The ONLY way the U.S.A. will come back fully from this economic downturn is to IMMEDIATELY start SUPERTAXING imported products. I know, I know, I am as guilty as anyone else for buying cheap imported products. I will mention China, since it seems most of the cheapest stuff comes from China. If American-made products were …

I was an avid Diet Coke drinker for over 20 years. Everyone kept telling me that Nutrasweet/Phenylalanine was going to kill me or make me go crazy(er). I NEVER had any health issues from NutraSweet. One day, I decided to listen to people (the ONE time in my life!) and kick nutrasweet. After a couple …

I loved the smurfs back in the 80’s. Especially the cereal-Smurfberries! So when I heard they were making a computer-animated movie with the smurfs, I was elated. Then I saw the preview. GROSS! A public note to the movie houses: WE DO NOT WANT TO SEE COMPUTER ANIMATED CARTOONS MIXED WITH LIVE ACTION! This gross …

First, I have to say that even though you have some grant from the endowment of the arts doesn’t mean you have a good idea. This movie absolutely was horrible from beginning to (the not-soon-enough) end. The actors were terrible. The girl that walks off the cliff was made of gold or lead, she dropped …

(http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/91126) This brought back some great memories of getting the 11 free albums in the mail! (Remember, kids, you couldn’t always download music for free!) The interesting thing I learned in this article was that Columbia House …
Ok, I think I have finally figured out why men allow women to deceive them with make-up, hair, clothes, shoes, etc. and how women are actually the ones who keep the economy going… Hear me out. Not only do men fall for the masks that women use to attract men, but they encourage it. I …
Ok, I know I may step on a lot of toes here, but if you think about this, it WILL work. HEAVILY tax imported goods to make them cost more than domestic goods. This will force companies to manufacture more items here, which will lead to new industry, new jobs and growth in real estate …

I have been noticing that the searches I do on Bing come up with the exact… and I do mean EXACT same results as Yahoo. I know Microsoft wanted to buy them, but I think what they’re doing is trying to just phase them out. They are taking Yahoo’s search results and presenting them in …

Since most people who are running this company are old white men, I think it’s time for a change. They are always out of touch with where this country needs to go. They only represent their generation’s views. I think 35-45 should be the age range for any elected office. That way, there is more growth, more …
Despite what the entire United States is going through, there is actually some good coming from the economy going sour. -People moving in with family harkens back to a time when families did live together -Children are growing up without excessive “stuff” -People are having to upgrade/redefine/expand their skillsets -People who couldn’t afford housing are …
