Resonant Chaos

Every politician needs a photo of a Health Care nightmare on his or her desk

I recently posted a video in response to The Honorable Mr. Rogers of Michigan in which I am a little upset with him for not taking care of his own people by playing politics as usual. Our country has become much too divisive and political. Everything is shades of blue or red; socialism or patriotism. There is no middle ground any longer. There is no civil discourse. The result of this divisiveness is a total lack of representation by our elected officials.

However, in using other peoples comments and feedback I utilize my own built-in algorithm to check for consistency and credibility. The real problem comes when we are not presented with the information at all -- we have no opportunity to make our own decisions.

I read with interest a recent article in which North Carolina intends to “test” their state employees for nicotine use or being “fat” and charge them extra for Health Insurance if either is true for them or members of their family.

100+ social activism YouTube channels

So I wondered if there is actually anything good going on in the world of YouTube. So I went in search of channels that seemed to be about something other then themselves. I found well over a hundred and I’m not done yet.

LOOKING FOR A JOB WHEN YOU ARE OLDER

Tim Ladd — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 03:41:45 +0000

Oh man, I NEVER thought I’d be OLD enough to be writing this kind of blog post! Jobless rates are at the highest levels they have been since the great depression for people 55 and older. I’m not quite there yet but I’m close. If you think back on other recessions, it’s usually the younger folks that get laid off or can’t find work but the more experienced workers keep their jobs. Not so in this recession (dare I say depression?).

The bottom line is: if I'm so valuable to YOUR bottom line then prove it!

Define cheating in response to a Frisky post

Tim Ladd — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 17:02:51 +0000

My comment got too long on this post by The Frisky so I decided to just blog my response. What is “cheating” in a relationship? You also have to look at the word “cheating”. Defined as: 1. To act dishonestly; practice fraud. 2. To violate rules deliberately, as in a game: was accused of cheating at cards. 3. Informal To [...]
