Listen to the candidates

When you stop to listen to what the candidates themselves are actually saying, have been saying, the differences are starkly clear.
If you agree with it--vote this way. But, really? Watch it and think.
This is something I found on the web.

What goes down....

Must go up? We are on an economic see saw. Each day we see a few more participants fall off the teeter totter. But, we are healthy and relatively happy. And most of us are not directly affected, yet.

My friend K just lost her job. She was the breadwinner in her family and is VERY worried. I tried to give her some ideas. This really stinks. They fired the three women. She is a finance chick and very bright and actually was "flat" for the year in her investments which in real life means she was WAAAAY ahead and yet they fired her. Unbelieveable.

I wonder if more women get the axe than men.

Economic Depression

I have totally taken a hiatus from writing. I think I was suffering from a kind of depression. since I last wrote the wheels have almost literally come off the bus. The bus is still moving forward, but very slowly. Both presidential candidates do not see the bus so they can't really describe the way to halt the inevitable accident. If anything, they just want to add more gas to the tank.

And why is gas still so much, speaking of which???? Use the gas prices section of Mapquest.com if you want to save some green.

Anyhow, I hear the communist party of NYC is celebrating. They think this is a turnaround for their political beliefs. With the taxes being proposed and the wealth distribution to follow, they may not be wrong.
