my two cents is: more should be done about creating jobs revolving around the principles of reuse/recycling/renewable resources. There are many things that could be done to improve the state of the economy/environment ~ like investing in industry Carbon Algae Recyling Systems for manmade algae ponds to harness CO2~ production of solar panels/wind ... See Moreturbines etc. ~ creation and implementation of carbon collection units for domestic use. I think we should embrace this opportunity as creators, innovators, inventors. Nothing is truly out of reach!

also, take a page out of MONTREAL's book!!~ be open minded ,,,
"Saint-Michel Environmental Complex and the focus of the most extensive environmental rehabilitation project ever undertaken by the City."

short blog Canadians tap algae to clean Alberta oil sands

"the algae could be used to produce biofuels and a number of other products as they suck up CO2 and clean up other chemicals."

Rationing is on the way. How else can cost be controlled in a government run system? We now know how the left will govern this Country. Hopefully things will change next November.

Rationing is here right now--ask those on a "government run" health plan how they like it---surveys show they are WAYYY more satisfied than those of us on private plans that exist now--how can cost be controlled? by acting like a business unlike what the RIGHT did when they passed a law forbidding government entities from negotiating drug prices by buying in bulk just like private plans do--yes, let us hope the left will govern differently

Try to get "experimental" treatments today from the insurance companies. Practices that have been in place for years are still considered too new or too risky for most insurance companies. There has been rationing on a MAJOR scale for years...has no one noticed? People denied treatment because of "existing conditions" or policies dropped when a specific disease becomes too expensive for an insurance company...then the dropped person can't get covered by other companies either.

Political correctness will bring down this country. A Muslim hears jihad is OK, in particular killing is sanctioned and kills soldiers and wounds 30 or 40 more and it seems inappropriate to call that terrorism. Lieberman got it right. Hasan is a homegrown terrorist.

Does anyone really care what conservatives think? Elections have consequences...
