No doubt.

It’s just another thing when its done by the fedgov, even indirectly, especially during a depression.

Congrats on your FIL’s turn-around. Now would be a good time to get his affairs in order, such as wills, trusts, long term care options, etc. Not that my husband and I have dones that for ourselves, but that is what we are going through with my mom. It’s a pain.

We had a storm last evening that brought 2 inches of rain, and there may be more later today-yippee! In one of the beds in the side yard, there are 8 little pink rain lily plants getting ready to bloom-I will cut the flowers and some decorative native grass for a bouquet for the kitchen island...

Without his umbilical teleprompter
Obama puts his foot in his mouth-
Such as his latest inimical words
That send his credibility south

He’s scolding the business owners-
Even the ones who are very small
Didn’t open that shop themselves-
Government did it, after all

It happened because of public works
And now you must repay them in tax-
What the hell has he been smoking
And where is he getting his “facts”?
