    Healthcare 2011: "In 2011 employees of big companies will pay significantly higher premiums, deductibles and co-payments, and be charged more to cover spouses."

    Americans' Buffet Mentality:
    "We paid at the door to the health-care feast, so let's consume all we can."

    "Efficient market theory dominated economic thinking from the days of Ronald Reagan to the collapse of 2008. It was the rationale for deregulation, the cause of a massive transfer of wealth and income from the middle class to a tiny number of the very rich. Now it is dead and gone but Republican politicians won’t let go, and many in the media show no understanding of the issue."

Local Photos Of Hurricane Ike’s Damage In Bridge City & Orange Texas

September 14, 2008

Although this post is very much out of context with my blog, I thought I’d share this web site with you so you could see what the national news media is not showing you now. Thanks to Gary at KOGT Radio in Orange Texas for these pictures. Just so you know, Gary always rides out hurricanes in Orange so he can report the real time situation to those that had to evacuate. 

This is the home page of KOGT Radio.

This is the link to the photo of hurricane Ike damage that Gary took yesterday. The city of Bridge City is completely under water and most of the city of Orange Texas is also.

    My cousin lived in one of the trailer parks by sonic in bridge city. I don’t know if he is alive or dead. His name is Timothy Pochiba. If anyone has any information about him, please email me at awhelan96@yahoo.com. I’m so worried about him.
