The Crooks on Capitol Hill to the election circuit and the rest of the story

I saw on the news that those jokers on Capitol Hill finally decided they’d had enough publicity and went ahead and signed the debt limit bill. I also saw that they left a bunch of air traffic control towers that were under construction in limbo too. I guess they had to hit someone up for job losses, besides themselves. At least they kept Social Security in force, or at least I think they did. Medicare and Medicaid are still going strong too, I hope. It’s really a shame that they still haven’t secured Social Security back into its own account like it was at its inception. They can still steal from it at will. I realize that you can’t get rid of all the crooks in Washington in one day too. But no one said that we couldn’t try!

Sure would be nice to have a presidential election without the ‘he said she said’ of political parties too. Leave the parties at home for a change and start telling people what they’re really going to try to do if they keep their seats. The truth would be a refreshing change for them. Not just a stretch of the truth, but the entire truth. I’ll bet that would be too much to ask from these professional liars though. I was told by one of my Law Professors that you’ll never have true justice until you take public money and politics out of it. She was right too. Capitol Hill is full of those ‘Lobbyists’ that love to treat the Congressmen and women to lunches and pass envelopes to each other, just to further their own company causes. Those companies would do better using those millions that they’re passing around on paying their employees enough to live on; and paying their employees enough to have decent medical care.

Oops. I just stepped on a BIG CAN OF WORMS! The entire medical system in the United States needs a complete overhaul. The entire pharmaceutical industry needs the same type of overhaul too. The Insurance industry is twisting and turning already due to all the catastrophes they’ve had to pay for. The insurance companies are in business to make money, not to be paying out big bucks every year on one disaster after another. The insurance industry has to change their ways too. Hopefully, not to the degradation of its clients along the way though. But you know how it always goes, downhill.

No company is going to take a hit without having somewhere to run to, or some way to get it back. Companies will recoup through either tax loop holes, or through spreading the increased premiums around to all the clients that they have. We are the end of the line people. No one takes a hit themselves; it is always a trickledown effect. That was Reaganomics at its best, trickledown economics. He just didn’t say who the benefactors would really be. Does anyone out there remember the $900.00 toilet seat, acquired through military procurement? They’ve just gotten better at it, and paying more for it.
