    The Rich pays the Tab

    That would be just as simple to put the payment on the rich snob spoiled bastards than regular, struggled, people like you and me, middle to low income to at least get Health Care we all want. That would be just plain easy, huh?

    The fact of the matter is the rich will complain, bitch and moan about it. They don't want to pay for everyone else's troubled conditions, but yet they would adopt foreign kids, join international causes and yet they live in Beverly Hills, the Hamptons or Florida Keys enjoying our sacrificed money through our sweat and tears since the beginning of time. And later, they would leave small crumbs to local charities that is compared to peanuts.

    And still the government is going towards the rich to save them all from oblivion. Can they think about another idea of reforming Health Care? I'm not defending the rich, by any chance, if they have their millions they have to contribute their fair and just share in order to provide this country what it needs. Why don't the government plan another idea of reforming Health Care? It seems a good idea to tax the rich, but it's not the right thing to do. They really omit regulating Private Health Insurers to bring a honest, non-fraudulent service, they would coverage 100% of everything for a fixed fee, accepts existent conditions with no punishment or price hike, and no, no and no, canceling coverage because they found you "lied" on your application. Also, by hospitals and doctors, they should have a standard price range for every service. Cap the prices, so that would be affordable for the uninsured. Also, it would be fine if they would rate a price based on the patient's income. Another thing would be adding a requirement on social programs like Medicaid which families and individuals have to be granted to this program under the poverty level. It's common sense. But no, they don't want to do it. They think it would bring "socialism", or eliminating these greedy, fraudulent private corporations so they opted for this idea that bring a tax for people who earn more than $200,000 a year to pay the tab. Still they have until August to come up for an effective idea to cover the rest of the 50 million people to receive Health Care with respect. Health Care Shouldn't be a luxury, it's more than that, it's your right!

  • It's been a while

    It's been a long time I don't write about regular stuff, but I'm just severally physically tired. Thanks to those pills I taken to control my depression instead I got allergic to those.

    Another thing is waiting to get my HBP goes down to then take those other pills.

    Yes, MJ's death caused a lot of shock to everyone, others will take advantage and the few doesn't even have the decency of telling shit when the person was alive. And yes, it's was way out exaggerated with putting a memorial at an stadium instead of doing it privately, to then put his kids in the spotlight he unsuccessfully tried to avoid.

  • Post 4th

    I had fun on the 4th. Waking up early in the morning at 5am to then go to work at 7am to then get the fuck out at 11:45am. So I went to my Best Friend's Party at 4:30pm, meeting her boyfriend's family and her friends while eating their dishes they brought on. I also bought my dessert. But we're in a mist of exaggerated rules and regulations over fireworks that honestly spoiled all the fun and celebration. After waiting for late afternoon to shoot some firecrackers from stink bombs to small rockets. Then as the sky turned dark, we had planned to go to see the fireworks.

    The people were scarce in this year, it wasn't the same as prior years. And the fireworks sure wasn't as good as the last year (which I missed, thankfully). Even the place that were shooting those common fireworks was caught on fire and they have to stop the whole "show". It really sucked.

    5 years ago when I was in GR, MI I was enjoying every single minute of these amazing display of fireworks followed by a night bar hopping. But now, it isn't the same anymore. People are becoming less and less interested on seeing fireworks shooting in a display of different colors and sizes because their own problems are bigger than showing their patriotic love for this country.

  • 3rd of July

    Friday 3rd is a day that most businesses are closed because of the independence day. But right now, we have to fight once again to avoid getting this country into a financial catastrophe. Honestly, I see that President Obama is not influenced on himself but rather taking opinions of others who don't want this country prosper instead, only a few. And yes, we're blinded by the latest news of Michael Jackson's passing (it was a week ago! Get over it already!) that we don't even see how some states are struggling to cover their budget to help it's citizens. I just wonder "where's the bailout for these states to save themselves from closing it's doors and shutdown services these people needs?"

    Don't know, all I just know is that I'm very regretful of placing my vote out of emotion instead of conscience, like many people did. Barrack have the body of an African-American but has the mindset of a corrupt white dude. So, what are your choices? What is your decission? What are you gonna do? Putting Firecrakers outside your home that's going to be foreclose? Still, making the grill in a somber season? Making sour lemonade? Or should you go and fight for what's right?

  • This was so Unreal

    Yesterday, I took my first prescribed Prozac to control my depression. I was afraid I was going worst since all these side effects and cautions made me very aware. But the only thing that I had was severe drowsiness and acid stomach, so I have to take them as soon as I come from work while in the morning I have to take my high blood pressure.

    During yesterday, I was feeling mellow while playing wow (World of Warcraft) followed by reading news about Farrah Faucett's passing. She was the icon from Charlie's Angels when I was a kid. Even thought I was in Puerto Rico, it's series was translated in Spanish. But her life was full of domestic abuse by his now husband Ryan O'Neal which caused sensation among tabloids during the 80's and some of the 90's. Now the family is destroyed by her son's drug addiction behavior and followed encarcelation. She was a fighter, who try unsuccessfully to eradicate her illness to regain a normal life.

    But what I still can't get in my brain cells is the tragic news of Michael Jackson. What's scary was that as soon as I read the headlines on cnn that he have a cardiac arrest, I already knew he was dead. A person with cardiac arrest has less possibilities of survival if the person is not been on CPR from the moment he fell to the ground and another thing would be the timing of going to the ER.  But as soon as I found out while my in-law said to me that he was dead, I couldn't believe it. And still to this day I'm still in denial that he died in such an unusual way. But what's bothering me is that when he was alive like many people were so skeptic of his comeback and how much they bash and ignored him and now that he's dead, radio stations were tribute him up their asses with their songs that were forgotten and ignored for years just because of his excentric lifestyle followed by court battles it was like his talent and music was taken for granted.

    Now that he's dead, people are taking advantage in getting richer, don't forget about the opportunist Jesse Jackson telling how good, kind and humane person MJ is, when he was alive he was just hipocrite bashing him. It's sad but that's life. I hope the Jackson family will find peace and strict measures of privacy during his passing.
