Republican Congress create Anger and Donald Trump

One of the main reason for the anger and discontent in our society is, "people working harder and are taking home less than they did 15 years ago". Stagnant wages for the middle class while Corporations are a-wash in cash buying back stocks and paying executives enormous UN-conceivable wages.


Donald J Trump


Donald Trump says "Americans are paid too much", Donald Trump hire illegal's to work for him in his corporation, Donald Trump ships American jobs abroad at every chance he get, all Trump brand merchandise sold in stores and on the Internet are made in a foreign country by foreign workers and Donald Trump is now the presumptive Republican Party Nominee, there is conflict and or confusion here!. "Is there more to the anger out there or this perceived anger is a real farce perpetuated on the American people". The truth is this any anger that exist is the product of a "do nothing Republican Congress" who were prepared to stall or wreck the US economy because the could not get 100% of what they wanted.

Rep Eric Cantor
Republicans in congress made a mockery of their constituents and some Americans convincing them they could repeal the affordable care act by voting over fifty times for repeal when they know the President would veto the legislation, this was a game to them to get re-elected wrapped in Conservative principles which really meant protect the rich.
Rep John Boehner

That was not leadership hence two prominent Republican leaders became the ultimate victim of the stupidity, first Majority Leader Rep Eric Cantor lost his seat in 2014 election and recently Rep John Boehner resigned as speaker of the house after failing to convince his republican caucus that what they were doing was not governing and they would end up hurting the Republican Party. Now here is Donald Trump a Liberal taking over as Leader of the Conservative Republican Party duly elected by fiscal conservatives, social conservatives and every other conservative stripe bringing the end of conservatism in the United states of America.

"AFFORDABLE CARE ACT Changing the Game for Ordinary AMERICANS"

Affordable Care Act

To put things in proper perspective, some Political Representatives are afraid that the "affordable Care Act Obama Care" will work and make Americans healthy over time then insurance companies will no longer be able to exploit them raising rates at will while unable to drop people with pre-existing conditions.

Americans with the ACA or "Obama Care" will have a choice and no longer have to stay in dead end low paying Jobs like Walmart Stores and other employers who see their underpaid workers as their way to maintaining wealth.

Americans with aspirations and goals can now pursue then knowing that their health insurance will always be there for them and no longer threatened by a loss of employment, a peace of mind never enjoyed by American's before. Middle aged Americans with skills and Training who have been cut out of the Economy by technology and business consolidation and end up working at low paying Jobs like a Greeter at "Walmart Stores" for $8.75per hour to maintain, "Junk Health Insurance" now have a choice. By purchasing health Insurance through "Obama Care, the Affordable Care Act" these American's can now move on and pursue other dreams like starting their own new business taking risks and helping a always grateful Nation. .

Would you believe that this is what all this fuss is all about, "Americans having health Care no one can take away from them"? The Affordable Care Act is changing the Game for ordinary Americans putting them in the drivers seat and "Corporate America" is scared.

Trampoline

8 Pole Kids Trampoline Enclosure Set to Fit 10 Feet Trampoline Frames with set of 4 or 8 W-Shaped Legs (Trampoline Not Included) Click Here

The first modern Trampoline was built by George Nissen and Larry Griswold in 1936. Nissen was a gymnastics and diving competitor and Griswold was a tumbler on the gymnastics team, both at the University of Iowa, USA. They had observed trapeze artists using a tight net to add entertainment value to their performance and experimented by stretching a piece of canvas, in which they had inserted grommets along each side, to an angle iron frame by means of coiled springs. It was initially used to train tumblers but soon became popular in its own right. Nissen explained that the name came from the Spanish trampolĂ­n, meaning a diving board. George Nissen had heard the word on a demonstration tour in Mexico in the late 1930's and decided to use an anglicized form as the trademark for the apparatus.
In 1942, Griswold and Nissen created the Griswold-Nissen Trampoline & Tumbling Company, and began making trampolines commercially in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

Trampoline as Sport
The competitive gymnastic sport of trampolining has been part of the Olympic Games since 2000. On a modern competitive trampoline, a skilled athlete can bounce to a height of up to 10 meters (33 ft), performing multiple somersaults and twists. Trampolines also feature in the competitive sport of Slamball, a variant of basketball, and Toss a ball, a variant of volleyball.

Safe use of the Trampoline

Family-oriented commercial areas in North America such as shopping centers, carnivals, and so on, often include closed inflatable trampolines (CITs) as a children's attraction. These have safety nets on the sides to prevent injuries.
Using a Trampoline can be dangerous, and in organized clubs and gyms there are usually large safety end-decks with foam pads at each end and spotters placed alongside the trampoline to try to break the fall of any athlete who loses control and falls. The majority of injuries occur on privately owned home trampolines. Bouncing off a trampoline can result in a fall of 3–4 meters (10–13 ft) from the peak of a bounce to the ground or a fall into the suspension springs and frame.

Wall Street - Main Street and you.

'Main Street'


A colloquial term used to refer to individual investors, employees and the overall economy. "Main Street" is typically contrasted with "Wall Street." The latter refers to the financial markets, major financial institutions and big corporations, as well as the high-level employees, managers and executives of those firms. You'll often hear about Main Street vs. Wall Street in rhetoric about the differing goals, knowledge levels, interests and political power of these two groups. Some people think that what's good for one group is bad for the other. For example, high executive pay is seen to conflict with ordinary workers' pay and job security.



Wall street world financial center

"Wall Street"

The Wall Street capitalist economy is comprised of the institutions of big finance and the captive corporations that serve them. It is a world of pure finance and maximizing financial return is the name of the game. They may or may not contribute to the creation of useful goods and services, but these are more in the nature of incidental byproducts of their profit seeking.

The Wall Street economy, which is centrally planned and managed by a global syndicate of global corporations that hold a collective monopoly over the world's money, markets, and technology for the exclusive benefit of their managers and financiers, persistently violates market rules. It bears substantial resemblance to the central planning model of Soviet communism. By contrast, Main Street economies, are decentralized, self-organizing, and far more likely to function by market rules. Defining differences between Wall Street and Main Street are summarized in this table.

Backgammon Set

Deluxe Backgammon Set

Deluxe Wooden Chess Backgammon Set will entertain you for hours. This deluxe backgammon set features beautiful wood styling and inlaid playing surface. The board conveniently folds into a carrying case.

Backgammon is one of the oldest board games for two players. The playing pieces are moved according to the roll of dice, and players win by removing all of their pieces from the board. There are many variants of backgammon, most of which share common traits. Backgammon is a member of the tables family, one of the oldest classes of board games in the world.


Although luck is involved and factors into the outcome, strategy plays a more important role in the long run. With each roll of the dice, players must choose from numerous options for moving their checkers and anticipate possible counter-moves by the opponent. Players may raise the stakes during the game. There is an established repertoire of common tactics and occurrences.
Like chess, backgammon has been studied with great interest by computer scientists. Owing to this research, backgammon software has been developed capable of beating world-class human players.

Rules

Backgammon playing pieces are known variously as checkers, draughts, stones, men, counters, pawns, discs, pips, chips, or nips.
The objective is to remove (bear off) all of one's own checkers from the board before one's opponent can do the same. The checkers are scattered at first and may be blocked or hit by the opponent. As the playing time for each individual game is short, it is often played in matches, where victory is awarded to the first player to reach a certain number of points.

"United States has a big glut of crude oil sitting in the middle of the country"

Remove all regulations, give the Private sector what they want, government should get out of their way. Give the Private sector American Land, American waterways and American Territorial waters to let them drill! drill! drill!. The result an oversupply of American Produced Oil and rising Gasoline Prices!

Reuters
Right now, the United States has a big glut of crude oil sitting in the middle of the country, and no easy way to move it. The combination of surging production from Canada's tar sands and North Dakota's Bakken region has overwhelmed the existing pipelines to the Gulf of Mexico, where it would ordinarily be refined and shipped onto the global market. As a result, the price of American and Canadian crude oil is trading at a steep discount to varieties from elsewhere in the world. After all, with fewer potential customers, oil buyers can dictate friendlier prices. West Texas Intermediate, which is traditionally considered a benchmark variety of crude used to price other types, is selling for about $106 a barrel. But according to Oil Price Information Service analyst Tom Kloza, oil from North Dakota has recently been selling for around $83 a barrel. Canadian crude has been trading for even less. 


The United States is producing more oil right now than any other time in its history, The US oil and Gas consumption is at its lowest at any time in the past 10 years. There are millions of Barrels of Oil sitting all over the United States creating this surplus of Oil. Our refineries are running below capacity because the Oil companies refuse to bring these refineries up to maximum capacity. By the way these refineries were built in part by Tax Payers money on the very promise that if the government help to build these refineries the oil companies will be able to deliver gasoline cheaper.

There are many or all parts of this sinerio ordinary Americans like me seem not to be able to understand, it makes me feel stupid just to think that when we have lots of oil the price of gasoline goes up anyway. I used to think that if there is an over supply of a commodity  in the case of oil and there is less demand then price goes down. That used to be  Econ-101  and the way things are supposed to work in a normal free market society, as it currently is in the United States the beacon of free enterprise. But, there is nothing Normal about how things are in the US anymore, there is a place called Wall Street that the brightest people in the world work  and because of technology these people do not even have to be at wall Street to work there.
About $1.20 of  the cost of a gallon of gas is speculation.


Companies like Goldman Sacks according to Reuters, " Goldman Sachs is now urging investors to go long on American crude futures. In other words, the bank is telling it's customers to buy cheap while they still can". That means although America is producing more cheap oil than it ever has but the market is now and has been for some time controlled by speculators on wall street who through saber-rattling and corporate and political propaganda are able to create instability in the market place  and drive up the price of Oil. The people who produce Oil and Gasoline does not anymore make money from the Oil Production itself but from the rigging of the market place and Political gamesmanship.

 About $1.20 of from the price of each gallon of gasoline or oil based product purchased today has nothing to do with oil production and delivery at the Pump but with speculation by men in suits in offices who has never seen Oil Sands, never been on a rig would never be seen around oil production or delivery but hedge their bets on finding a way to deliver gasoline to the marketplace at the highest cost bleeding consumers of the last penny and some making themselves richer and even further removed from the plight of the people around them and the country they proclaim they love.

Butt Out , This is my Life the one I know!

Children need to be held and comforted
 It has become near impossible to continue to influence our child or children as they grow, one of the first things a baby does is challenge its Parents or those who are designated to care for it. Babies today are now left to fend for themselves earlier than ever, first Propping up a bottle on a pillow allowing them to feed themselves without being not noticed by the Parent or care giver. What is not being noticed is this child eyes follow Parent or care giver as they walk away reaching for the attention they think they deserve. It is said, the child's Brain develop 300 times faster from Birth to the age of six years old, faster than any other time in their life.

The child is now left to mechanical toys, sound from any sorts of Electronic Toys and implements attached to their surroundings to entertain and create their environment. There are all sorts of comforts being manufactured to make our Kids comfortable and they really do but they also separate us from those wonderful human contact that these Baby's became became accustomed to while they were carried by their mothers for 9 months huddled in their Bodies.

It is a grave shock to these Babies to find as soon as they are born they loose the warmth and feel of  these comforts and having to now fend for themselves once they loose the comforts of the womb. In any given day a Child/Baby would not have spent more than minutes being held in the arms of a Parent or care giver. The most personal and loving thing that a mother does for a child is Breast Feed. Breastfeeding is where a Mother develops their first Personal relationship with their child, it is where their first conversation takes place the first smile, where the mother gets comforted and the child feels love and contentment. This act of breast feed then is good for both mother and child creating the long term bond that usually shape the mother and child relationship of the future.
