The plane, the plane... Fantasy Island and Health Care

Or here in norway it's no plane, no plane due to the volcano on Island and the ash being pumped into the air... ALL the airports are closed and it's not just norway, several northern european countries have banned all flights. Fantasy Island or not, the people in that nation need help, but never having visited, I don't know or have understanding of why people would want to live there in the first place. Maybe it's wonderful, maybe not... Poor people, first the economy goes bust on them and then this... Nothing really new happening in regards to other things related...

Health Care bill in the states passed, but it's not going to take affect until 2015 or something, or maybe it was 2020. By then maybe the people there will be ready for it, I think most americans lack the understanding of what a social government is and how, if it's run correctly, can be a good thing. There is something here in norway that they have figured out, they have developed a sysytem that works, so far.. if they continue letting people in the country, well, then things could look very very different and things are going in that direction. We have more and more new people moving here, and of course they all have the same rights as anyone else when they are allowed to stay... I am one of these new people myself, so I can't go to far with this anyway. Back to the issue of health care... according to many national polls, the majority of people, maybe as high as 80% of the people don't or did not want the bill... Just like the bailout for the dirty bankers, they passed the bill knowing all along that the people did not want it... what does that tell us?

A little scary to think about I think, even here in norway they pass new taxes and things when they know it's very unpopular.... same crap over alt.. Gotta run... it's hard to keep up the 4 blogs and this one and the opgt one are the ones that suffer.
