2009-01-08 - The 5000 Year Leap: A Miracle That Changed the World
This book should be a college course that every student should be required to take prior to graduation.
2008-12-21 - We the People
The Constitution is about us and our liberties, not the government, the corporations, or the lobbyists.
2008-12-20 - Constitution by a Thread
Every self proclaimed American from first grade to the age of 100 needs to read this book. I majored in Constitutional issues in college and none of the material described in this book was ever taught. America was founded on Judeao-Christian beliefs and this book emphasis what you weren't taught in American schools.
2008-12-19 - I love this book
When I realized that my public school education created an ignorant citizen (me), I decided to start reading and studying the constitution. This was the book I read after the "Federalist Papers". It is wonderful in explaining the principals behind what is in the constitution. Everything is so clear now- it's not a big mystery that the powers that be try to make it out to be. It is clear, and easy to read and even questions the 17th Amendment. I think it's important to know what's in the constitution, why it's there, what are the amendments, and how the powers that be have helped us stay ignorant so we don't fix things. But with this book, we know what the original intent was. It also doesn't matter if you are Republican, Democrat, or 3rd party. The info is principals that EVERYONE understands and can agree on. How many books out there are like that?! If you only read one book this year, it's this one.
2008-12-12 - It is time for a miracle
Our country is in for a serious Depression, a real financial funk.
I hope the US Senate allocated funds in TARF for Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp, (PBGC), Medicaid and health insurers. If GM and Chrysler go Bankrupt, PBGC must pay pensions which is around 780 billion dollars.
PBGC does not provide Health and Welfare payment- health insurance. Do you have money set aside for those entities? That collapse will be around 780 billion by itself. That does not include unemployment for the auto and their suppliers which may be another 800 billion dollars.
The US senate would rather spend 1.5 trillion dollars in additional bailouts rather than fund a bridge loan for 40 million dollars. Wow, As a UM trained economist I am appalled at our Senate Leaders lack of expertise in basic economics. Our country is in for a serious Depression, a real financial funk.
You need to read, Breakin' Out of Your Financial Funk! If the Auto companies go into bankruptcy employees will need this book as we are certainly going to be in a serious financial funk and everyone will need a book to help them pick up the pieces and start again. Or hold onto the pieces. It is a short miraculous read.
