33 Times
33 Times, Really?
Last week, the House of Representatives, in a colossal waste
of time, voted for the 33rd time to repeal President Obama’s
healthcare plan.
Going into the vote, there was absolutely no question as to
the result and its utter futility. The Republicans
voted for repeal, as they do every time, and the Democrats (with exception of
the five who voted against the bill when it passed in the first place) voted
against. The repeal effort will then go nowhere in the Democrat-controlled
Senate. Even if it did; it would be vetoed by the president.
Like so much in Washington these days, the exercise in the
House had absolutely nothing to do with what the House is supposed to do, which
is legislate. It was pure political
theater at its worst. Running a movie we have already seen 32 times is beyond
boring. It is offensive.

The Big Problem
It seems that Republicans want everyone to have guns… and no
one to have health care.
GOP thought the sky would fall when Social Security was
passed in the 1930’s and again when Medicare was passed in the 1960’s. Back
then their god Ronald Regan ranted and raved that Medicare was socialist
program and that it would mean the end of America’s freedom. Well, the bad news for them is that Medicare
turned out just fine, just as the Affordable Care Act will.

Employee Theft
A blog by Michael Truitt
Prevent it
Studies have shown that employee theft and embezzlement cost
the U.S. economy as much as a billion dollars every year. And now, unfortunately for you and every
other employer, current economic conditions and easy access to casino gambling
are increasing employees’ temptation to take what does not belong to them.
