Louisiana politician, State Rep. John LaBruzzo might of come up with the next bright idea since slice bread. LaBruzzo is proposing a idea to give every female welfare recipient $1,000 to tie her tubes. LaBruzzo claims there are too many people on welfare relying on the government to step in take care of their kids. He goes on to elaborate that an incentive program like this will counter the rising rate of abortions as well. Critics say the proposal is insane because the idea is racist, sexist, unethical and immoral. It seems critics don't realize that a program like this is 100% voluntary, and will eventually reduce the cost of taxes towards welfare. It's time that someone does something about people producing children they can't afford to take care of. Although this proposal is in the beginning stages, I think with a few minor adjustments individual states might seriously consider this program.

So the $700 billion proposal failed. Talk about scary, this is frightening. The House of Representatives voted 228 to 208 not in favor of the proposal. For the last year people have been complaining about the economy and it's devastating ripple effects. Gas prices won't be the only thing people are concerned with. Next will be the price of food, rejection of college loans, and an even more struggling real estate market. Sorry folks, not even Obama could fix these problems. Which kind of leaves me to believe he'll be the next person to blame if elected President. After all, America needs someone to be an escape goat - and the Bush excuse is getting a tad bit old.

What's up with the obsession with bacon lately. It's going a tad bit overboard these days. It's one thing for people to add bacon to salads in an eager attempt to justify their taste buds, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. There's a whole new generation of bacon ideas that makes my stomach turn which causes an instant gag reflex. There are tons of questionable bacon ideas such as the bacon cinnamon roll, chocolate covered bacon, bacon scallops, bacon dental floss, and how could I forget the infamous bacon martini. Perhaps it's my undying will to become more free spirited amongst the fat and flabby minded people behind these creations. Whatever it is, I'll pass.

....Outside of bacon I have a real strong stomach for just about anything. It takes a lot for something to disgust me.

Final Thought: I'm going to try to play devil's advocate in a meager attempt to understand the selfishness of the Government. The majority of the House of Representatives didn't feel $700 billion was going to restore the economy, in fact they believed the proposal would further damage the economy. Bailing out private corporations isn't always a good idea, because who's to say we won't be back in the same situation next year. Sure if the proposal was passed then tax payers would fit the bill, but what other options do we have at this point? It's scary to think that wiping people's retirement funds, more banks closing, and rising fuel cost all might be attributed to the Government's lack of urgency to fix our economy.
