......I don't post here as I have been indeterminately moderated. But in this case I just wanted to let you know that I am not coming back at this stage of the game.

I am glad to see people pushing so many progressive buttons here today......it is enjoyable. I may not post but I will read. For free of course.....that comes with "moderation".....no paying for censorship!

Have a great day!

Well Bruce, you failed to give the source so I will.

It came from examiner.com and was written by liberal pundit Ryan Witt.

The facts are skewed and in the piece which you copied and pasted here, the author made other points supporting health care, backing up liberal positions, etc.

Now from Wikipedia, a bit about the source, www.examiner.com:

"Examiner.com has been criticized for its lack of verification and fact-checking of stories published on the site, including accusations of plagiarism".

It is also about state agencies treating businesses as if they are guilty until proven innocent. Many years ago I owned a business and the NH Department of Labor came out to the business based on a complaint from a disgruntled employee who we let go due to their performance.

They investigated the complaint and then found that it was not valid. While they were at our business, they ran through all of our records with a fine tooth comb.

We had helped some friends who had a 14 year old who wanted to work. We had hired him LEGALLY and followed the law to a "T" with one exception. He only worked during the Summer and did so for two years at 14 and 15 years old. The law at the time was that he could only work so many hours and only until 9PM. My wife, being thoughtful, had him punch out when his mom picked him up.

Being in the busy season, some nights it was 9:06PM or 9:02PM, etc. He had stopped working but he punched out when his mother arrived to pick him up. Well, the inspector found that for two years there were many punches like this. This is the ONLY issue which they found. The fine was based on some formula plus $50 per violation. It costs us literally thousands of dollars.

The law is the law but something like that, is totally anti-business. No one was abused or taken advantage of. A $500 fine and a letter would have been enough penalty but NO, the state was making money on a business and the arrogance of the inspector was stunning arrogant.....typical bureaucrat.

We appealed and his parents wrote letters to no avail. I am sure similar things happen.

......now represent a different majority of the voters.

Democrats feverishly pushed to pass and now Republicans can feverishly push to return things to "normal".

No kidding!

Thank you Barack H. Obama for your lack of leadership, your record deficit spending and your unwillingness to build back the economy!

Not much that we already do not know!

Not the fact that the planet is in a cyclical warming period, but the fact that global warming is being used by progressives to attempt to dictate social policy.

If progressives are so sure and so certain that this agenda is "settled science" and real, let them be the first to revert to an agrarian lifestyle, stop driving their automobiles, completely convert their homes to solar and wind energy, drive electric cars and cut all consumption which they feel contribute to climate change.

In 5 years we can evaluate the "progress' of their efforts and find out if man caused climate change is a hoax or a reality.

China and India have NO intention of going "green". If we listened to the hysteria of the Left and were to hamstring ourselves, our future would be little more than that of a third world country as India and China would be world powers and our climate on this planet (if the myths about climate change are really "truths") would be no better. We would have unilaterally sunk our own way of life.

So, progressives, set the example and if it works, we might be willing to follow. Put your money where your mouth is!
