We can't keep thinking that fossil fuels are at the center of work which displaces people.  That is why unemployment is linked to ecological destruction 

"Energy Slaves"
At the end of it we are all eaters so we need to care about our food.  We could be growing our food and get rid of these problems.  


Renew your life and renew nature.be a part of food whether it is driving walmart truck or growing it in your yard.

This was taken by Robert McEldowney in San Francisico in the 50's.  I don't know if he ever saw the Elephant sucking the sear or just the idea of a nice cliff.  He didn't say before he gave it to me.


this is a picture of a picture.  I have focused more the Elephant than the cliff in this shot.

RE: Health Care Law: Justice Solomayor didn't understand why 25 states wouldn't want this federal gift.

April 1, 2012


Reminds me of my ex husband that wanted to run up the credit cards and bankrupt while were married. 

It would have been gifts  received while I watched him implode.  

How could I receive this gift knowing that we were losing the house.  He did it alone.  
Anyhow, Federal government is my ex husband and I am the State. 
Less metaphoric

Who is using all our health care services?

April 1, 2012
  • Immigrant households’ use of welfare tends to be much higher than natives for food assistance programs and Medicaid. Their use of cash and housing programs tends to be similar to native households.

Why not say everyone has to exercise
 
 Justice Scalia To Donald Verrilli
  


My point:  If you don't buy insurance there is no consequence.   They are setting people up to break the law.  One more question on the application: Why didn't you buy the required health insurance?  We check box and get assistance.  Their claim is that most people will comply.  Punishing the good people who c...
