Dunno. Still waiting for them to try the same hiring laws and social-security program as they mandated for the rest of us.
.
Seems they assured a bumpy ride for this health-care plan when instead of only being a new welfare program for the folks who are not happy without coverage, it also became a restructuring/intrusion into the coverage of people who are happy with what they do have now. They figured out how to annoy more people than they please.
@manaen
Ha! Re 16.
Ummm. You can't change a system w/o affecting members who benefit from it.
I often think about that when I see shiny Black people in NY or DC. How can I have a conversation w/ them about capitlism when it is TOTALLY working for them?
It is easier, of course to have a convo about it with someome, who the system isn't working for.
It funny, When I saw that they were bailing out the banks, I kept saying, Nationalize health care, and now they are, and look at it. I should have asked for incluisive, comprehensive. No?
3. Why am I just now watching the Chappelle show?
*Gasp*
1. feelin good homie.
6. *sigh* i ask myself this question every day.
10. for me, it's because i drop a whole lotta $$ on rent every month so i'm getting my money's worth.
11. i hope you do. i'm growing basil and mint right now and it's been lovely.
14. i don't know but i hope it's for a while. lately whole foods has been less crowded and having more sales, so i can now shop there in peace.
15. depends on which hood you're talkin about. depends on whether or not people believe/understand it's beneficial to all.
17. were you walking down franklin ave?
19. this one. ill doctrine. fresh selects.
20. i made a quinoa, red grape, orange and cashew salad. but that wasn't really cooking. too hot for cooking.
Post secret consistently makes me roll my eyes because some of that mess is just too BEYOND to be even possibly true. I hope.

Anger masks so much, so when it goes something inadvertently fills the void. Hopefully something will take vulnerability?s place.
