There is no hope for humans.....

Police clear Venice Beach after 70 young men start brawling on boardwalk - latimes.com

Seems there is no hope for our future.  Note the age group here:  14-17 years old.  Also note that the article politically correctly does not mention any race.  In this case it is a good thing, but do note that it may be "gang related." 

Sometimes it makes you wonder.  That's all.

Guns & People

OK. So.  Do guns kill people or do people kill people? 

Do you regulate guns or people? 

I believe you regulate people. 

What do you think?

Should Toyota's President Testify?

Do you think it is "right" or "justified" that the president of Toyota, Akio Toyoda, must testify before Congress?  I do not know all the details, but to me this seems a bit absurd.  I think Toyota was made aware of an issue.  They acted on this issue by recalling their vehicles to fix the issue.  To me they are acting as a responsible company by taking responsibility.  They should not be reprimanded for being responsible.  No wonder people are afraid to take responsibility.  If you do the right thing you get bashed for it.

Anyone have more detail on why this congressional hearing is taking place?  I need to spend some time looking into it.  My gut says it is not fair. 

Oh, Come on Chavez!

You are a corrupt dictator.  You are paranoid.  You are not good for the people of Venezuela.  The people of Venezuela deserve better.  They are good. 

All done venting.

Health Care Again

This time I want to address this health care thing again from a different angle. I want ask you some questions.

1. What do YOU want to see in national health care?
2. From what you read and hear and research, how close does the bill presented by your representatives come to your expectations?
3. How much or your hard earned money do you thing should go to the government to pay for someone else health care?
4. Do you feel you would rather pay for health insurance yourself or pay the government for it?
5. Is universal health care beneficial to society, and if so, how would you do it so it was not run by corrupt politicians?
6. Do you think health care would be better or worse if the government is involved?

The questions keep coming. I am curious on this. I am torn with the thought of a society with healthy people and we "all get along" similar to a Star Trek fantasy, but in reality, as we all do not get along is it even possible for a system like this working? Anyways, I guess I better start working so I can pay for my medical whether it's private or not!
