No One Cares

Our government is broke .... the political parties that control government cannot agree on anything regarding immigrants in this country, illegally.

The current President's position is as follows:

  • Wants funding for a wall on the southern border of the U.S.
  • Wants to end the visa lottery program.
  • Wants to curb visas issued to families of legal immigrants.
  • The President really doesn't want to extend Dreamers and may have the power to suspend it on MAR 5 2018. (The President's possible ace in the hole)
All of which (as they say) is to address security/terrorism concerns on behalf of the United States.

The opposing party wants an extension (or permanent implementation) of the program entitled "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA - Dreamers)". Plus they too are concerned about security. Nevertheless, they do NOT want to give in on the points above.

The President will give the opposing party what they want if the President gets what he wants.

As you know, by now ... neither side is willing to give in.

Guess who is in the  middle??? Men, women and children make up the in-between.

The political war raging is being fought on the backs of ....

Real, flesh and blood people.

As far as I am concerned, both parties are frauds.

Hospitals, Hospitals & MORE Hospitals

Finished reading an article regarding a new medical research center being built by “Children’s Mercy Hospital” in Kansas City, MO. It’s going to be a beautiful building & one of architectural significance from the looks of it. I dare say that it most likely will be pretty expensive to build . Having not too long ago moved back to Kansas City from Houston … there, they are building new architecturally significant hospitals right & left … there appears to be no end in sight as to the building spree. I am not sure there is any more room left in the Houston Medical Center District. Some of my reading has implied that these facilities are of a high tech nature with all the bells & whistles necessary to deliver state of the art medical care to a generation of folks who are demanding such services. I can’t help but believe that all of this will ultimately be reflected in higher health care costs to us the end user. Our insurance rates in reality go up significantly e...

I'm On Medicaid and you want ME to do What??? Are You Kidding???

Class warfare is brewing regarding the Medicaid program. Our current President has now given the states the power to force recipients to work for this health benefit. In case you do not know this, Medicaid is the largest funding source for medical and health related services on behalf of low-income citizens in the United States. It is a jointly managed and funded "means-tested" program involving the federal government and states. As a lower middle-class worker , you are acutely aware of just how EXPENSIVE health care related insurance has become. Not only is it exorbitantly expensive for the individual employee of any company .... it is insultingly out of reach for an employee's family. It doesn't take a giant leap in logic to understand why it is a program we NEED as a country to help the low income sector. I think we still believe as a county that it is in our nation's best interests to care for those who need help with health services. Don't we???...

Marijuana

It's time to officially (on all levels) legalize marijuana. One of the reasons, it's time is that quite a few States NOW have it legalized in one form or another. Thus making it apparent that the people of the United States are ready for this to take place. An example of how marijuana legalization is sweeping the country, just take a look at recent actions taken by Kansas City, MO (my home town). An ordinance was passed that drastically reduces the fine for possession of a low amount of marijuana. The fine was reduced from $500 to $25, plus there is a relaxation of enforcement to this effect. Kansas City is pretty conservative and part of the Bible Belt thus making an action like this pretty significant. An odd conflict is brewing between the Feds and the States.  It is getting more serious with each passing day. Up to this point, the Feds are still saying it's illegal while the States are rushing to liberalize marijuana policy. It's a train wreck soon to occur. W...
