Elizabeth Edwards

In this article the author goes on to talk about healthcare and the different plans that would cover the people of America. The author believes that Clinton's way of handling the healthcare situation is far better then the way Obama's way. I personally can not say since i do not know the full extend of Clinton's plan. As being who I am I do not care for any other the healthcare plans. I see these plans to be a way of spending billions of dollars that our country does not have to spend. We can not spend more money then what we have, that is how people go into debt. If I bought a house with money I did not have how would I pay for those house payments? I would not be able too so therefore I would loose the house, since the bank would take it! Yes I would also love to live in a world where money fills pockets out of thin air and everyone is able to have government funded healthcare, but this is not Wonderland this is the real world and things to not work that way. I also do not want to the government telling me if I am allowed to get a certain procedure done or not. I believe that I should be the one who decides what I am able to receive not some lazy unorganized old man who is trying to save a few bucks in the governments pocket.

The Real Scandal of AIG

This article goes on to talk about how AIG got a government bailout. With that bailout it saved thousands of job within that company. Some of those people who had their jobs saved were successful CEOs and other higher up positions. These business men believe that they have a right to get their bonus for this year. And the money where that bonus comes from is inside our own pockets.

These business men are so selfish and big headed that they are going to ask for more money on top of the money they had gotten in the bailout. These people should be happy that they still have a job, since they were the lucky few who did not get "laid off." I am more then sure that some of those men and women who lost their jobs would be more then willing to be in the same position as AIG. If these people were in this position i bet they would not ask for more money. But then again people are greedy and the more you have the more greedier you become.

Every person who is not a high up executive of some sort who works everyday to make sure there is food on the table has to pay money to these rich people. We are trying to keep money in our pockets while these people have their hands in there searching for more. Its always more and as people who live in a corrupt society we must pay, otherwise we will be locked up for not paying taxes.
