Seems like some more traction on the subject of paying through the nose for shitty insurance while at the same time having costs increase 2-3 TIMES wage or inflation increases...not
egg or
gas prices, tho - those are outstripping almost everything these days

Been Off The Air Mostly Recently...
My surrogate employer has decided to re-formulate it's firewall and block all blogger (at 1st) and then just the components that allow you to log in - something about social networking or some such thing...anyways, couple that with one non-sleeping baby and you've got a toxic mix of no time nor opportunity to blog...so my blogging about Hillary outrage regarding her personal bimbo eruptions will have to slow down a bit...

Carter, Gore to endorse Obama, or ask Clinton to concede
A few things [bumped]
I dig
Obama. Loved
his speech on Wright and racial wrongs.
I feel like Hillary would make a
thoroughly capable president, in a political and organizational kind of way, but I feel that we need today the kind of inspirational president that we would have in
Obama to stimulate the
public's engagement in the coming years of
transformational projects.
I've been interested to see how much the people working on
Green Jobs initiatives entwine their
Green with so much of what they call
social justice and pathways out of poverty. They
lobby not only to create programs to put the skills needed to solve regional energy challenges into the hands of local workers, but to make sure that those would-be workers have the support they're going to need, given
their often troubled circumstances.
