 I like the sound of that title- It rings well in me ears. I got to wondering what the politicians really mean when they say “we are working hard to come up with a solution to these hard economic times” What is so hard about printing money? It’s one of the easiest things to do- I’m sure there are people who have rich parents and whenever they need money they say ” Daddy, can have another more couple thousand? ” the parents give it too them. Well, our wonderful, fantastical superiorly smarter than us Congress and Senate is asking the Fed Reserve ” Can I please have a few more trillion- don’t worry, we’ll pay you back soon- our good ‘ol constituents voted for us knowing how smart we are and that we’ll take care of them. We only need to increase taxes , mostly on the rich who already have too much anyways. And we’ll step up our collection efforts too with “random” audits. We know it will take generations to pay it back but we need the money now. The auto manufacturers are in trouble and we’re so smart that we know what will happen if they don’t get their money. We know for a fact that the only people who can possibly make cars are the Big 3. What would we do without Chryser? I remember my first Chrysler- oh, the memories. We’re so smart we know that all those people who are going to lose their homes are the victims and should be rewarded for their smart decisions to buy homes they knew they couldn’t afford. We’re so smart we know that when we overtax the people and businesses, that they’ll figure it out- they just need to work harder- like US.” Hard work, eh? I read an article last night in the Sept 2008 issue of Smithsonian. Here’s a link to the website version: http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/victory-at-sea.html It was an eye opener and worth a read. It’s largely about an area of the ocean being preserved and not fished and how the whole ecosystem is back to what it should be (or probably close). I was impressed by what one guy and small group achieved. It’s a good example of what we need to do- To me , the Ocean is too important to Life’s balance and people need to know what it use to be like- before we changed it! Sure we can use it, but a good analogy might be the farmer who rotates his crops so that the soil is still good every year (I’m no expert but I’m sure there is a proper way). Well, the same with the Ocean- there’s no reason we can’t stop overfishing and polluting it. I guess spending 100s of billions of dollars on 1,000 overseas military bases policing the world and giving billions to car manufacturers is more important. While we’re at it let’s print another trillion dollars or so in order that all of us can have Health Care. Why stop there? This money printing is getting real fun- I love it, I can’t stop. OOOOOBBBBBBAAAAAMMMMMAAAA- show me the MONEY!!!!! Lets’ earmark another Bill so we can print some more for the American Medical Association so they can do some more studies on “Embitterment Disorder”- I think it’s spreading real fast these days! Where can I get my hands on one of those Money Printing Machines? I must have missed it in Economics 101. Chuck  Spread cheer, let your employees/others know they are doing good when they are or just find something good to tell them! I’ve been joking recently with a friend of mine that I have Embitterment Disorder (believe it or not – the Psychiatric Association has added this to their lists of made-up disorders!- they sit around and vote on what should be a disorder, I’m not kidding) I heard this on the radio a few weeks ago and it was stated matter-of-factly by the radio personality that there was this new “disorder”. Had I been that announcer/newscaster I would have busted of laughing at it as some sort of joke- who do these people think we are? Stupid? Well, apparently so, because he didn’t laugh or express any sort of concern of how idiotic this was. But I laughed all the way home at how completely fricken retarded it was. But I have the sad thought at the same time that people are numb to this and don’t throw these “doctors” out of their “priestly” seats and tell them to find some other job more useful, like shoveling shit, because that’s what they’re trying to feed us! Anyways, I digressed a little, but my point was: that even though we all suffer from “Embitterment disorder” we should still make others feel wanted and find the good things in Life to Praise. Just telling someone “Thanks, I appreciate your help, or your work” improves his/her life. Be good to others and they will appreciate it- It’s good for EVERYONE. That’s today’s thoughts. Chuck This is an author’s post by Carl Watts:  No one wins the blame game. For example, you make a mistake or something goes wrong. So you blame someone or something. “I crashed the car because you played the radio too loud!” Blame is frequently used to explain poor job performance. “My boss is such a jerk, I can’t get my work done.” Blame is also used for personal problems. “I’m depressed because of the tragedies in the news.” Why You Can’t Win The Blame Game When you blame someone or something else, you actually Continue reading Who do you Blame? |
