Mexican Growers now in hugh demand.

Election Year Medicaid Medicare Inducement issues left open for November not openly discussed.Politics have gone from heated to man on fire thoughts. Also the Judicial dilemmas, since all are offically allowed to bear arms again, the big city Mayors are concerned about how the poor will be able to rearm themselves, and are looking for some type of financial relief from Federal State Medicaid programs to maintain their status quo.The higher courts face tough issues this term since making honest fraud legal, there agenda now turns toward making honest kickbacks and honest bribes equally as legal. This topic remains high as a shared issue by the medicaid medicare enrollment providers since they are looking to expand inducements past the complicated pregnancy stage. No more coupons for free fried chickens now it will be free bags of medical use stuff only,sign here.

The DOJ has serious concerns that if legalized marijuana in California for medical reasons could be used as a inducement or inticement to help secure new enrollments for the Federal State Medicare Medicaid programs.The State of California is concerned that if the Feds step up their effort in killing off the marijuana crops it could cause higher tax problems that effect Medicaid currently under consideration by the State 'marijuana tax control board'. Limo drivers cancel their planned Medicaid Cuts DC rally and leave for California to protect this years crop. Wow, don't think I would like to be in Politics for this years elections.

Govenor Schwarzenegger indicated that if the Tea Partys membership keeps holding their rallies at our Marijuana burning fields they will have to be taxed for their free use of inhalants, prior to having them bused back to Arizona. Senator Mccain wants the deportation of illegal Mexicans to stop immediatley claims their State needs Pot growers and insists California return his illegal landscapers at once. This could lead to Pot Wars since California insists that have the best wine and the best weed and the better growers brought in directly from Mexico.(not Arizona)

This obviously has touched a sore point with Tea Party activists who do seem to insist that all of America is with them. Or that it's going to be more true if they just yell more. Which strikes me as rather oblivious as Americans went to the ballots overwhelmingly in favor of Democrats in our government. And while Democrats have been the party of lower taxes for the middle-class, fiscal responsibility, environmentalism and tighter regulation for a long time running who can blame us? Do we need a round of tax cuts like Reagan gave us in 81? Unemployment skyrocketed. Taxes are not the only concern on people's plate. The Tea Party wants money, and ironically most will get bigger returns this year, the rest of us just want our economy back.

I don't recall anybody making this much of a fuss about the money President Bush was spending to fund two wars that we shouldn't have been involved in or the borrowing from China to fund them. Under this administration you more than likely received a tax cut unless your income is over $250, 000 and those Bush tax cuts for the wealthy have not yet expired. So why is everyone upset with President Obama now? I think it's the two Santa Claus theory or perhaps it's just because President Obama is black?

This article is so poorly written and thought out, it is unbelievable. THIS is journalism? Robert, you are a fool! NO AMERICAN TAXPAYER that I know is okay with how much they are being taxed! I am furious with the way this economy is being run, and I have no idea why you would take this stance. Furthermore, WHY would you say, " do we deserve to loose our land after all" Are you insane or just a bad writer? How did you even get a journalism job?

Wow Robert, you are twisting this poll to suit your agenda. Yes. Americans think they are paying the proper amount of taxes BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT THEM TO GO UP HIGHER!

This writer must have his head "where the sun don't shine". The Tea Party Movement is not so much complaining about current taxes, but the run-away spending and those that are going to be established in the future to pay for the Obama administration's spend-spend-spend mentality. Obama either has an agenda to bankrupt the United States or plans to tax-tax-tax in order to make up some of the huge deficit he is creating. Get this pretender to the presidency and his Socialist cronies out of Washington as soon as possible before this once great nation goes down the tube!!!

Big government is good? Lincoln was a carpetbagger?!?! TVB, you are correct, we are fukd, but more so than you explained. Our political rants no longer discuss politics. We cut each others throats to prove our selves right. Not in any of this have I seen upstanding citizens except for those who have been smacked aside by our own "leaders." We regurgitate what we are told, accepting what ever our "leaders" choose to tell us. If all we are is hate filled sheep, than please lead us to the slaughter finally and end our suffering! Our lives are being changed for the worse before our eyes, and for those who can actually see it, we are being set up for far worse. Americans are in danger of loosing America and humanity is in danger of loosing the Earth, and not by the hands of "global warming," by our very own hands! There are still those in this world who seek power and domination, and we do nothing to stop them... by our own hands. We would rather fight amongst our selves. We see corruption and laws being broken left and right. We see our "leaders" express contempt towards us. All we do is complain! They spin some sort of lie, which these days usually doesn't even make sense, and we just walk away mumbling to ourselves. We need to be United again! God help us... do we deserve to loose our land after all?

It's interesting that only those who largely supported and got obaby in office are the ones who are getting bailed and won't pay higher taxes. Barack "little Bush" Obama is in way over his head. A CIA leader who's a used car salesman and a commander in chief who's got even less INTEL experience. We're fukd.

Mr. Schlesinger,

I guess you are the most clueless individual on the planet. Please note the recent voting in California. Please note: California is a very liberal state, yet the voters there STILL shut down the "tax and spend" machine by a 2:1 margin.

Get off your leftist, socialist wagon and get a clue.

Turtle of NC 10:04AM May 22, 2009

Secede from the union in order to save it. We need to get back to the notion of state's rights. All of this mess was started by that carpetbagger Lincoln.
