Seven Year Itch

It is like a partner, or spouse telling you where they won't go, but refusing to tell you where they will. Today the GOP controlled Congress will possibly decide if millions of Americans will lose their healthcare. The reason we say possibly is that few folks know which version of the bill senators will be voting for.

After seven years of badmouthing the Affordable Care Act and six months of playing golf, the President and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will attempt to move a plan forward to hold a vote on repealing the Affordable Care Act.

Big City Homeless

Submitted by ub on

Has the number of homeless people significantly increased in large metropolitan areas? Folks without a permanent place for them to live are most often unable to keep regular, safe, secure and adequate city housing.

This problem bodes poorly for the future. Decades of research have shown the staggering societal costs of families with children in poverty. The kids grow up with less education and lower earning power. They are more likely to end up with drug addictions, psychological traumas, diseases, and could possibly end up in prison.

One of his original promises was to drain the swamp, but now that slogan may go down the sewer. However, be warned that a clogged sewer pipe could leave all US voters ripe for a drain-cleaning scam.

The abundance of unscrupulous so called leaders has led to an all-time low in trustworthiness in our government, which connects the US House to The Senate and leads directly to The White House.

Will the people of the world allow an international crackdown on a free press? @POTUS has attacked the media at home and abroad, a move that some press freedom experts say could empower autocrats to take anti-press steps against journalists in other countries.

The president's attacks on the fake news media are not unusual he has called the mainstream media the “enemy of the American people”, but bashing the American media during an overseas press conference has incited fears that Trump might inspire autocrats and dictators around the world.

Women Rule

Submitted by ub on

Can a female become a true hero? Yes, absolutely, but how many of them have served as emperors?

Even though according to the Confucian beliefs having a woman rule would be as unnatural as having a "hen crow like a rooster at daybreak," during the most glorious years of the Tang dynasty a woman did rule and ruled successfully. She was Wu Zetian, the only female in Chinese history to rule as emperor.
