Wow, read the Peice don't think Conservitive has anything to do with it. In order to sell a car, you have to fallow Regulations, I'm sure the Free Fuel thing is a LIttle Confusing, with road use,tax laws, DMV and all.

The US stock market has averaged 9% for 80+ years.At that rate you Blindly double your Investments every 8 yrs. so,in MYRA $10,000 doulbles in 48 yrs. I'll be 96yrs old or dead.and have $20,000 in bonds that will be worth appox.$ $2,500 in todays dollars at Best. $10.000 in a Basic index Fund, or Mutual Fund at the average will double every 8 yrs. so in the same 48 yr period your $10,000 is Worth $2,560,000. $20,000 or $2,560,000 the choice is yours. But, what would we Expect for an Economic Moron of a President. YOU KNOW the community organgrinder,that said "YOU DIDN'T BUILD THIS" If you save the Way he wants you to, we will all be dependent,as it Should Be. RISK FREE Gov't Bond? Like I said, Buy all the Gov't Bonds You want it will only make you POORER for IT.

Just in, GE is investing 10 Billion into Oil /Gas Exploration and development. Technology being the key to "FRACKING"and our nations energy independence, and leading role as the Worlds energy Leader. GE is in development of CO2 injection for fracking instead of Water. Small LNG terminals so vehicals at the sight can use the LNG as a Fuel.Reducing Co2 emmittions by 30 % and reducing most other Nasties by 99.% The US is the Saudi Arabia of the Worlds Bridge Fuel US NAT GAS. Look at Japan, will they build another Fukashima? Burn Coal ? Depend on the stability of the Middle East,and Their Buy Oil. or Place their Bets on the stability of the US, and the clean, cheap, vast supplies of the US of A small side note: every where around the world Nat gas is an accepted "Bridge Fuel" and they pay more for its use. Japans price ? about $ 15.00 for a Million BTUs Europe about $10-12 per million btu. OUR price $ 4.00 M.BTU.

Steve, you can search "TRUTHLAND" a documentary, that counters "FRACKLAND".and get both sides of the Issue. The State of Calf. mandated our childern to watch "Frackland" as a part of the enviro science Brain wash going on,but never "allowed" my child the other side of the Story. I helped inform her,and she enjoyed having both sides to make her own informed Decision on the Subject. Years back they sold us on Ethanol,. I was in Favor,I even thought the Mid west Corn Corp, Would fill my tank and save me Cash and the enviroment. My son Corrected me.His advanced high school science teacher helped inform him of the destruction of reservered prarie lands,water pollution from pest, herb,and fert run off,negitive Co2 absorb rates for the past 5 years. The Fracking process is an advancement in Three Key Technology. 3 D seimic imaging to 20,000ft is the norm now, mapping the largest finds in our nations history. Horizontal Drilling, first the ability to drill to those depths,then turn horiz so additional trips to 17,000 ft are not needed,and one Bore hole can frack eight or more "well" areas. The Fracking process is the most of concern and when the EPA, or other State agencies give us Facts that it IS NOT SAFE then I may change my mind. The next Bakken is the Permian Basin in Texas.It is appox. 225 miles long 50to75 miles wide.Runs from Texas to New Mex. and into Mexico. This may be the Second Largest Oil Field in the WORLD. California Has a Field that runs fron San Jose to Barkerfeild. Some States are Keen on economical matters others are just Political.

The "Cruel Joke" of HIS, MyRA Plan, Yaa there are Many.. First is, You get to invest in His debt.Then, you get His Guaranttee not to Loose Money.Sounds like a Great Plan? So you'll get Between What 1.5 to3.6% so @ 1.5% you'll double your investment in 48 Yrs..Yaa thats a Deal? Even @3.6%it will take 20Yrs. By all the Gov't Bonds You Like, You'll only be Poorer For it.

All pissn aside, I was looking at it from the economic side, back of the Napkin SHIT. If the ins.co. are breaking even, with all their pay offs, will our Gov't pay Co. Profits? In five yrs,if more hip, knee,. $100,000+ procedures are done, year after year and massive losses are incurred does the Gov't back those losses and Profits, and for how Long? Smells like Vegas housing market 2004-2007.

I truly feel more Charter /Private schools are the solution. Free Market with Regulation Produces competition,and our Public Education System NEEDS some Competition. If more Access to our Tax dollars,and Choice, was Really an Option.I'm sure we would at least stop the slide. many would then Benefit?.I wish i knew how to Cliky O'Reillys Rant But it was Educational. Inner city , burbs, down town, Could all Benefit form Uniforms, Disipline, Accountablity. Think How the Public system treats the issue of Personal Finance.Most public teachers are not Burdened with such matters so the ignorance is perpetuated. My High School Daughter was made to watch "Gas land", a Documentry, and backed by How many State,Gov't, EPA, studies, none. Was she made to watch "Truth Land"? No. Choice to remove my child should be More of an option for the Parents that DO give a Shit.

Bill O'Reilly did a piece fri. night on that subject,I guess D.C. did a Voucher Prgram and they Flocked to Catholic schools by the Droves. He had Quite the insight since he was a Teacher. You know those teachers don't have public Pensions,and probably made less$, but the Scrore crushed the public Sector. "It's never been a revenue Problem" is DAMN right. The US spends more than any other nation on Education. Problem is we Beleive Education is the Teacher Union Pension Fund. Look a Cali we just raised taxes for "Education" results Nadda. no Accounablity,Tenure, pay and bennies for life on the tax payers Back. Again, the private side KICKS ASS.

Hidden among the pages of the ACA are provisions for the Risk to Insurance Companies, Locked in Profits and those Wonderful Subsidies.Yum. I love Capitalism,But this is Commie, I mean Crony as Hell. I though the Greedy insurance Companies Were the Problem?Now their Profits are backed by Uncle Sam & locked in? So if the Young Decide Not to Pay more and the system starts Losing Billions? If the Profit is cut and those Ins. Co. start losing Cash the Gov't won't Back-up, ? THEN LET THE BAIL OUT BEGIN. This seem Errie. Like "Everyone Should have a Home" Don't get me Wrong,I'm a pessimist, and this ACA WILL Benifit my Family, because of them "subsidies". This is the First time in my life that a Gov't progam will Help me, Jump More

Yes But they do pay themselves extra tax dollars so they suffer less than the rest of the country and the ACA would mean that extra money in the form of " health benifits" Woun't be taxed as income. They have something better,then Us "VITTER AMENDMENT" "Con" gress and their staff have Exempted themselves from the ACA.

#3 The next eruption of Yellowstone seems to be getting closer with each passing year. 1 in 150,000,000 years, this or next year. Dooms Day the World Best Seller

Thanks that is the Point I was trying to make. The point in time, they choose for these studies is Bias. After the Great Crash of 1926 was it really any different ? All them barons and lightly regulated tycoons made off with BUYS of the century. Now, a better study would compare 1% in 1935 to the 1% of today, it is 2013 no? Just last week was a study release stating the FACT that America will emerge as the worlds leading energy producer in a Few short years, talk about Opportunity. It was lost in the Shuffle of another gov't imposed Crisis.There one minute gone the Next.

Why is it that every one of these, WEALTH DISTRIBUTION articels, always Based on 2009 numbers? Because the wealth of Upper Middle America was destroyed like only one other time in history 80 years earlier. Our homes are the Largest investment we have.. Our retirement accounts are the second.. Our income we produce is last.. We Lost our Homes,if not we lost all the equity.. We lost 50% of our IRA's if we sold,or used it to live on. We Lost our jobs,now we cannot invest. Look at Our nations labor participation rate. 2009 was a once in a hundred year Freak Out,a 'Systemic CRISIS' that cost middle America ALL its wealth. This article is "THE KIND" reminds me of "the rich get richer, the Poor get Poorer" mentality. i am Poor, i am not rich. if poor i cannot be rich,it is not Fair, why try..

US NAT GAS reduces US emissions?I Been saying that and get laughed at But all the Info can be found @ natural gas .org The Pew institute with the EPA Both agree? The Star program alone reduces US Methane emissions by some 80 million or was it Billion Tons a year.This reduction was After the Enviros said that Nat gas drilling was releasing "Vast"amounts of G.H.G. The newest fuel is now Distributed by Clean Energy Fuels, Natural gas from DUMPS. This Fuel would just leach into the atmosphere. Is being collected and used for what else Trash Trucks. Waste management uses the same recovery method to run a turbine, ONE DUMP is making more electicity than All the Solar Panels in the US...combined. All the dooms day envirvos, should stop.Every time they wine,We just overcome.We reinvent industries,invent new technology find and develop undiscovered Vast energy Reserves.I've been getting tired of hearing the 'Sky is Falling 'so much that I now Profit when it is said. By the way No Gov't subsidize, taxs or Debt was incured . Just good ole US capitalism

Growing up We were told the World is running Out of Oil, we will need a Gas mask to Breathe the Air.The water will be poisond. Now, L.A. has never been Cleaner,there are No more Smog(snow) Days. Fear of the Future,insures Gov't "protection".Obama will save you.LOL I've been researching American oil,& nat gas industry since O got elected the First time.I thought it would Revolutionize the USA as the energy Leader of the World, and break this Obama-Gov't Fear shit. I WAS WRONG!!!!! The FACTS ARE STILL FACTS... We replace dirty coal plants with Nat gas,Thats Good. China opens a New Coal Fired Plant every 10 Days.Not Good. The USA is the Saudi Arabia of the Worlds bridge Fuel..US Nat. Gas, that's the only Fact I need to Know. I will clean the Planet,support US manufacturing, Taxes, Jobs,and provide the World with the Cleanest of All Fossil Fuels.RE; the pickens plan, and naturalgas.org I will insure my income, retirement, health care,clean air water food and My future... Nobody ever made a Dime panicking. This Gov'ts job is to Keep us Stupid and Afraid of the Future.

What I'm trying to say is; Why are We as a Nation Cutting Off our nose in spite of our Face. THE GREEN SIDE knows the use of nat gas is Clean.It's our only reliable alternative to Coal Power generation now,yet they cry Fossil fuel.. It is a Good thing, we are reducing Green house gases by the Billions of Tons every year. How? Using a Fossil Fuel.

But H2O is a principle Component of green house Gases. If we could only put a fraction of the Billions wasted on Co. like A123, Solindra.. Instead, the President, Challenges business to do it all, Which one MR.Pres. the Filling stations Or the Vehicles? Chicken or the EGG; Meanwhile we pay for Tax rebates to Tesla. LOL The NAT GAS HONDA CIVIC COST $15.00 to fill the Tank.While producing Less emissions than a Prius.

Which means approximately nothing. Your "tech developments" and the word "better" are bullshit. "Better" for whom? Okay the oil companies' profits maybe, but certainly not the victims of their pollution. Naturalgas.org. Has studies from EPA showing we are the only nation reducing our Green house gas Emissions. WHY? US nat. gas, hydraulic fracking,3d seismic imaging,and Horizontal Drilling. Now, granted them trade secrets (scrary chemicals), will ensure the US has the Tech Development/Advantage.To grow stronger and cleaner in the future. THE THIRD CARBON Era, from coal, to Oil to nat gas not only ensures our security. IT HAS REVOLUTIONIZE THE USA,as a world leader/ supplier of the worlds, BRIDGE FUEL. Because its clean ,cheap,abundant and Domestic. The opportunity for a manufacturing renaissance is alive and well.Most chemicals,and oil derived materials will be replaced by Nat gas liquids, Again Cleaner, cheaper, domestic.High energy demand manufacturing will soon belong to the USA.

Yes, and maybe if you took more care with details (like spelling), your business would be more successful and you wouldn't have to whine so much. You remind me of Mary Brown. Whining ya,That's what the largest employer in the US is doing.Not hiring, not expanding,whining and waiting to find out how much this will actually cost me to hire a FULL TIME Employees to expand. Stiring the Pot ya, Shaking my head at a Law that's two feet thick. Thinkn they've done such a good job, with 15% of my Income for SSI. I'm sure they will manage my health care System equally as well.. typos from being awake ,not being able to sleep,worryin about the economy and the future of my business, Call me Mary.

You simply don't know what you are talking about. They are the only group who CURRENTLY has insurance who would be forced to give that up and buy out of the pool for the uninsured. There was a special bill passed by the GOP, that signaled out congressional staffers, that force them to give up their current coverage, this new law merely treats them as everyone else in the country. WOW THANKS FOR THE INFO. Your last line sumed it up.LOL Con us and their staff will be be treated as everyone else , U GOT ME HystericalHelp I cant Breathe

if that were the case WHY pass a LAW to be Exempt?

I stated "vested" as meaning the TAX payed, in an account would earn enough to pay the TAX and provide the benefit.

Typos Suck. , and my spelling sucks I'm self employed, the only Policy I can afford,I can't afford to use. It Will not meet the health care Law. So now my rates will Go up. Now, I'll able to afford the care.

They got spooked out of the market and CONED INTO BONDS. How long does it take for a US Gov't 2.5 % bond to DOUBLE = 28.8 yrs. Good luck with that.Now as interest rates Rise who's going to want a 2.5% bond, when interest rates are 4.5%? Where do u go? the bank with the best deal. The largest US pipline co's pay 6-7% reinvested it doubles in about 10 yrs. Most increase the Dividend every yr or so..and the stock can go up. It can go down, but if ur in for the long haul all the dividends reinvested will buy more for u on the Cheap so your dividends (shares they pay'd u) could pay More. Know what u own.

I was lucky,No. Wolfred taught us something. Teachers have unions.They need not invest skin in the game. Public teachers need not teach fundimentals of financial, self reliance,management ,wealth creation .. Look the Average Working male in the US is fully vested in Social security in 14yrs.Yet we Pay for the rest of our lives so the teachers dont have too!!LOL
