		<description>1. use fed money to help create jobs.

2. expand university educational possibilities, with a one year service requirement for all people age 19-26.  service can be in a number of areas, including the military but not limited too that area, environmental cleanup, helping elderly, parks, hospital help, teaching, daycare, whatever is needed.  in exchange, for each year of service the person earns grants toward two years of state or community college tuition, and some sort of health coverage.  people over the age could enroll as well.  

3.  the Afghanistan plan as laid out by Obama. 

4. lower taxes on people making less than 200,000 raise on those making over 200,000.</description>

		<description>67. I&#039;m pretty sure race/gender/cultural scholarships are privately endowed.  People are free to do as they will with their own money, including establishing scholarships and prizes that only some people are allowed to apply for.</description>

		<description>52. You fail nuclear physics forever.  The ecosystem around Chernobyl is just fine.  Besides that, breaching a nuclear reactor would be extremely difficult if you were trying to, and is for all intents and purposes impossible to cause by accident.</description>

		<description>MA degrees wouldn&#039;t change the status quo nearly as much as MS and MSE degrees would.  School districts could take a page out of the military&#039;s playbook.  Free education or a signing bonus sufficient to pay off your student loans in exchange for five years service.  That will get a lot of people with math, science and engineering degrees to spend a few years teaching before going into industry, thereby greatly increasing the quality of education while limiting costs in the long run.</description>

		<description>#56 Jack be Nimble - Ridiculous suggestions.

1)  This would only expand the IRS bureaucracy.  It wouldn&#039;t help the economy.  It just changes whence come the taxes.  Everything would cost more, and the corporations would make less sales and profits.  It&#039;s left-pocket/right-pocket thinking.  Cutting the corporate rates would increase productivity AND increase the tax revenues, without increasing our costs of living.

  Forget the pollution.  Our emissions are now a small fraction of what they once were.  We have reached the point of diminishing returns.  Weenie &quot;green cars&quot; do not sell well.  Give me a muscle car any day.  More car sales means more jobs and a vibrant economy.  &quot;Green&quot; means a diminished economy, every time.

2) Do you want your 15-yr-old daughter going to school with loser 25-yr-old men?  Really?

#67 JMD - Clearly, you and the other white male were the minority in that class.  That would ahve been a good thing to point out.

  Putting their names on stadiums is not vanity.  It&#039;s advertising.  Signs are all over.  The announcers are required to say those names whenever they mention the stadium.

  Stadiums cannot afford to not sell the naming rights, because stadium revenues apply to one&#039;s ability to pay players above the salary cap.  The salary cap = salary cap + stadium revenues.  Better stadium revenues means a better team (theoretically).</description>

One more to add.  Put to bed the global warming farce.  

The use of CO2 as a &quot;bad&quot; guy in the &quot;global warming lie&quot; was a give away that it was not science but politics of the left and was a move by the socialist/communist left to use the PC, AA ignorance of US citizens. This AA, PC ignorance allows the cynical creation of the global warming idea to create methods of control over the US economy.  This is being accomplished  by the ignorant, communist/socialist elite of the world using dumb tools like Algore that is just now beginning to unravel.  

The global warming farce of course is supported by the &quot;Elite&quot; of American Universities who are good at milking the federal funds. And who for the most part are not scientists but politically motivated AA, PC, educated.  Most of the US MSM think they are enlightened &quot;scientists&quot; instead they are ignorant psychotics.

Examples of this PC, AA ignorance  are like the BHO&#039;s and a whole generation that really know little about anything due to AA, and PC that now occupies most of their education.

They are dumbed down and jacked up psychology, and have developed into perfect Alligator mouths and butterfly asses.  

The politically motivated ignorant scientist looking for &quot;cash&quot; following the idiots and lead goats like Algore who did not understand that the &quot;picking of CO2&quot; would eventually be their downfall.

The CO2 &quot;life cycle&quot; is very understood in real science and there is no doubt that CO2 levels would/could have been much higher in primitive America going back just to the days of the buffalo  than they are now. 

Historical facts can easily lead to this conclusion. For example

Take the great plains area, the prairie&#039;s, from the gulf of Mexico to the interior of Canada.  The prairie grasses evolved with fire.  They need fire to even develop and grow as needed for many well understood reasons.  

Don&#039;t look to Harvard idiots for this kind of knowledge look to a K-State, agronomist with a BS degree born in Kansas.  

At any one time there would have been prairie fires that could easily have covered areas the size of Kansas with a single fire burn. Started by lightening and a demonstration of the wonder of nature, where nothing goes to waste.  

When lightening struck if it hit built up dry grasses that needed a burn it burned.  If it hit green new grasses that had been previously burned and now rejuvenated it did not burn. 

The same would be true for our forests.  They evolved with fire.  Fire kept the parasitic bugs down and put minerals back into the soil and CO2 back into the air to be used by the plants as needed.  

Natures Combustion, better known today as Nasty dirty combustion   produces CO2 and water.  Fire then was and is the primary recycling mechanism of nature. &quot;Combustion&quot;  When the Prairies burned the CO2 went into the air, the minerals in the grasses went efficiently back into the soil to build the most productive land in the world.  

The CO2 released provided the essential plant food taken in by the grasses and trees.  The same cycle was true for the Trees.  

The CO2 of course was also absorbed by the oceans and used by plant algae in the oceans.  The plants using CO2 as food then created oxygen, O2.  CO2 also went into solution in the oceans and eventually ended up as the building blocks of coral reefs and now limestone now covers a good part of the world. An indication of just how much &quot;CO2&quot; exists in the world in reserve and how excess CO2 is stored.

Without this CO2 cycle nothing would exist on earth.  Algore wants to use his ignorance, the ignorance of the PC, AA BS artists generated by our Union lead subversive school systems to destroy America and if carried to its logical end by getting rid of CO2 would destroy the world.  

So much for the &quot;smart&quot; guys.  The US and its current world of the BHO&#039;s is being lead by idiots and BS artists including and especially BHO.  A community organizer who can only show people how to grab theirs legally or illegally.  You cannot build or revive a nation on this kind of fluff.  

Nothing has been earned it has been given and this is what we get for AA and PC.</description>

		<description>Just as from your recent NR piece, Doc H (not to be confused with Doc Halladay - writing from Toronto), constructive solutions, and levers to shift the behaviours and results in line with what caused the eventual greatness of the USA.  It&#039;s the compoundig effect that&#039;s lost through the shrill or bellowing ignorance of &quot;me now&quot; attitudes, the bullhorn at the fingertips of so many.  That being the keyboard and $40 per month for intenet service.

I wonder how much this voice of reason initiated by such refreshing thoughtfulness, that can only be expressed by one with decades of intellectual pursuit and practical training, distilled through experience, application, and a lot of writing, is heard?

Some of this is resonating in my opinion (or hope).  And some will be heard by the desparate who have failed or been failed.  It&#039;s not often we learn the easy way, but hopefully there will be a catalyst with minimal consequences to shift the debate to take up constructive solutions and act on them.</description>

		<description>I received this in a recent Email.   I just thought I&#039;d pass it on.   Please enjoy!


THIS IS YOUR  PRESIDENT 


 FORWARD TO ALL YOU CAN 
Everyone of voting age should read these two books.. Don&#039;t buy them, get them from the library before they are removed from the shelves. 


From Dreams of My Father:  &#039;I ceased to advertise my mother&#039;s race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites.&#039; 



From Dreams of My Father :  &#039;I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother&#039;s race.&#039; 
  
From Dreams of My Father:  &#039;There was something about her that made me wary, a little too sure of herself, maybe and white. 
  
From Dreams of My Father:  &#039;It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.&#039; 
  
  
From Dreams of My Father:  &#039;I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn&#039;t speak to my own. It was into my father&#039;s image, the black man, son of Africa, that I&#039;d packed all the attributes I sought in myself: the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.&#039; 
  
And FINALLY, and most scary! 
  
From Audacity of Hope: &#039;I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.&#039;</description>
