World Economy Stabilizing, Says Krugman http://www.truthout.org/052609M Reuters: "The world economy has avoided 'utter catastrophe' and industrialized countries could register growth this year, Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman said on Monday. 'I will not be surprised to see world trade stabilize, world
industrial production stabilize and start to grow two months from now,' Krugman told a seminar."

As one would expect from Paul Krugman in a few words he sums up the situation and provides a comprehensive and literate analysis. California has been sliding into economic disaster for some times now and though as in Washington the blame can not all be placed on one party, the attitude of the obstructionist republicans is far from offering any solutions. I really don't think that as nation we can expect that a modest increase in taxation on those earning more than $250,000 is going to solve all the coming short falls, and with the needed spending to pull us out of the mess that Wall Street, banks and corporations in general brought to us, there will be more taxes. Let's just hope that the need for increased taxation comes later then sooner and we have the time to see a reversal in the current unemployment situation.

It would be far more helpful on the national level to see a tax reformation in the form of the Fair Tax, with increased revenue for the Feds, and decreased private taxes for the individual, and far less impact on the poor who are already over burdened just trying to exist.

Yep, the nation is heading for the same. The Greed of the Elite is coming to a head. The G20 Summit was all about our new currency. America has kissed it's freedom's adieu.

With all due respect, dips in the economy have always hit Cali harder and this is no exception. I lived there for thirty two years and have watched economic decisions that always lead to the bubble bursting.

The California Scare Campaign
- "Use of the word 'experts' is one of the great tells in journalism. It usually means something close to "those people I cherry-picked to agree with my thesis." It is an artificial and scientific-sounding
reputation-enhancer, one used in stark contrasts to the way that critics of said thesis will be portrayed in the same article."

Remember, NO COMPROMI$E ... EVERYONE IN and NO ONE LEFT OUT!!!

I just hope that Obama still feels the way he did when he said this:

"I happen to be a proponent of a single payer universal health care program." (applause) "I see no reason why the United States of America, the wealthiest country in the history of the world, spending 14 percent of its Gross National Product on health care cannot provide basic health insurance to everybody. And that's what Jim is talking about when he says everybody in, nobody out. A single payer health care plan, a universal health care plan. And that's what I'd like to see. But as all of you know, we may not get there immediately. Because first we have to take back the White House, we have to take back the Senate, and we have to take back the House."

Obama speaking to the Illinois AFL-CIO, June 30, 2003.

Because now that all those conditions that he mentioned in the last sentence have been met it is time to get the "single payer universal health care" he spoke about so passionately in the first sentence.

YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN!


Here's a video clip of Obama supporting universal health care in 2003:

Write to the President, every day to remind him that he promised us all health "care" not health in$urance:
