Man Builds Fairy Tale Home for His Family – For Only £3,000 | Gaia Health

Simon Dale is a family man in Wales, the western part of Great Britain. His interest in self-sustainability and an ecological awareness led him to dig out and build his own home—one of the loveliest, warmest, most inviting dwellings you could ever imagine. And it cost him only £3,000, about $4,700 American dollars!

Alabama immigration law set back again – USATODAY.com

MyTake : It’s embarrassing to me, as an American citizen, to know that we actually voted on, and legislated such laws. It’s barbaric, considering that our society had suffered through and (should have) learned from enslaving africans and the dismissal of native american sovereignty. We are witnessing the next embarrassing, somehow-excusable chapter in US...

Stockton Heinz Facility to Close, Leaving Many Without Jobs – KTXL

MyTake: Lynchpin employers like Heinz are the companies that could use bailout funds to recover during hard times, or stimulus grants to help adapt to the changing markets to remain competitive. Or even their related industries (in this case agriculture and perishable distribution) could use supportive legislation to encourage retailers and consumers to BUY...

Romney on middle ground – AP

MyTake: I COMPLETELY DISAGREE with the notion that corporate bailouts were necessary. You mean to tell me that all those sophisticated algorythms run by supercomputing systems, designed and managed by the best financial minds didn’t see a catastrophic disaster coming? If so, then why do we have them? I think the distribution of suffering...

The Sound of Silence

I spin this out to the news media outlets, who lack the courage to ask the real questions when reporting the US financial crisis. Passive slaves to their advertisers, they no longer speak up for the American people with the unbiased integrity and fortitude of their icons like Morrow and Cronkite.

Immigrants fearing deportation make plans for kids

MyTake: I think that anyone who thinks this story is just a pr fluff piece is just heartless. This is called a consequence of our actions. We’ve arbitrarily told them to “go back to where you came from” without any regard to where that is. For many immigrants, coming to America wasn’t a grand...
