gee, new to the legislative process, Rick? Then again, the case for the
$100,000,000 figure might be less than perfect, and we are talking about a
blogger, writing about a bill that hasn't hit the floor of the Senate yet,
so save your 'sheesh' for a bit.

Ross Perot covered this very well some years ago.....


Now, I am neither for nor against anyone's plan...I feel things would be
better served by just placing a 'cap' on the profits .. we ran a small town
little grocery store for years at 12% mark up...


Anyhow, when Ross was commenting about Health Care he said, NOT to implement
it nation wide...try it first!

The only problem is if this program doesn't work, now what...

Dave - I know i'm stomping into others' battlegrounds here, but Mark
knows the difference between "psychic" and "psychotic". the use of
"psychotic" was (is) one of his inside jokes and an intentional play on
or with words for humorous effect. it's also a running joke with mark,
as he's used it more than once, and soberly played. most of us know
this, but it apparently was new to you. anyway...thought you should know.

You're a liar.

I began my working career when I was ten - a daily and Sunday newspaper
route. I gave it up at age 14 to pick strawberries in early summer,
and shade grown tobacco in the high heat of summer. Try picking
tobacco, Wolfgang. Ain't much fun. At 16 I was hired at a supermarket
putting out stock. I worked there every day after school 3 - 9 and on
Saturdays from 9 - 3 pm for $0.75/hour. No football. No golf. No
basketball. Nada. I worked because I was poor. When I graduated from
HS at 18 I was at a loss as to what I wanted to do. I worked for Swift
and Co. in the office making $80/week. But it was clear that the only
promotion would be thru attrition. I went looking for a better job
each day on my lunch hour and every prospective employer questioned my
lack of military service. The draft was on and although the chance of
getting drafted was very small (this was in 1956), everyone I
interviewed with questioned it. College was out - good grades, but no
money, no desire.

So, off to the Navy - get it over with. But, surprise, suprise. I
loved what I was doing. I was very good at it as all the rewards and
decorations show. Against the will of the girl I was engaged to, I
shipped over as an E-5 about to become an E-6. I chose the Navy and
not the girl. (Still see her. She lives about an hour away from our
new home in Georgia. Lovely woman - always was, and always will be.)
So I spent 20 years in the Navy, underpayed and overworked, saw my
share of harm's way, and loved every minute of it. I retired in 1956
and went to work with Honeywell Electro-optics.

Loved Honeywell. I worked with infra-red detectors as a technician,
and then as an engineering aide. Two years later a head hunter got me
to interview at another electronics company. With a very nice raise
offered, I took the job and worked for 17 more years with laser fiber
optics. That is where I met Dr. Jo my future wife.

I retired again in 1992 at age 55 with a very nice buy-out and lots of
stock and stock options. Then followed more than ten years of
part-time work (two days a week) teaching cops high performance
driving. At $400/day, it kept me in fishing money. I finally retired
at that when I was 69 - the days were too long and the Gs too much.

So, I remained employed from age 12 to age 69, or for 57 of my 72
years, or put another way, 79% of my life.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get a Navy retirement, but surely you don't
begrudge me that stipend. And yes, I started to draw SS at age 65, but
again, it is a stipend and I did work and pay all those many years.
But most important, Wolfgang, I give back to my country for everything
it did for me. I am very generous with my time, talents, and
treasures, far more so than you will ever be. And, once again, you are
a liar.

So, what the fuck IS your problem? If it get in your craw that badly,
I will continue to do it. Ain't life grand, Wolfgang? d;o)

Dave (generous senior citizen who just happens to be retired three
times with three incomes)

PS: I picked up all the edumacation I would ever need by OJT and a
couple of years of college courses. But most importantly, I am not a
pedant like you and your hillbilly butt boy.

In the penitentiary, in Atlanta, I knew an old man
(69......coincidence is the great fundamental driving principle of the
universe) who had been incarcerated for nearly all of his life, for
one crime or another, from about age 12. In all that time he had been
required to perform some inconsequential menial task or other in order
to obtain some small privileges and income. Roughly 79% of his life
(I'm content to rely on your math.......idiot that you are.....it's
bound to be better than stevie's).

I don't begrudge you anything, imbecile. There's only one person in
this newsgroup (and in this particular exchange) who routinely
excoriates and vilifies American military veterans......and it ain't
me.

Well, just at the moment my Britta water filter has a sticky flappy

Ahhhh, so that's what's in your craw. Unnecessarily so, I might add.
I think that Max Cleland is a hero. His service in Vietnam show his
heroism. He truly earned all of his medals, and paid a high price
because of someone's mistake. However, he did not earn the Purple
Heart. As horrific as his wounds were, they were not caused by the
enemy. Therefore his listing of the PH and wearing it was wrong. It
was wrong when he did it and it is still wrong. You do not wear
awards/medals you have not earned. It is a no-no, and Cleland knows
that.

John Kerry remains a phony. Sorry, but anyone that goes to the Paris
peace talks and sides with the enemy is not my hero. And, anyone with
an income of $300,000.00 + a year who gives but $300 to charity is
still not my hero.
