FISHING FOR OIL

How could local fishing fleets be best employed to recover oil?
Fisherman are used to being paid for their catch by weight. Could they be trained to recover oil without getting sick and bring it to BP funded weighing stations? If an appropriate price could be set for the oil, fishermen could be working through the crisis while being a part of the solution. If doable, it would be better for BP than just paying damages while people sit idle and watch their livelyhood destroyed, and better for the fishermen than the helplessness of watching the oil roll in.

The Healthcare Independence Act of 2010 Will Create Freedom and Unleash Entrepreneurism

It is time to pass the Healthcare Independence Act of 2010. Healthcare reform can unleash a wave of entrepreneurism by giving Americans the freedom to act. It takes an act of faith to leave a steady job or sidestep the job market to pursue the dream of a successful startup business. But fear of losing medical coverage or not having access to it strikes a blow against the entrepreneurial spirit every day.

Healthcare reform can free Americans and unleash a wave of entrepreneurism by throwing out discrimination against patients with pre-existing medical conditions, making real health insurance available to all American citizens, and making healthcare portable.

It is time to call it what it is: "The Healthcare Independence Act of 2010". This is the economic stimulus and pro-small business policy that we need today and for our future.

Government is not a "Creator"

Government is not a "Creator"
Our government was instituted by humans to secure "unalienable rights" endowed by their Creator. Corporations, labor unions, etc. are artificial creations of man to serve a purpose and do not have unalienable rights, nor should they be afforded the same protections under our great Constitution.
