  •  And our representatives want to cut the US budget for the FDA? Oh wait, let's see, let's cut speding on programs such as the FDA, Medicare, but not to foreign aid! Mmmm. How is it that OUR government, by the people, for the people is so out of control.

• US: Medicare to hit financial woes sooner than expected

  Fri May 13, 2011
  •  This has been coming for years. Each administration has ignored the problem. It the government had invested the money we all put into the system and continuously loaned it out to other areas of the government, we would not be in this predicament.

  • Thank you! gohome, so easy to criticize! Have you been unemployed within the last year or so? It can be very depressing especially if you feel ashamed, even though you lost your job through no fault of your own.

• CBO: Private, public health plans compatible

  • It's really a shame that health care cannot be made affordable for all Americans. I would love to see how quick the congress and senate would act if they had to have the same, poor quality insurance as a lot of us have.

• What should the government do about the AIG bonuses?

  Tue Mar 17, 2009
  • since when do people get bonuses when a company is losing money? We need to let AIG file bankruptcy and reorganize. They are losing 1 billion per day!!!!! $30 billion per month. So, how long do we bail them out? Seriously! Hmmm, I've got an odd idea! Let's not give them anymore money.

  • Seriously! Give the guy a break. Let's see, he's been President for what 2 weeks?

• Should Roland Burris be seated as Illinois Senator?

  Tue Jan 6, 2009
  • I can't believe Burris was naive enough to honestly think the appointment would stick! Give me a break! The point is that the nomination by the governer is tainted! If this is such a big deal, let the people of IL decide. Let them vote on who should be the next senator.

• Do you have a mean boss or a nice one?

  Fri Aug 1, 2008
  • I couldn't be blessed with a better boss if I tried. He never asks me to do anything that he wouldn't or hasn't done. He's fair and overly generous. I drive 64 miles daily to work and back and, get this, he pays me a gas allowance.
