Aloha

 

Spirit Guides all in All.

 

I hope these simple humble thoughts

of mine helps us in some special way

 in our life and city & Country.

 

 

 

So let us all have some fun now cracking some political Mac nuts!

 

I have to thank President George Bush Jr. for his incredible work as president of our country for almost 8 years and our Senate and Congress.

 

Oh my God,

what more can be said other than Bazaar energy or done to show the truth manifesting in America and around this world in pain and suffering because of miss-use of nepotism politics.

WoW !

 

 

 

 

 

Aloha ladies & gentlemen !

 

 

 

Before we get into politics;

Remember to smile in the mirror of life,

because life is also about Faith, Hope &

the Good we can co-create on Earth each and everyday.

 

 

 Forget about politics for now.

 

Healing for all of us, in these stressful,

and challenging days ahead of us all,

 are the words we want to hear are:

 

 "I love you"

 

in all languages and in all nations

to those we  love;

and a loving hug will be good 2.

 

Politics is hell.

 

 

I have for over 30 years dedicated my life

 to our freedoms in America in my own simple and humble way.

It is a miracle to all.

I have stepped over the threshold of the Senate Chambers as Odysseus and all is not well for the Senators and the President today. The wooers party is over as in the NewOdyssey that Homer wrote for America.

 

 

All truth passes through three stages:    First, it is ridiculed;    Second, it is violently opposed; and    Third, it is accepted as self-evident.   -- Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)

 

 

 

Please look within this web sit for "Very explosive and Hot issues of treason & conspiracy in American politics today" facing all of us today.

 

 

 

I apologize and I am embarrassed for having to say these important obvious American  political and life altering event-things that are happening today and each every day with the Iraq War in Chaos and the country economically falling apart and racism is spreading again as global warming is a reality today.  This is Americas sick condition today and a dysfunctional and corrupt political America, all the while the government and it's news media as CNN, FOX and ABC or what ever other TV stations spreading and making excuses, that there is no conspiracy and all is well in America just like the Confederates in the Civil War.

 

As time passes by each and every day and while the cost of food, health care, education, declining employment and gasoline rises daily; besides all the other news that the Federal Reserve and our economy will crash with the banks writing off trillions of bad debt world wide.

Their solution?

The Federal Reserve wants to create a new NorthAmerica currency with Canada & Mexico crashing the dollar to hell. And they want to merge the NY Stock exchange with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange with the Federal Reserve.

 

And  I predict that the White House & Senate conspiracy and treason in our government and on Wall Street will become self evident to all in America and the world because of greed!

 

 Even if one has a Spam brain and two eggs for eyes as in a Loco Moco breakfast in Hawaii; yet all is true that I share with you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Aloha bravefolks !

 

 

Million's of happy visitors world wide spun the counter over again and

my friend Sunny will lick your ear & make you laugh right now!

 

We also must have some humor within this web site to laugh about no-thing political.

" The #1 write-in candidate in America in Hawaii."

 

 

 

Believe it or not,

this is the most important political web site in American history today.

 

We need to stop and look at the BIG Picture in American Life and in our life.

 

 

 

I Know most people in America do not want to hear the truth because it scares the hell out of them and they don't know what to do!

 

Yet the truth is before us all now.

It is our choice.

We can see the light of day or be as an Ostrich like and burry our head in the sand out of fear of the truth!

Nobody is going to leave the earth alive so you might as well face the truth and it will set you free!

 

All the political nit picking and bull going on with Hillary, Obama & McCain has nothing to do with the truth and is a distraction to the truth in America.

 

Can we trust nepotism politicians at all?

No!

 

The Big Picture and the truth is right here

and now with-in this web site.

 

There are no problems with me only solutions.

 

"The Solutions" are right here and now

with-in here in this web site.

I said all this painful-political non sense of the New World Order known today as the new third Reich (NTR) & globalism factories in China (Bush's war to increase oil prices with his Saudi friends increasing all commodities world wide , Veteran suffering and civilian PTSD growing among our citizens , and the economic Federal Reserve & Banking crash, the dismantling of American factories & Gasoline prices skyrocketing & much more destruction) 

is going to happen on my web site back in "2000"

when I first ran for President of this USA.

No one wanted to listen and now it is a reality no one wants to accept yet all true.

 

Many trusted the Tower of babble (CNN & FOX) for the truth and eat crow today.

By the time everyone wakes up to the truth I am sharing with you after this election the NTR will have total control of life through oil and, gasoline will be $10.00 a gallon as in England and all disposable income will go to food and survival for most people world wide. Water will be as expensive a commodity as oil is today.

 

 

 

This is before Bush Jr., Obama,

Clinton or McCain even thought of running for president while I did.

Local news prediction!

 

 

Oh my God.

 

Read the news of what's coming our way in Hawaii, Hawaii.

4/27/2008

Many think that because many have stated as in Mayan and other calendars that the years 2012 or 2015 are import event years which is true, yet the time & date is actually now 2008 =  # 1.

 

5/17/2008

Anyone  living in Kona Hawaii yesterday had to say what the hell is going on today.

A total choke out.

No disaster shelters set up by the state nor the county. Major health damage to all citizens and tourist. 

 

The Hawaii news media are hiding the serious life threatening health issues because if everyone in the world knows what is happening today in Hawaii, it would totally crash the tourist and real estate markets for years to come.  Shame on them for not caring for our own people's health. Greed!

 As I have stated we have conspiracy & treason even in Hawaii all because of money. They sold their souls.

 

 People are choking in Hawaii  & natural disasters are spreading across America & this whole earth!

Paradise on earth? Greed took over.

People refused to do Hoponopono, they have serious vanity here.   Why God now?

You tell me if you know better!

I have a gut feeling and I hope I am wrong, that Kilauea Volcano will be exploding unexpectedly & violently & an earthquake within 60 days. Sometime between April 27-June 31, 2008.  After the "Merrier" Monarch festival in Hilo, Hawaii; which will probably be the most powerful in modern Hawaii history because the Hula dancers will be breathing and drawing upon this incredible spiritual energy flowing through Pele and Lono and the gods and goddesses of Hawaii, Hawaii.

 I also feel we will see lava flowing from Mana Loa &  Hualalai in Hawaii, Hawaii, The Kingdom of Hawaii. 

Due to the fact this volcano is linked to all other volcanoes by the great oceans of magma within the earth I feel it  will set off a chain reaction of environmental disasters all across the earth. I feel many will feel & see & experience the reaction in most of the major capitals of the world as natural disasters. It is going to change the direction of all politics because the government's in many countries will be shut down for awhile due to the many disasters world wide.  The US Senate will have an earthquake while in session because a higher power will get their wooers attention that the party is over now.

I hope that the State of Hawaii and the County of Hawaii has come out of denial and has disaster shelters in place fully stocked with supplies and that the highway in Kona has been completed after so many years because there will be people who have to make an exodus to safety. I believe some will die and others who will need medical attention and a place to rest.

Honolulu is going to shake and crash and choke, Maui and Heleakala pop, Molokai & Kauai will all shake rattle and choke with ash 2!

 

I have said all this as a public service warming on Big Island Speaks Out  Channel 53 for three months now.

This is phase I of I, II, and III. There is more coming which I will not discuss with you until the explosion.

God be with us all.

Greed has ruined the Aina world wide. Great Spirit "no like" what is going on.

I know some very special Hawaiian people and and even a special combat disabled veteran who have totally been screwed on the Big Island and this may be Gods retributions until the State & Federal governments and those individuals pay up and apologize for what they took from gods people as even me. This may all end up costing the state and the feds 5 Billion Swiss Francs (USA dollars are useless) before it's all said and done. And that would be a deal to save Hawaii.  This is all a special treat for all the high maka maka's who have been rotten to the core all the while wearing a false mask that they are good; just like wolves in sheep's clothing ruining the good people with their vanity and greed.

As the Greek mythology story goes about Baucus & Philemon the Greek gods sent them to earth as  humble poor souls passing by they came to earth as I to see if there are any good people left on earth and few were found to be good for God.

 I am told there are Kahunas and then there are Kahunas. There are medicine men and then there are medicine men. There are adepts and then there are adepts.

I have placed Unique one-of-a-kind in the world Quartz crystals in Kealalakekua and Kailua-Kona, Hawaii bay's today 4/27/2008 to activate the release of very powerful spiritual energy!

Whale, Dolphins, Pyramid, and others to activate all crystals  world wide being they are used to send energy and information as in silicon as in computers and cell phones and satellites; this is all state of the art. Very much like a fairy tale yet real and  a real living  trilogy today.

Have you noticed in Kona that starting April 27th the day we placed the great whale in the bay it has been raining regularly?

 

The quiet before the storm!

Don't let that fool you that all is well because it is not; better be prepared.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The internet, electronic banking, Satellites and most electronic equipment will not work at this time. 

Do you have a candle & matches, water & food  & medicine & gear & a Coleman LP stove ready?

 Better be as a boy or girl scout and be prepared for camping out.

 

 

Be prepared, you have been warned by an angel.

This is a time for prayers for all our well being.

Our Economy;

 and Our Cities and States well being into the 21st century.

The best way to rebuild our economy is to invest "Trillions" in America to rebuild America and all of our infrastructures,

 and build new high tech factories and research facilities and with the many new government and private construction projects, this will create millions of good paying jobs and benefits for 100 years and even increase the tax base for the states and the feds.

The stock and bond market will skyrocket upwards giving them many years of stable growth and security !

Also eliminate Capital gains and Divided tax and Income tax and Inheritance tax.

We should only have a 3% sales tax at the most.

 

 

The Immediate Planning and Re-tooling all of our infrastructure    in

all   Cities and States    to State of the Art Technology and  with

common sense and logic for the future   Generations   of Americans.

 

We need to build New state of the art factories and means of producing our own goods as we always have in the past,

 that made America wealthy & prosperous.

 We can no longer not depend or trust? on China or India or any other nation for supplying us with what we use daily. I know it has been good for all

 but at what real cost to each country and it's people.

I have good friends in China and I do love China and it's people and great culture, they are hard workers and good people. I have good friends in India, and I love Indians and they are hard workers and good people also with a great culture.

Yet we must protect America and our own people who are also hard workers and good people.

 

 

Is China poisoning us with tainted goods as an invisible enemy by default or on purpose?

Possibly Yes! Can we really trust China politics? No.

 

 

 

I ask you to look into what is a Fabian society, and what is a Fiat economy?

 

You should do a Google search and learn the truth!

What is happening today with "globalism" but a modern socialism today world wide run by the wealthiest as always.

 

This "globalism" will become a major economic disaster in our America's standard of living in 2008 not only for the rich, middle class and the poor but every place we look.

 

Nor can we afford for our own security and well being to loose any more basic customer service jobs in America to foreign countries, and the high technological jobs and employment of our educated citizens to foreign countries,

 no matter how good the opportunities appear they are to us as cheap goods and services.

We must protect America and our selves and our Nation from the dumping of cheap labor and products world wide.

 

 

 

 

As of today 12/18/2007 The Fed's have already put in over $70 Billion to shore up the banking industry. Lower fed rates only put money into social security for the international banks writing off billions in the real estate securities implosion world wide. The public who is borrowing today is not getting the great rates.

Sunday Mr. Alan Greenspan added to the "market's ill humor" that "STAGFLATION" is upon America and stagflation is when- "Inflation accelerates and the economy weakens- is a growing reality given Wall Street data this quarter.

And of course the real cost of the "Iraq War" is in the Trillions which will with out anyone's doubt cause a major recession in America, a USA currency depression of possibility of $3.00 US dollar to $1.00 EURO in 2008 as world economies start dumping the  US Treasury bonds in favor of other world markets.

Euro 1.40 to 1 US Dollar falling more?

America's housing market is done for 5-10 years.

 

 

Yet this is your year!

"And great opportunities to create a better and good life and living is upon us all. If you look for the bargains and opportunities, you will find them and prosper in 2008." JJP.

 

 

The Economist on Cracks in the façade

Mar 22nd 2007 | NEW YORK AND WASHINGTON. DC
From The Economist print edition

America's riskiest mortgages are crumbling. How far will the damage spread?

 

CASEY SERIN knows all about the excesses of America's housing bubble. In 2006 the 24-year old web designer from Sacramento bought seven houses in five months. He lied about his income on “no document” loans and was not asked for anything so old-fashioned as a deposit. Today Mr Serin has debts of $2.2m. Three of his houses have been repossessed; others could share that fate. His website, Iamfacingforeclosure.com, has become a magnet for those whose mortgages are in trouble.

Mr Serin and people like him are Wall Street's biggest uncertainty just now. How many Americans are saddled with mortgages they cannot afford on houses that are losing value? The answer matters to anyone who bought high-yielding mortgage-backed securities when a booming property market made mortgages look safe. It also matters to investment banks, which packaged the securities and often own subsidiaries that originate mortgages. It may determine whether America's economy falls into recession. It could even affect the outcome of next year's elections.

Most of the damage so far is in the “subprime” mortgage market, which lends to people whose income is too low, or whose credit history too patchy, to qualify for an ordinary mortgage. On March 13th the Mortgage Bankers Association reported that 13% of subprime borrowers were behind on their payments. Some 30 of America's subprime lenders have closed their doors in the past three months. The cost of insurance against default for the riskiest tranches of subprime debt has soared. The worst effects may not be felt until the mortgage payments of many borrowers with no equity in their homes rise sharply.

Is this a mere irritant in America's vast economy, or the start of something much worse? Opinion on Wall Street is divided. Most argue that the mortgage mess, though a blight on anyone caught up in it, will not spread. The number of mortgages at risk is too small for defaults to threaten everyone else. Even if a fifth of the $650 billion of adjustable-rate subprime loans went bad, that would be a blip in the $40 trillion market for debt. If repossessions extended the housing downturn, it would not derail an economy that—housing apart—remains healthy, with unemployment of 4.5% and jobs growing strongly.

Mother Jones on The Ungreening of America: Dirty Secrets

News: No president has gone after the nation's environmental laws with the same fury as George W. Bush -- and none has been so adept at staying under the radar.

By Osha Gray Davidson

September/October 2003 Issue

IN THE EARLY 1980s you didn't need to be a member of EarthFirst! to know that Ronald Reagan was bad for the environment. You didn't even have to be especially politically aware. Here was a man who had, after all, publicly stated that most air pollution was caused by plants.*

By contrast, while George W. Bush gets low marks on the environment from a majority of Americans, few fully appreciate the scope and fury of this administration's anti-environmental agenda. "What they're doing makes the Reagan administration look innocent," says Buck Parker, executive director of Earthjustice, a nonprofit environmental law firm. The Bush administration has been gutting key sections of the Clean Water and Clean Air acts, laws that have traditionally had bipartisan support and have done more to protect the health of Americans than any other environmental legislation. It has crippled the Superfund program, which is charged with cleaning up millions of pounds of toxic industrial wastes such as arsenic, lead, mercury, and vinyl chloride in more than 1,000 neighborhoods in 48 states. It has sought to cut the EPA's enforcement division by nearly one-fifth, to its lowest level on record; fines assessed for environmental violations dropped by nearly two-thirds in the administration's first two years; and criminal prosecutions-the government's weapon of last resort against the worst polluters-are down by nearly one-third.

The administration has abdicated the decades-old federal responsibility to protect native animals and plants from extinction, becoming the first not to voluntarily add a single species to the endangered species list. It has opened millions of acres of wilderness-including some of the nation's most environmentally sensitive public lands-to logging, mining, and oil and gas drilling. Under one plan, loggers could take 10 percent of the trees in California's Giant Sequoia National Monument; many of the Monument's old-growth sequoias, 200 years old and more, could be felled to make roof shingles. Other national treasures that have been opened for development include the million-acre Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument in Arizona, the 2,000-foot red-rock spires at Fisher Towers, Utah, and dozens of others.

And then, of course, the White House has all but denied the existence of what may be the most serious environmental problem of our time, global warming. After campaigning on a promise to reduce emissions of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, Bush made an abrupt about-face once elected, calling his earlier pledge "a mistake" and announcing that he would not regulate CO2 emissions from power plants-even though the United States accounts for a fourth of the world's total industrial CO2 emissions. Since then, the White House has censored scientific reports that mentioned the subject, walked away from the Kyoto agreement to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions, and even, at the behest of ExxonMobil, engineered the ouster of the scientist who chaired the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

So why aren't more people aware that George W. Bush is compiling what is arguably the worst environmental record of any president in recent history? The easy explanations-that environmental issues are complex, that war and terrorism push most other concerns off the front pages-are only part of the story. The real reason may be far simpler: Few people know the magnitude of the administration's attacks on the environment because the administration has been working very hard to keep it that way.

Like any successful commander in chief, Bush knows that putting the right person in the right place is the key to winning any war. This isn't just a matter of choosing business-friendly appointees for top positions. That's pretty much standard operating procedure for Republican administrations. What makes this administration different is the fact that it is filled with anti-regulatory zealots deep into its rank and file-and these bureaucrats, unlike James Watt, are politically savvy and come from the very industries they're charged with regulating. The result is an administration uniquely effective at implementing its ambitious pro-industry agenda-with a minimum of public notice.

Take the case of mountaintop-removal coal mining. As the name implies, this method-the predominant form of strip mining in much of Appalachia-involves blasting away entire mountaintops to get at coal seams below and dumping the resulting rubble, called "spoil," into adjacent valleys. In some cases, valleys two miles long have been completely filled with spoil. Opponents had hoped that a court-ordered Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) would crack down on the practice, which has buried at least 1,000 miles of Appalachian streams and destroyed tens of thousands of acres of woodland that the EPA describes as "unique in the world" for their biological diversity. But when the Bush administration released the EIS this spring, it not only gave mountaintop removal a clean bill of health; it also relaxed what few meaningful environmental protections existed and focused on how to help mining companies obtain permits more easily.

So how did a process mandated by a federal judge "to minimize, to the maximum extent practicable, the adverse environmental effects" from mountaintop removal become a vehicle for industry? Two words: Steven Griles. Never heard of him? You're not supposed to. Steven Griles is one of industry's moles within the Bush administration. Before coming to work as deputy secretary of the Interior, Griles was one of the most powerful lobbyists in Washington, with a long list of energy-industry clients, including the National Mining Association and several of the country's largest coal companies. On August 1, 2001, Griles signed a "statement of disqualification," promising to stay clear of issues involving his former clients. Despite that promise, according to his own appointment calendar (obtained by environmental groups through the Freedom of Information Act), Griles met repeatedly with coal companies while the administration worked on the mountaintop-removal issue. Griles has denied discussing the "fill rule" in any of those meetings. But on August 4, 2001-three days after signing his recusal letter-he gave a speech before the West Virginia Coal Association, reassuring members that "we will fix the federal rules very soon on water and spoil placement." Two months later, Griles sent a letter to the EPA and other agencies drafting the EIS, complaining that they were not doing enough to safeguard the future of mountaintop removal and instructing them to "focus on centralizing and streamlining coal mine permitting." Griles is now the subject of an Interior Department investigation for possible ethics violations.

With key positions in the hands of industry veterans, the administration has been able to pursue one of its most effective stealth tactics -- steering clear of legislative battles and working instead within the difficult-to-understand, yawn-producing realm of agency regulations. It's a strategy that has served Bush well, especially in his push to give the energy industry-which donated $2.8 million to the 2000 Bush campaign-access to some of the nation's last wildlands. In Congress, where the administration's agenda must endure full public scrutiny, Bush's effort to allow drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge has failed repeatedly. But there was little public debate over a plan to drill 66,000 coalbed methane gas wells in the Powder River Basin of Wyoming and Montana-a massive project that will result in 26,000 miles of new roads, 48,000 miles of new pipelines, and discharges of 2 trillion gallons of contaminated water, disfiguring for years the rolling hills of that landscape. That plan was hatched behind closed doors, by the secretive energy task force headed by Vice President Dick Cheney.

The Cheney task force is behind another of the administration's pet projects-protecting utilities from having to comply with a law enacted 26 years ago. Some 30,000 Americans die each year because the federal government is unwilling to take meaningful steps to enforce the Clean Air Act's standards for coal-fired power plants. Nearly 6,000 of those deaths are attributable to plants owned by a mere eight companies, according to a study by ABT Associates, which frequently conducts assessments for the EPA. (The companies are American Electric Power, Cinergy, Duke, Dynegy, FirstEnergy, SIGECO, Southern Company, and the Tennessee Valley Authority.)

Global Warming

and natural cycles of Nature.

 

WASHINGTON (AP) -- There's growing worry about global warming, but how much of it is the work of that power plant just outside town? And if Congress limits heat-trapping greenhouse gases, will it affect utility and electric bills? And who's the biggest corporate culprit when it comes to climate change?

Answers to these questions may be only a couple of computer clicks away.

A new interactive online database unveiled Wednesday provides maps, color-coded categories and detailed information about who is putting 10 billion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere annually from power plants around the world -- about a fourth of it from the United States.

The Web site, which includes information from 4,000 utilities and 50,000 plants, shows not only the biggest CO2 emitters, but also the facilities and companies that are most green, releasing little if any carbon.

"We're trying to provide complete, balanced information. It's an open site," said David Wheeler, a senior researcher at the Center for Global Development, where he directed the creation of the massive database.

Using an array of information filters, a user can find out how much CO2 comes from electricity plants in a particular city or county, in a congressional district, from a specific company, or an individual plant.

Dubbed the Carbon Monitoring for Action database, or CARMA (www.carma.org), it proclaims itself as "the world's best place for power-plant voyeurism."

And there is a bundle of interesting information.

Australians produce 11 tons of CO2 for each of its people from their power plants -- the highest anywhere -- compared to 9 tons per person in the United States and 2 tons per person in China. Look at the top carbon emitters in the U.S. »

But the United States has the most CO2 emissions (2.79 billion tons), followed by China (2.66 billion tons). China, which soon is expected to pass the United States, is home to three of the world's five most CO2-polluting utilities.

China's Huaneng Power International leads all of the world's power companies, releasing nearly 292 million tons of CO2 annually. That's far more than Southern Co. and American Electric Power, the two biggest U.S. carbon emitters that each account for about 170 million tons a year, ranking sixth and seventh in the world.

Such information provides a "a vivid illustration that rich countries and developing countries must work together to overcome the challenge of climate change," said Wheeler, an expert on environmental economics.

Wheeler said in an interview that the interactive database should be of interest not only to individual citizens, but also to investors, insurers and corporate executives as Congress moves closer to imposing limits on carbon emissions to address global warming.

"Never before has this kind of detailed information been made available on a global scale," said Nancy Birdsall, president of the Center for Global Development, a think tank that examines how rich nations interact with developing countries.

While the federal government keeps annual statistics on U.S. CO2 emissions, CARMA seeks to provide its Web site visitors more complete, worldwide data by expanding on the government's numbers through independent research and extrapolations based on fuel use and electricity production.

The database also strives to be consumer friendly.

With a click of the computer mouse, one can see a map showing the top CO2 producers in the world and then move in closer to find information about the individual utility bringing electricity into your home.

Each emitter has a color code from green (the cleanest) to blue, yellow, orange and finally red (most polluting). The icons become larger the more CO2 a plant or company produces. A large red icon shows a plant producing a lot of electricity and a lot of carbon. A green one shows little if any carbon, often a nuclear power plant.

Click on American Electric Power, the Ohio-based utility that owns 25 coal-burning power plants, and one sees a large red icon. It is the country's second largest emitter of CO2 at 169,000 tons a year. Southern Co., based in Atlanta, releases a little more CO2, but its code is a mix of red and orange because of its use of nuclear energy along with CO2-producing coal. Duke Energy, 12th on the list of worldwide CO2 emitters, nevertheless gets an orange icon, also reflecting its ownership of nuclear power plants.

But of most interest to consumers may be the "digging deeper" option that displays CO2 emissions by plants or companies in a region, state, congressional district, town or by ZIP code. The Ohio Valley, the Southeast and Texas rank high in CO2 emissions, reflecting heavy fossil fuel use, while the West Coast, where nuclear and hydroelectric power are in heavy use, has comparatively little CO2 pollution from power plants.

 

 

 

 

  Because of Global Warming

We absolutely must start

building Disaster Shelters

 

 that are fully stocked   with  

Medicine , beds,

blankets, food, generators, arms, clothing, etc.

all for  Survival   for the minimum of 90 Days of survival and into the 21st century.

 

 

 

 

Disaster relief that actually works the best because we may need to rebuild certain cities or counties from disasters.

 

 We can create within 7 years to prepare for all the global warming events that we see today and many more to come in the very near future.

 

 

Be Prepared is the motto of the Boy & Girl Scouts and this is good common sense and logic instead of waiting until a disaster strikes.

NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana (CNN) -- Almost every day Erick Ventura wakes up, he thinks about leaving.

For the past year, Ventura, 38, and his wife Trisha, 34, have been living in a cramped FEMA trailer, parked outside of their Lakeview home just a few hundred feet away from the 17th Street Canal.

Before Katrina or "pre-K" as the locals say, Ventura worked in real estate and owned several rental properties. But all of that changed when the levees broke. Storm surge from Lake Pontchartrain inundated their house with 7.5 feet of water. The couple were displaced, and to make ends meet Ventura took a temporary job as a loss verifier for the Small Business Administration. His wife continued her studies in occupational therapy.

Ventura, like many others, feels like New Orleans has been forgotten.

"America really doesn't give a s*** about New Orleans. We forget. The bridge that collapsed [in Minnesota] -- it's gone, it's yesterday's news. The miners -- if they're not digging a sixth hole, we forget about them. We as a society, we really don't give a damn," Ventura said.

Two years after Hurricane Katrina, thousands of people in south Louisiana and along the Mississippi Gulf Coast are still struggling to rebuild their lives. Recovery from such a catastrophic event is slow and complex. Though the population and economy in the region's two largest cities of Biloxi and New Orleans continue to grow, serious issues persist. See comparison between the two cities »

Katrina's floodwaters battered the Crescent City's already fragile infrastructure, crippling public schools, hospitals and other basic services. Violent crime is soaring and increased insurance costs and a housing shortage are making the city less affordable. Along the Mississippi coast, increased labor and insurance costs are hindering the rebuilding.

White House recovery czar Don Powell says $96 billion of the $114 billion committed to the region has already been disbursed or made available to local governments. Powell implied that local leaders, particularly in Louisiana where recovery has been slower, were to blame if the money had not made it to citizens, according to The Associated Press.

A new CNN/Opinion Research poll found that a majority of Americans are pessimistic about the city's ability to fully recover from Hurricane Katrina. In the poll of 1,029 adults in early August, 55 percent said they believe the city will never completely recover. A slight majority, 52 percent, said the federal government has not done enough to rebuild those areas devastated by the storm.

Last week, New Orleans Mayor C. Ray Nagin told CNN that partisan politics are partly to blame for the sluggish recovery. "We're tied up in between whether this is going to be a red state or a blue state. You have a Democratic governor and a Republican president and there is all sorts of tension there and it's slowed things down tremendously." Watch CNN's interview with Mayor Nagin

Security of our Borders

 Now

   is an absolute must do.

 

This is "One of the TOP 10 " things we must do immediately (ASAP).

 

How can we say we are a Super Power and the USA and not be able to control our own borders?

Illegal Aliens.

 

 

 

Illegal immigration must be stopped because it is a security risk to our nation.

 

Yes we need less expensive labor for farm labor and other tasks we can farm out to,

 yet we also must maintain out standard of living in America to be healthy.

 

If we go backwards and personal family incomes continue to decline as we have had for twenty years, we as a nation will fall to third world status and join the poor countries like China and India.

 

 

All  illegal aliens  need to apply for immigration and " must Qualify for" Citizenship today if they want to remain in America.

 

Obviously we need everyone who is a good citizen in our country to be apart of our great society.

 

It all starts a with being a good honest Citizen.

 

And please all illegal aliens, do not ask for welfare and benefits,

 when you haven't even yet legally contributed and are not even a citizen today.

 

I do realize many illegal citizens do work very hard for a living in America today and we do need you, that is the truth, and we need your co-operation securing America and our borders.

 

You Immigrants are great and a blessing and you are what makes America Great, its is YOU our good immigrants!

 

 Fred on Border Security and Immigration Reform Plan

In the post-9/11 world, immigration is much more of a national security issue. A government that cannot secure its borders and determine who may enter and who may not, fails in a fundamental responsibility.  As we take steps to secure our borders and enforce our laws, we must also ensure that our immigration laws and policies advance our national interests in a variety of areas, and that the immigration process itself is as fair, efficient, and effective as possible.
 

 

Securing the Border and Enforcing the Law

A fundamental responsibility of the federal government is to secure the nation's borders and enforce the law. The following policies and initiatives will put the nation on a path to success:
 

1. No Amnesty. Do not provide legal status to illegal aliens. Amnesty undermines U.S. law and policy, rewards bad behavior, and is unfair to the millions of immigrants who follow the law and are awaiting legal entry into the United States. In some cases, those law-abiding and aspiring immigrants have been waiting for several years.
   
    
2. Attrition through Enforcement . Reduce the number of illegal aliens through increased enforcement against unauthorized alien workers and their employers. Without illegal employment opportunities available, fewer illegal aliens will attempt to enter the country, and many of those illegally in the country now likely will return home. Self-deportation can also be maximized by stepping up the enforcement levels of other existing immigration laws. This course of action offers a reasonable alternative to the false choices currently proposed to deal with the 12 million or more aliens already in the U.S. illegally: either arrest and deport them all, or give them all amnesty. Attrition through enforcement is a more reasonable and achievable solution, but this approach requires additional resources for enforcement and border security:
   
    
   1. Doubling ICE agents handling interior enforcement, increasing the Border Patrol to at least 25,000 agents, and increasing detention space to incarcerate illegal aliens we arrest rather than letting them go with a promise to show up later for legal proceedings against them.
      
       
   2. Adding resources for the Department of Justice to prosecute alien smugglers, people involved in trafficking in false identification documents, and previously deported felons.
      
       
   3. Maximizing efforts to prosecute and convict members of criminal alien gangs, such as MS-13 and affiliated gangs. These gangs have brought unusual levels of violence to more than 30 U.S. states and have also become very active in drug-smuggling, gun-smuggling, and alien-smuggling.
      
       
   4. Implementing fully and making greater use of the expedited removal process already allowed under federal law.
      
       
   5. Enabling the Social Security Administration to share relevant information with immigration and law enforcement personnel in a manner that will support effective interior enforcement efforts.
      
       
3. Enforce Existing Federal Laws. Enforce the laws Congress has already enacted to prevent illegal aliens from unlawfully benefiting from their presence in the country:
   
    
   1. End Sanctuary Cities by cutting off discretionary federal grant funds as appropriate to any community that, by law, ordinance, executive order, or other formal policy directs its public officials not to comply with the provisions of 8 USC 1373 and 8 USC 1644, which prohibit any state or local government from restricting in any way communications with the Department of Homeland Security "regarding the immigration status, lawful or unlawful, of an alien in the United States."
      
       
   2. Deny discretionary Federal education grants as appropriate to public universities that violate federal law by offering in-state tuition rates to illegal aliens without also offering identical benefits to United States citizens, regardless of whether or not they live in the state, as required by 8 USC 1623.
      
       
   3. Deny discretionary Federal grants as appropriate to states and local governments that violate federal law by offering public benefits to illegal aliens, as prohibited by 8 USC 1621(a).
      
       
4. Reduce the Jobs Incentive. Ensure employee verification by requiring that all U.S. employers use the Department of Homeland Security's electronic database (the E-Verify system) to confirm that a prospective employee is authorized to work in the U.S. Now that the technology is proven, provide sufficient resources to make the system as thorough, fast, accurate, and easy-to-use as possible.
   
    
5. Add to the Cost of Hiring Illegal Aliens. Deny a tax deduction to employers for the wages they pay to illegal aliens, thereby dramatically increasing the real cost of employing illegal aliens. Businesses that do not play by the rules should not be rewarded under our tax system.
   
    
6. Bolster Border Security. Finish building the 854-mile wall along the border by 2010 as required by 8 USC 1103. Extend the wall beyond that as appropriate and deploy new technologies and additional resources to enhance detection and rapid apprehension along our borders by 2012.
   
    
7. Increased Prosecution. Deploy the additional assets outlined above to prosecute alien smugglers ("coyotes"), alien gang members, previously deported felons, and aliens who have repeatedly violated our immigration laws much more vigorously.
   
    
8. Rigorous Entry/Exit Tracking. Complete the implementation of a system to track visa entrants and exits, as has been required by federal law for more than ten years, and connect it to the FBI's National Crime Information Center (NCIC), in order to curb visa overstays and permit more effective enforcement.
    

Improving the Legal Immigration Process
The United States is a nation of immigrants. We must continue to welcome immigrants and foreign workers who come to our country legally, giving priority to those who can advance the nation's interests and common good. Immigrants and foreign workers who play by the rules need to be rewarded with faster and less burdensome service, not delays that last years. Advancing the following initiatives will require close cooperation between all levels of government, the business community, and concerned citizens:

1. Maximize Program Efficiency. Reduce the backlogs and streamline the process for immigrants and employers who seek to follow the law. Also, simplify and expedite the application processes for temporary visas. This can be accomplished by hiring more personnel at Citizenship and Immigration Services and the FBI. Caps for any category of temporary work visa would be increased as appropriate, if it could be demonstrated that there are no Americans capable and willing to do the jobs.
   
    
2. Enhanced Reporting. Improve reporting to the government by businesses that rely on temporary workers so that the government can track whether the visa holder remains employed.
   
    
3. Modernize Immigration Law/Policy. Change the nature of our legal immigration system to welcome immigrants who can be economic contributors to our country, are willing to learn the English language, and want to assimilate.
   
    
   1. Reduce the scope of chain migration by giving family preference in the allocation of lawful permanent resident status only to spouses and minor children of U.S. citizens, and no one else (no siblings, no parents, no adult children, etc.).
      
       
   2. Eliminate the diversity visa lottery.

4. English As Official Language. Make English the official language of the United States to promote assimilation and legal immigrants' success, and require English proficiency in order for any foreign person to be granted lawful permanent resident status.
   
    
5. Freedom from Political Oppression. Preserve U.S. laws and policies to ensure that the United States remains a beacon and a haven for persons fleeing political oppression, while assuring appropriate admission standards are maintained.
   
    
6. Service to Country. Place those foreign persons who are lawfully present in the country and who serve honorably in the Armed Forces of the United States on a faster, surer track to U.S. citizenship.

Social Security.

 

We must protect Social Security for our senior citizens.

 

Most citizens over 65, 80% of our senior population depends on SS for survival today.

We should also create a new Social Security for our "new" younger contributors linked to secure Treasury Notes at 7% return on their investment.

Health Care System.

 

Very important: 

Health Care,

 and our health care insurance cost issues for all of us in this USA

 needs to be explored that fully fulfills everyone's health care needs, even the most poor, the disabled and even the illegal aliens.

 

 

It is defiantly Not good public policy to leave anyone out there without health care.

 

If the government can spend billions if not trillions on a war how can we justify not spending the funds for a government  health care system that meets the basic care for all.

 

 

Everyone in America needs to have at the least basic health care for themselves, family and for our country being Healthy.

 

We need to create an Educated Healthy Holistic Life Style Program,

 that will provide quality health care for all citizens in America,

for many generations.

We need to Educate the entire nation as to what is a truly healthy health care system.

This will be totally New to most citizens that believe they can stuff junk food down into their minds body and not suffer the consequences of obesity not only in themselves and now it is in their children. Dementia and the many cancers and diseases that so many citizens have manifested today are mostly the outer manifestation of gluttony of junk food, preservatives, and the lack of fresh quality healthy food.

 

And then they run to the doctor and say "fix me up doc, I am dying, help, I  ate .....and I am full of ???? !

 

Oh my, please operate on me, do anything you want, charge my insurance even if it does not work and the procedure is obsolete, drug me, fix me, what can I do I want to live another day on mystery meat baloney,

 I don't believe in all that health food stuff!

 

What?

You want me to drink Carrot, Celery, beet, and apple juice; that makes me sick?

And no I won't drink no wheat grass juice even if I have to die."</
