I need to state that I am not an American. What I opine at the end of this Article is my reflection on something that I read yesterday evening.

In an article published by The Daily Crux dated Sunday, November 8, 2009 the reporter’s headline screamed:

The Worst Bill Ever

Epic new spending and taxes, pricier insurance, rationed care, dishonest accounting: The Pelosi health bill has it all.

It’s about America’s No. 1 newspaper BLASTS health care bill and about which The Daily Crux Editor, Brian Hunt had this to say:

If you read just one thing on the health care bill this week, make it the Wall Street Journal’s new opinion piece titled “The Worst Bill Ever.”

The essay points out this bill “has it all”: Dishonest accounting, tax hikes, price hikes, and wealth distribution. It’s almost as if the Democrats are purposely trying to destroy the economy.

We wholeheartedly agree with the “Journal”… This is one of the worst pieces of legislation ever considered by Congress. We recommend reading this piece several times and forwarding it to everyone you know… especially your elected representative.

The Daily Crux points to the Wall Street Journal that described it in one of their passages as:

In a rational political world, this 1,990-page runaway train would have been derailed months ago. With spending and debt already at record peacetime levels, the bill creates a new and probably unrepeatable middle-class entitlement that is designed to expand over time. Taxes will need to rise precipitously, even as ObamaCare so dramatically expands government control of health care that eventually all medicine will be rationed via politics.

Read the Wall Street Journal report by clicking on the button below.


After having read Wall Street Journal’s say on the matter, I have this to comment.

Does Wall Street Journal take into consideration the billions – even trillions which was spent during the Bush Administration for wars in Afghanistan and Iraq?

How does that horrendous waste of money for wars, (wars that were fraught without tangible gain for America) compare to the Health Bill that is now being assailed as being ominous for the American citizens?

Truth be said, if there is anything that is to be considered – and I quote, the “Worst Bill Ever” and an “Epic new spending and taxes, pricier insurance, rationed care, dishonest accounting” the Afghanistan/Irag War expenditure has it all.

My Song Favourites #2

Help Me Make It Through The Night
By Windy · Comments (0)

For as long as there’s romance, this sensual country song will never become stale. Resounding simple lyrics composed by Kris Kristofferson who admitted that his inspiration for this song came from an interview with Frank Sinatra.

When asked what he believed in, Frank replied, “Booze, broads, or a bible…whatever helps me make it through the night.

Sung by several notable Singer mega stars through decades, Sammi Smith’s recording reached No. 1 on the U.S. country charts.

Take the ribbon from your hair, Shake it loose and let it fall,
Lay it soft upon my skin. Like the shadows on the wall.

Come and lay down by my side till the early morning light
All I’m takin’ is your time. Help me make it through the night.

I don’t care what’s right or wrong, I won’t try to understand. /center>
Let the devil take tomorrow. Lord tonight I need a friend.

>Yesterday is dead and gone and tomorrow’s out of sight
And it’s sad to be alone. Help me make it through the night.

I don’t care what’s right or wrong,I won’t try to understand.
Let the devil take tomorrow Lord tonight I need a friend.

Yesterday is dead and gone and tomorrow’s out of sight
And it’s sad to be alone. Help me make it through the night.

I don’t wanna be alone. Help me make it through the night.

My Song Favourites

Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow - Brenda Lee
By Windy · Comments (1)

Timeless magic is something I know some of the best of Songs convey through its melody, lyrics and rendition. That and many more other qualities that one can think of which makes some Songs evergreen greats.

“Will You Still Love Tomorrow” was composed by Carole King and first recorded by The Shirelles.

The unaffected clarity by Brenda Lee is one of song’s best renditions and makes it one of My Song Favourites

lyrics

Tonight you’re mine completely,
You give your love so sweetly,
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes,
But will you love me tomorrow?

Is this a lasting treasure,
Or just a moment’s pleasure,
Can I believe the magic of your sighs,
Will you still love me tomorrow?

Tonight with words unspoken,
You said that I’m the only one,
But will my heart be broken,
When the night (When the night)
Meets the morning sun.

I’d like to know that your love,
Is love I can be sure of,
So tell me now and I won’t ask again,
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?

The Eiffel Tower, Paris, France

It has been reported that beneath the Eiffel Tower could lie the biggest oil deposit in Western Europe. Eureka!, what a discovery! And what will become of the Eiffel Tower henceforth?

Indeed, while Parisians sip coffee and nibble croissants in Montmarte… as tourists stroll through the Louvre, and walk along the Left Bank… there’s an ocean of sweet crude oil bubbling directly beneath their feet.

The French Oil Ministry has confirmed more than 40 billion barrels.

It’s enough to fuel total U.S. oil demand for 5.2 years, according to the Energy Information Administration.

Enough to fill more than 2.54 million Olympic-sized swimming pools…

And 27 times more oil than ExxonMobil produces annually.

(Please move your mouse cursor over image below for image zoom-in)

So why didn’t one of Europe’s major oil companies such as Total pounce on this oil long ago?

The answer: They didn’t have the right equipment.

You can’t simply drill an oil well under the Eiffel Tower and start filling up oil barges on the River Seine.

To access oil beneath a major world landmark, you need special equipment, and special expertise.

And that’s exactly what the Tiny Texan is bringing to the equation, all the way from America.

How to Take Advantage of this Opportunity Now?

Mike Ward goes on to explain…

Why We MUST Limit Participation to the First 500 Who Respond

Having too many investors piling into a company of this size could easily drive the price higher. And we’re not in the business of driving stocks higher – we’re in the business of riding them to the moon.

That’s why we can only accept the first 500 readers who respond to this particular letter.

Collect Cash from Europe’s “Royal Coffers”

We’ve found what could be the greatest income-producing investment ever. But you won’t hear about this from your broker, or the Wall Street Journal.

You see, 153 years ago, Queen Isabel of Spain decreed the creation of a “Royal Coffer.” By paying out money to Europe’s most powerful families on a regular basis, this “bottomless” cash supply would ensure that those families stayed rich no matter what.

They have been tapping this bank’s vaults for generations now, collecting money whenever needed.

Money Map banking expert (and former U.S. Treasury official) Martin Hutchinson has found a completely legal way for Americans to tap into this same royal cash source for the first time.

One simple move with your regular broker can ensure that you, too, pocket an extra $4,000 every month from now on… automatically.

You’ll discover the details in How to Get Automatic Cash Payments Today.

This report comes free with your trial subscription to The Money Map Report.

Of course, you’ll also receive everything else mentioned so far.

Therefore, if you have “loose change” (hardly likely in these financially lean and mean times, because I certainly don’t – LOL!) for this sort of investment, read more by clicking on the “Money Map” button below.
