rights
.foreign affairs & human rights
.etc

For example for this coming presidential election we can try to define above parameters:

1- What education a president should have?

I think a president should have at least a bachelor's degree in one of the following areas:

Law
Economics
Political Science
Sociology or Social Work
International/Foreign affair

And enough courses/training in all the above areas as well as the following areas:

Public Policy (local or global)
Management & Leadership
Planning (for cities, environments, social & economic well-being)

I think a president needs to have academic training in all those areas that when he/she discusses issues in each area with a team of experts to find the best possible solution, be able to understand them and analyze their recommendations to be able to make the best decision (e.g., sitting with a team of economists with high degree & experience on economy issues).

2- In terms of experience, a president should have good public service experience like US senator, US representative, governor, mayor, state official, state senator, state representative, civil rights attorney, community work, etc. But let's be careful about this. As I mentioned above, experience without knowledge is blind and has little value because he/she has never had fundamental theory to fully comprehend and build those experiences on top of knowledge.

3- Character/Personal values as mentioned above are essential for a president to have, especially leadership, good judgment, good temper, and being able to work with people with different opinions. And being physically fit, healthy, and with high energy for such a stressful job is also very important. A president with little of these values can (for example) lead the country to an unnecessary war and risk the lives of millions of people, leave so many disables, and destroy so many families.

4- How much the vision & goals of the presidential candidate & VP, in areas that you think are very important, is compatible with yours? We should list those areas (similar to ones I listed above) and evaluate each candidate for each area. And when you do that, you shouldn't think about the things that are important ONLY for YOU and/or have immediate benefit for you but also for the people in your neighborhood/town/city, for your state, for your country, and also for the world. We should realize that we are responsible to all people of our country and the whole world who we elect and put in the office. A president can push the green button and lead the country toward peace & prosperity or push the red button toward world nuclear war & destruction of earth. Don't forget, in the face of history, people like Hitler didn't fall to office from sky; some people voted for & elected them.

We should carefully study each candidate and grade them for each & all of the parameters mentioned above to elect someone wisely & responsibly.

For example, for the first element, i.e., the candidate's education, I did some research and found the following info for this presidential election:

Obama:
.Columbia University - B.A. Political Science with a specialization in
International Relations
.Harvard - Juris Doctor (J.D.) Magna Cum Laude, first black president of the "Harvard Law Review"

Biden:
.University of Delaware - B.A. in History and B.A. in Political Science.
.Syracuse University College of Law - Juris Doctor (J.D.)

McCain:
.United States Naval Academy (2.5 yrs training as a naval aviator); class rank: 894 of 899; he had conflict with higher-ranking personnel; he did not always obey the rules; struggled with mathematics

Palin:
Hawaii Pacific University - 1 semester
North Idaho College - 2 semesters - general study
University of Idaho - 2 semesters - journalism
Matanuska-Susitna College - 1 semester
University of Idaho - 3 semesters - B.A. in Journalism

For the rest of qualifying parameters, I suggest you do your own research. We should keep in mind that presidency is a serious job. Lives of millions are at stake. So, we want to hire some people who satisfy the education & training requirements for it, as well as experience, integrity, vision, etc.

While we should study & select our candidate carefully, at the same time, someone who doesn't have enough qualification for the job shouldn't apply for it - shouldn't candidate for it. Like any profession, if someone likes to have a specific position in public service, or become a politician (for example, become a mayor, governor, member of congress, VP, president, etc.), he/she should study in that field & work for it. It’s very ridiculous that some people with no or little qualification become candidate for these types of jobs. And what is more disappointing is WE contribute, support, vote for & elect these people for the office.

Vote wisely & responsibly.

OBAMA SIGNS

By Lee - Oct 17th, 2008 at 10:56 am EDT

Also listed in: 9 groups

I have yet to get any response about getting yard signs for Obama-Biden.

I have though seen a lot of feedback from area's all over Connecticut and other area's where McCain-Palin signs are saturated all over at intersections, main roads, high traffic area's. I really am not sure and it seems others with me are scratching their heads as to what the deal is here. You must see it in your travels. The opponents signs are EVERYWHERE and finding a Obama-Biden sign is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Is it just taken for granted that Obama does not need signs put out? What is the deal?

I have seen that, along with myself, there are others that will spend their time, gas and effort to put out signs. But, we can't seem to find any.

Anyone that reads this, can you please help me to start passing around the word and emails, to HQ and locally, that we NEED SIGNS.

One last thing, I have just come across a excellent website called, WWW.FOXATTACKS.COM, TAKE A LOOK.

IF ANYONE has any solutions, please contact me directly at 203-695-5470 or leewilcox7@aol.com. Maybe, lets start a petition stating that WE NEED SIGNS IMMEDIATELY and send it to Obama HQ. ANY OTHER IDEA'S ARE WELCOMED??

Throughout the area I reside in, everywhere I go, I see McCain - Palin signs. It is a great way to lose weight as whenever I see a sign of theirs I lose my appetite.

But really, does anyone in the area have signs for Obama - Biden. In travels just today, I counted and saw about 25 McCain signs and saw 2 Obama signs. This is in a heavily populated area in Connecticut. RTE. 25 - Monroe/ Newtown, Rte. 111 - Monroe - Shelton.

If anyone has signs I will spend hours and anyone who wants to join me to go put up them and stake claim to Connecticut and this area.

Anyone willing to help and does anyone have signs????

Corporate Security: A Bailout Plan

By Bosco - Sep 30th, 2008 at 6:21 pm EDT

Also listed in: 8 groups

I'm not the kind of person that believes that throwing money at something will solve everything, and at $700,000,000,000, that's a lot to throw around. I think we need to take a step back and look at how and why we got here, and try to assure that it doesn't happen again. We can't just look at the companies that are in trouble, but also the victims of their practices, who, by the way, happen to be the same people who are being asked to bail them out.

I propose we should do the following:

1) Repeal both the "Commodity Futures Modernization Act" and the "Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act".
2) Regulate all interest rates.
3) Bring all existing mortgages and loans in line with new regulations.
4) Create new "Corporate Security" program.
4a) Companies pay taxes to fund program.
4b) If company needs a "bailout loan" they apply for it.
4c) Bailout application gets reviewed by review board.
4d) Upon approval of "bailout loan" the CEO and all executive management are dismissed without packages.

Now obviously this "Corporate Security" program will cost money to get started, and that is where our tax money should go, not into a one time bailout deal (which we have already done several times recently and have no guarantees that it won't happen again), it's a lot like giving a man a fish, or teaching him to fish. If a company deals in any way with publicly held stock they would be required to contribute to the fund, just like when an individual works they contribute to Social Security.

If you are unfamiliar with the above listed Acts the "Commodity Futures Modernization Act" is basically what allowed Enron to dig it's hole, and the "Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act", was what repealed the "Glass-Steagall Act" which prohibited a bank from offering investment, commercial banking, and insurance services, and a major reason we are in the mess we are in now.
