Evaluating My Worth
Here is a blog from a young woman that everyone alive today needs to read, and be aware of…. you will be seeing a lot of stories like hers on this blog in the future, for I believe strongly that it is a society-wide plague that desperately needs to be addressed…. and isn’t…… please read it through, as difficult as it may be to handle the emotion it is sure to engender in anyone with any degree of sensitivity…. the subject at issue in this post needs to be stopped!….

Few hours in the outer space
Here is an amazingly compelling, compassionate post, on an unusual topic..or at least, a topic not often considered as discussion worthy, but should be…..
On November 3rd 1957, Russian space agencies launched a dog named Laika in the orbit…and with that, she became the first animal to have been in the orbit. The world(except the americans, that is) looked on, at this historical event, with great awe, admiration and sense of achievement that all the mankind shared. However, in the jubiliant mood and celebrations, the world forgot Laika, who died a lonely death, few hours later in the orbit. Never in the documented history of mankind, an animal sacrifice was celebrated with such jubiliance and sense of achievement.
But what I can’t stop wondering, is what would laika be thinking? What would she be feeling? Obviously she wasn’t aware of the achievement that she has accomplished for the mankind, and for that matter, entire living world. Ushered in to a confined space, then feeling weird sense of upward push out of the blue and…

*Congressional Reform Act of 2011*, now *2012*
Ffolkes,
At last, someone who gets it!…. I will sign this in a New York second when it becomes a petition….. I don’t normally send stuff like this via email, or post twice in one day, but I found this on Facebook this morning, and this is the proper venue for it to get to everyone who can make a difference….you.
Warren Buffett, “I could end the deficit in 5 minutes,” he told CNBC. “You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election. The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The people demanded it. That was in 1971…before computers, e-mail, cell phones, etc. Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took 1 year or less to become the law of the land…all because of public pressure.
Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise. In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the
message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.
*Congressional Reform Act of 2011* (too late, 2012 is here, so let’s delay this no longer….gigoid)
1. No Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman collects a salary while in office
and receives no pay when they are out of office.
2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security. All
funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security
system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system,
and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for
any other purpose.
3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans
do.
4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay
will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the
same health care system as the American people.
6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American
people.
7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective 1/1/12.
The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen. Congressmen
made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor,
not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours
should serve their term’s), then go home and back to work.
If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then it will only take
three days for most people (in the U.S.) to receive the message. Maybe it is
time.
THIS IS HOW YOU (WE) FIX CONGRESS!!!!! If you agree with the above, pass it on.

Farewell, Bill of Rights……
The gravest danger threatening society in this country has been realized. The United States Bill of Rights has been repealed by collusion of the U.S. Congress, the Supreme Court, and the President; it was signed into law on December 31, 2011, and takes immediate effect on January 1, 2012 (uh, yesterday). It is suggested you read this quote from the article, read the article, then return here for our discussion of its content….
The “Bill of Rights has come to a sudden and catastrophic end with the President’s signing of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a law that grants the U.S. military the “legal” right to conduct secret kidnappings of U.S. citizens, followed by indefinite detention, interrogation, torture and even murder. This is all conducted completely outside the protection of law, with no jury, no trial, no legal representation and not even any requirement that the government produce evidence against the accused.” –excerpted from the article

The party is now over. Big Brother has assumed control, and the rest of us will be hard pressed to wrest control over our lives back from them without a fight of some kind. The introductory statement above, alluding to collusion amongst the separate branches of our government, is made clear by the very fact that, for this document to even be considered as legal according to the Constitution, the Judiciary Branch would have to be in tacit and written agreement with the two other parts of our three part system, thereby reneging on their duty to act as a check to the legislative and executive branches, to safeguard our Constitution, and Bill of Rights.
All of the first ten given rights in the Bill of Rights have been declared null and void, without any objection from the judiciary. It seems fairly obvious that this country is now in the hands of people who have no regard for human rights, unless it pertains to their own; anyone who disagrees out loud with their new regulations don’t deserve any rights, in their eyes. And according to this new legislation, foisted on society while it was busy being distracted once again by rhetoric and illusory holiday seasons, anyone who is even suspected of being against these laws may now be kidnapped in the dark of night, with never a word of justification of any sort to anyone; none is now required, there is no oversight at all.
Considering some of what has been written here, and in other places where the author’s work may be found, they will be coming for me very soon….oh excuse me, someone is at the door…. be right back…..
