This morning on the television he indicated... what we would have cut and where we would have cut etc.

Well all I can say to that Mr Johnson is that your lot had long enough in Government so why didn't you deal with it then? Had you have made the appropriate cuts, we would likely have a Labour Government to this day!

Thank goodness you weren't able to help!

It would be nice if people could treat people well enough that "unions" are not

needed to begin with in ways...because employers should understand without

wages there's an loss of "comumer spending"....which results in an loss of

business over all.  But I agree...people are mad that they made the rules in the

past and now tell us to do the cut backs to help them out...bankers over here

have an bad bad reputation right now with the average guy.  People felt that

if Obama was gracious enough to bail them out...it should of flowed downward and bailed others out...to tell the truth it hasn't... and now people

want to knwo where the money went to. Giving them more money made us

less of consumers in many cases....that is why I said this fancy huge "La

Vegas" styled cascino I am not sure we will have the money to support it..

I hope if it passes they go slowly on its buidling and aim for family orientated

activites to begin with an not all cascino. The money they want from this is

to support "schools" and my opinion of schools is I have never seen them

ever..and I mean not ever...stay on budget to begin with.  I also worry about

prostition and drugs on my back doorstep from it if it's not successful. I

might go there for the family actvities of the water park and and blowling

alley and shopping mall...but the cascino's are our Native American only

means of outside income in this state...and they do it tribally...not independently in the profits...if we change the rules now....as is said...

anyone will be able to open up an gambling establishment...the Seneca

Native Americans are right now battling to have to not have to pay taxes on

the herbal ciggarettes they sell...and smoking is on ts way out for the most

part in most states...this is thier only outside income.  Somewhere along the

line people have to be free of "taxes" for everything they do daily....otherwise

there is no such thing as freedom in the world.

Someone put up an sign west side of Sandy, Oregon along the highway....

"Free land" if you will build an "tavern or pub".....high class it might be well

received...and building of " drunkness"....no. No tto change the subject...but

to mention something...an new lady "cop" took over an town down on the

border in Mexico...she says she plans to kick out both the rival drug cartels

that are currently fighting together over who can travel on the road to get

into town in the area....I know women when they are angry...she'll most likey

not blink an eye with her automatic weapon gunning them down without an

bat of an eye...reguardless of what side of the drug cartel they are on.  She

claim it use to be an nice town to go an visit and live in before they showed

up trying to take it over for everyone else.

Yes, it is...my hubby is now working 4 days an week...my son so far as an

truck driver has worked 3 days this week, we had to drive my sons car home

so he could driver his wife home with sharp pains in her left side....they are

wondering about kidney stones...which has me so upset I'm doing my "stress"

breathing because I can't afford to help them any more...that's why we are

so in debt. I think we should rethink the "free land for tavern or Pub on the

Freeway to Sandy, Oregon and call it the "Flamin' Bottle and serve food

and drink that can be set on fire...like cherries jubilee...but I watch these

food shows and one of them one time showed an all marble bar top...and

there was this drink called an flamin Jack....expensive....not something you

ordered all the time.....but they put down an thin line of booze to lite after

making the drink an ways...and lit the top of the bar and slide the glass down

at the same time....flame was then put out by smothering down with an

bar towel made for the purpose....just an occasional drink or food that was

served in "flame"...such as peaches, pudding cakes with Rum gives off an

dramatic presentation.  It also holds down the drinking an bit also...so you

can have an class pub...not an flop house of drunks.

Sorry to hear that, Shirley. If you had a National Health Service over there you would be able to get free treatment. Over here the treatment is free but people moan if they have to pay to use the hospital carparks lol.
