Stimulus Package Could be Bad for your Health!

As you may or may not know, the recently passed "Stimulus Bill" has provisions that will ration health care benefits. According to the editorial in Bloomberg News:
"Ruin Your Health With the Obama Stimulus Plan," Betsy McCaughey states:

Tragically, no one from either party is objecting to the health provisions slipped in without discussion. These provisions reflect the handiwork of Tom Daschle, until recently the nominee to head the Health and Human Services Department.

Senators should read these provisions and vote against them because they are dangerous to your health.
Daschle says health-care reform “will not be pain free.” Seniors should be more accepting of the conditions that come with age instead of treating them. That means the elderly will bear the brunt.
Is this the change that was voted for? If this concerns you contact your Senator or Representative right away. To find your Congressman go to: http://www.congressmerge.com/onlinedb/index.htm

Voter fraud discoverd in the City of St. Louis, points to higher government officials

ACORN's main defense on the voter fraud issue has been that, none of their illegally registered voters actually voted. Now the City of St. Louis Board of Election Commissioner has found over 30 counts of election fraud;



The commissioners are talking about referring the case to the US Attorney in St. Louis. These guys have known about this for years and refuse to do anything about it. Our Secretary of state has been "investigating" ACORN and voter fraud and found nothing.

Here is what the Missouri GOP has to say:
Today’s announcement by the St. Louis City Board of Elections makes it clear that voter fraud continues to thrive in Missouri, despite Robin Carnahan’s attempts to cover up the problem. Earlier this year, she issued an incomplete and less-than-professional report claiming that the state’s elections are ‘free of fraud.’ We now know that this is simply not true. Carnahan, the chief elections officer in the State of Missouri, has diminished the impact of voters who abide by the law, instead, attempting to whitewash her record of overlooking the existence of voter fraud in Missouri.

We commend the St. Louis Board of Election’s diligence in the face of Carnahan’s indifference, and we hope that the U.S. Attorney fully investigates these allegations.

County taxing districts are raising taxes without a vote

While our property values are dropping due to our national financial problems (see article below) our county taxing autorities are countering by increasing their tax rates. School districts, municipalities, fire districts are raising taxes.

There are two components to your property tax. One is the assessed value of your home and the other is the tax rate per $100 valuation of your home. Last year the tax rate was $6.9808 per $100 valuation of your property. To calculate your tax, take your assessed value, divide by 100 and multiply by the tax rate. If your assessed value was $45,370, you would calculate $45,370/100= 453.7 X 6.9809 = $3,167.20 tax. Those tax rates are now increasing.
