Tom Cruise’s Scientological Birth Advice

Our dear, sweet Tom is full of shit. But that is no surprise to anyone these days. The master media manipulator had signs delivered to his home that his brainwashed honey Katie Holmes can read while she is birthing their child (do any of us wonder why Nicole wouldn’t give the crazy man a child? Oy!). Helpful messages include: “but be silent and make all physical movements slow and …” Yup, the Scientology folks just happened to deliver posters message side out for all of us unenlightened to read. Which we are, of course. So even this post should give Tommy some satisfaction.

A commenter at The Sun Online says, “I think it’s a fantastic idea. These boards could be employed in normal everyday life in and around the home. They could display messages such as “Do the ironing, and don’t complain about it” or “This bath won’t clean itself”. Of course these messages would be targeted at both male and female members of the household.

While screeching like a hyena tends to waste a woman’s energy while birthing, forbidding the low gutteral moans (the ones guys tend to like a certain times of ahem…Tom, is different, no doubt. I bet he likes silent sex too.) is counterproductive to birthing. American midwife Ina May Gaskin says “the same energy that gets the baby in there, helps get the baby out.” I agree having given birth to four babies.

My biggest beef though, is that since Thomas P. Cruise will give birth NEVER he should keep his big yapper shut. A first time mother is nervous enough about the experience and needs a bossy husband like she needs Barnum and Bailey in her delivery room. Sheesh. Men. The one thing that is really, truly female, galls thems so much they need to control even that.

May the force be with Katie. She’ll need it.

As for the poor child who will get no words, no singing, because noise bothers it during the first seven days–what utter horse manure. Now, a quiet, loving environment is great. They certainly don’t need the fifth fleet there with trumpets, but the child has heard everything before he is born. He’s not deaf in there, doofus. Read a science book. Katie, of course, knows this because when a loud sound happens the baby jumps inside. Guess what? He’ll be used to his mom’s voice and dad’s too. In fact, when the child cries from hunger or discomfort, mom’s voice can sooth and comfort.

Double Oy!

Mama don’t let your girls grow up and date cult members.

Spring Has Sprung: Spring Clean Out the Clutter

Yesterday, I talked about getting rid of that hated object that has bothered you for ages. Today, the topic is more general–stuff everywhere and what to do with it.

Feng Shui, a topic that elicits either muffled laughter or earnest interest, probably is the best system for getting rid of stuff in a common-sense way even though the advice is couched in mystical terms at times. Before getting to those ideas, here is some advice about clutter removal:

• Remember that visual clutter is what is tiring. Make sure surfaces don’t have stuff on them, keep the kitchen, office and room surfaces clear. You’ll feel better.
• Americans have too much stuff. If you suffer from pack-rat-itis, you need to examine yourself. Are you hoarding things because you’re a secret pessimist? As in, if I get rid of this _________, I may never get something so good again. Or, I might need it. Or, bad times will come and I’ll regret getting rid of these magazines. Do you hold the same attachment to people, or are you hold Bag Lady fears? This is not healthy.

Now onto Feng Shui advice:

• Keep all doorways clear.
• Keep entryway clear so you can easily enter and move around.
• Imagine how air or water would flow through the house. What stops it? Are there any “dead-ends”? Put something that moves energy in a dead end–a fountain, fan, radio.
• Make sure you have clear paths to what you need.
• Nothing should ever be under your bed. Ever. (Go through the old stuff you have under there, you’ll be shocked at what you find and the energy those things hold.)
• All stuff holds energy. Energy you don’t want holds you. If the energy doesn’t feed you, get rid of it.
• Books especially hold energy. Do you have any books that hold such bad information that it should be thrown out or packed away? Be very careful about having piles of books in your bedroom.
• Pictures, too, hold lots of energy. Ever get the feeling you’re being stared at and accused by great grandma? Take the picture down.
• Put kids stuff on their level. Can they get to their clothes, toys, stuff they want? Imagine trying to reach over your head all the time for what you want.
• Make sure all appliances work.
• Keep lightbulbs working. NEVER leave a socket without a light. Ever.
• Make sure you have no leaks or power problems. Water and electricity represent water in Feng Shui. A slow leak symbolizes money slipping through your hands.
• Make sure your stove has all four burners working. It is symbolic of your money-making ability. I know, it’s crazy. But we had a stove that only had two, and then one, burner working at our old house. And even though we were selling the house within two years, I urged my hubby to make the investment. It was almost magical how our financial situation improved after that. Yes, yes, other factors contributed, but there was an immediate difference.
• Your bedroom is for two things: sex and sleeping. Anything else in there distracts from that purpose. You decide how important those two things are for you.
• All this stuff is a bandaid on a flesh wound if the part of the city, the neighborhood, street you live on is bad, unsafe, or unnerving. Keep in mind that the energy of a place will affect you. If you live at the end of a street where lights flash into your house, it’s a problem. If you live on a dangerous road, it’s a problem. Without thinking about it, these factors increase your anxiety. Also, if your yard is truly a junkyard. That must be dealt with. Your landscape affects your innerscape.
• Don’t live next door or across the street from a church, cemetary or school. Bad energy or excessive energy–both are not good.
• Avoid living in houses that waste space, have loads of nooks and crannies and turns.

Most of Feng Shui is complete common sense. I read one architect who had worked for owners who always wanted a Feng Shui consultation. He said the corrections they suggested always made the plans better, in subtle, liveable ways.

Removing clutter will free up so much energy, you will be shocked. Be prepared for conversations with your spouse resolving unaired or packed away grievances. Moving stuff is symbolic. Those discussions are good though, because the issues were always there just hidden.

Your home should support and nourish your energy. All the stuff, clutter, gets in the way, literally, of what you want and/or need. Spring Cleaning will be a great way to start.

Immigration

I have dreaded posting about the messy ILLEGAL immigration situation. I capitalize illegal because no one is against legal immigration, that I know anyway. Most of us had family come through NY or some other place and value being a U.S. legal immigrant or one of her sons or daughters.

This is the latest Senate News via Fox News.
MSNBC discusses the Guest Worker program.
CBS covers the Protests that drew over 500,000 people/illegal immigrants.

This photo says it all doesn’t it? Yay for Mexico! While the U.S. benefits from Mexican illegal immigrants sweat, it also pays for them without receiving any tax dollars in return. Mexico benefits from their citizens that set up shop in the U.S., too–without paying for them. Billions get sent home to the motherland. Mexico avoids health care costs, welfare costs, and social costs that a high unemployment rate and governmental corruption from stem to stern breed. How nice for them. How not nice for the American taxpayer.

In some parts of America (fewer and fewer every day) this issue is theoretical. In Texas, this issue is real. While people in this area tend to be fairly tolerant (80% of whites view Mexican immigration as a good thing–and I can’t find the article right now, but I think this is the guy who did the research) and view the Mexican immigrants favorably, the number of under-educated immigrants from Mexico has risen and does not bode well for the future.

More than any social service, hospitals bear the brunt of uninsured soon-to-be-called “Guest Workers” in their Emergency Departments. The taxpayer foots this bill.

An illegal immigrant argues that they do work that people here don’t want to do, get paid less to do it, don’t get benefits or insurance and Americans get cheaper products. You don’t get nothin’ for nothin’. So taxpayers should be willing to pay for their emergencies when the taxpayer benefits from the Mexican illegal immigrant’s hard work.

Americans want cheap consumer goods and services kinda like drug addicts want drugs. The demand fuels the supply. The only shortcoming to this analogy is that the drug addict buys and snorts all the coke he buys. When an illegal immigrant comes, he or she usually brings his family with him–the kids go to school (free education), the grandma uses the emergency department (free healthcare), the unwed sister receives foodstamps (free food). The illegal immigrant’s work in no way balances out these economic realities. It is a net loss for America especially since first generation immigrants don’t pay taxes (it goes up for the future generations). It is a HUGE gain for Mexico.

Mexico’s economic benefit from their unemployed coming to American is multi-fold. Mexico’s government is corrupt from bottom all the way to Vicente Fox’s jet-black, well-coifed hair. Everyone is on the take. Crime is rampant. Unemployment is high. In Mexico, there are the haves and the have nots. Some of the more industrious or desperate have-nots make the trek to the U.S. This takes a tremendous amount of economic pressure off of the Haves in Mexico.

Should a wall be built to keep the industrious and desperate in Mexico, Mexico will have to come to terms with corruption and the economic imbalance or face Civil War. No one wants this, but power to the people is never going to happen at the hands of Mexican leadership. Those who run the country have too much to gain by staying rich and powerful and keeping the masses poor and stupid. No leaders in America want a Civil War on our border, we have great interests in their relative stability even if society is unfair.

Economic pressures in the U.S. have increased for the same industrious and desperate, ironically enough. Because so many Mexicans now call the U.S. their “temporary” dwelling, wage deflation has occurred. The new workers are working harder and for less money. I know this personally. A middle class person here in the Houston area can have someone clean their house for $30. (I don’t pay this little, btw, because I think the work is worth more than $30–much more.) That’s nothing. It makes no sense to clean your house. This fee has declined since five years ago. Landscapers face the same pricing pressure.

You would think that this situation would stop people from coming. It hasn’t and won’t. Why? Why would workers from Mexico keep coming when they work hard for next to nothing? Because next to nothing is better than what they are coming from and bad living conditions are better than no living conditions. It’s a matter of scale. Also, for those who don’t want to work, benefits here are better–a pain to get, but better.

My main concern with illegal immigration besides the obvious–it’s illegal, the crime committed by illegals gums up the system and consumes tax dollars, and the economic costs–is that at a certain point the economic benefit (cheap stuff and services) becomes outweighed by the economic cost. What do I mean?

Well, consumer products and services become cheap for those who can afford them, but the wages at the low end are so low that they can’t afford anything except social services. If the economy goes south and workers are let go, they are uneducated, don’t speak the language and they consume more services and inevitably commit crimes to fill the time and their pocketbooks.

I’m not saying that illegal Mexican workers are generally criminals and parasites. They are hard-working diligent people with a strong family ethic and usually devoted Christians. These are good things. In fact, I love the culture and people though I hate with a passion the corruption, crime and inequity that is part of the Mexican citizen’s daily life in Mexico. I’m proud that they view the U.S. as a great alternative because it truly is, much as liberals like to downplay this fact or deny it altogether.

Here’s my solution:

1. Seal the border.
2. Increase legal immigration and make them U.S. citizens faster.
3. Make a Southern version of Ellis Island and start processing these people, but like Ellis Island make sure the people are sponsored, are healthy, have clean records, have jobs on this side and a place to live.
4. Stop incursions by the Mexican Army who are in cahoots with drug and people smugglers. Give Vicente Fox a warning and then blast away. Our border has to mean something. We cease to be a soveign nation without a solid border.
5. No one already here gets citizenship if they are here illegally. They can go back to Mexico and go through the proper channels to get citizenship. Maybe a certain number of years working, a child whose a citizen, etc. mitigate the factors, but illegal behavior CANNOT be reinforced or it will breed more bad behavior.
6. Cut off all social services to illegal aliens. This is ruthless, true. Life is really tough in a capitalistic society for Legal citizens nevermind illegals. And well it should be. Socialism sucks the will and removes the dignity of people one hand-out at a time. Socialism is ruthless, heartless and designed to get the masses sated so they will go along with the Beloved Leader’s pet projects. As for the people outside the American system, we have experience with how this manifests. My husband saw a guy who fell two stories onto his head, saw a guy who flew out of the back of a pick-up and come to his office uninsured. The lawyers were all over both cases and would get the poor dudes a settlement from the “rich” small businessmen employing these uninsured people (hit life’s lottery by getting dumped on your head like the guy from Office Space.) We love Workers Comp! (I’m being sarcastic–it’s a haven for criminals–criminal doctors, criminal lawyers. I don’t feel bad at all for indulging in some schadenfreude now that the scumbag doctors and lawyers we knew when my husband worked for a nere-do-well doctor all lost their shirts when the Comp laws changed in Texas. Serves them right for exploiting workers and the employers.) Back to the issue: Someone not paying taxes shouldn’t get benefits.
7. When someone is stopped by the Cops and they are illegal, back they go. Escort them home to round up their families and give them plane tickets. Have them take proof of their work, their homes, etc. and if they have a record of good, clean living expedite their paperwork to make them real citizens.
8. Anyone fighting for the U.S. in the military gets citizenship fast-tracked. They get high honors for service? They get to bring a family member.

Ideas that are stupid: amnesty, Guest Worker Cards (um, have these people heard of the black market? anyone can get papers now), another Homeland Security agency, almost anything Ted Kennedy comes up with.

The problem with illegal immigration comes down to unfairness to all the people who are working their asses off to get family members here legally. My nail guy saved $7,000 per family member and sponsored both his mother and father from Vietnam and his sister. He works hard, absolutely loves America, speaks the language and though he lives in a Vietnamese community is an American down to his toe-nails.

Same goes for my hair guy from Lebanon. He is Muslim, named Mohommed and the best colorist besides my dear Wayne from Lansing, Michigan. He sponsored his wife to come here. He knows the language. He knows the culture. He is American. Legally.

Illegal immigration must stop. But for the strength of America, legal immigration must continue. We need the workers, we need the ideas and we need to be the place everyone longs to live. Pandering to people who don’t vote, don’t pay taxes and whose allegience lays south of the border is ridiculous. Our congressmen need to remember who they work for.

Marriage is for White People

Yesterday night, late, a link on Instapundit got my attention: Marriage is for White People said the title. Huh? I read the Editorial and couldn’t get to sleep that night, mulling over the implications of Joy Jone’s opinion.

Traditional notions of family, especially the extended family network, endure. But working mothers, unmarried couples living together, out-of-wedlock births, birth control, divorce and remarriage have transformed the social landscape. And no one seems to feel this more than African American women. One told me that with today’s changing mores, it’s hard to know “what normal looks like” when it comes to courtship, marriage and parenthood. Sex, love and childbearing have become a la carte choices rather than a package deal that comes with marriage. Moreover, in an era of brothers on the “down low,” the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and the decline of the stable blue-collar jobs that black men used to hold, linking one’s fate to a man makes marriage a risky business for a black woman.

“A woman who takes that step is bold and brave,” one young single mother told me. “Women don’t want to marry because they don’t want to lose their freedom.” (emphasis added)

A man doesn’t want to lose his freedom in his testosterone-charged 20s and now women don’t want to lose their freedom in their independent 30s. Marriage = Loss of Freedom.

Is this statement true? Has being married mean, well, that I’m a slave, or an indentured servant? Isn’t that what “loss of freedom” means at its most basic?

I can see why a woman wouldn’t want to marry a debt-laden, STD carrying, addiction-recovering shiftless bum of a man especially given the likelihood that this woman is a single mother, with a good job and seeks a partner not “another baby.” But didn’t these women help to create the Big Babies? This is going to get me in hot water, I can feel it, but I’ll press on. When a woman allows every cutie with a tight glutes into her bed in her 20s without so much as a last name and a condom-request, doesn’t she contribute to the perpetual petulant man-child phenomenon? I mean, come on, those babies the women are raising alone didn’t jump into her uterus without some help.

It seems to me that one of the trade-offs for sexual liberation, have been isolation and solitary responsibility. The men were talking about here, also have trouble keepin a job, staying sober and generally contributing to society–they aren’t parenting as the earnest little boy in Ms. Jone’s anecdote hopes:

But as a black woman, I have witnessed the outrage of girlfriends when the ex failed to show up for his weekend with the kids, and I’ve seen the disappointment of children who missed having a dad around. Having enjoyed a close relationship with my own father, I made a conscious decision that I wanted a husband, not a live-in boyfriend and not a “baby’s daddy,” when it came my time to mate and marry.

My time never came.

For years, I wondered why not. And then some 12-year-olds enlightened me.

“Marriage is for white people.”

That’s what one of my students told me some years back when I taught a career exploration class for sixth-graders at an elementary school in Southeast Washington. I was pleasantly surprised when the boys in the class stated that being a good father was a very important goal to them, more meaningful than making money or having a fancy title.

“That’s wonderful!” I told my class. “I think I’ll invite some couples in to talk about being married and rearing children.”

“Oh, no,” objected one student. “We’re not interested in the part about marriage. Only about how to be good fathers.”

And that’s when the other boy chimed in, speaking as if the words left a nasty taste in his mouth: “Marriage is for white people.”

Here’s the thing, that child had to be told by someone, probably a mother, that marriage isn’t for black people to justify the situation. A boy wants a father. A mother must come up with a reasonable explanation why no father exists. This rationalization is as good as any.

It seems like the author believes, like many feminists believe, that there are only two options: independence/alone/single/freedom or dependence/together/married/enslaved.

That has not been my experience either way and it’s not what I see. While being married can be challenging, I shudder to think of parenting my kids alone. Like all people, I have bad days and am glad to be partnered with someone who can parent as well, but differently, as I do.

In the last generation, men 50 and up, men came home from work to their woman. She cooked him dinner, cleaned the house, cared for the kids and almost everything else. The man watched TV and pretty much did as he damn well pleased. At least that was my home and that of most of my friends.

Growing up, I found the man-woman dynamic repulsive. Most (not all) men talked to their women like another child, showed little to no respect for her hard work and expected everything to be done their way–he was the breadwinner afterall.

Today, the roles for the black population (according to Ms. Jones anyway) are reversed. She brings home the bacon, fries it up in a pan, in the house she buys, with the kids she gave birth to and she’s not much interested in anyone’s opinion about how she lives her life. And, she’s not interested in changing her life around for a man. Why should she?

Is this what women have aspired to? To possess the same selfish, chauvanistic, degrading attitudes toward men that men used to have for women? Tit for tat, as it were?

While the old stodgy roles stifled lots of women into being exclusively mothers and nothing more, throwing the mother role, the wife role, marriage itself out seems to be cutting our noses off despite our faces.

Marriage, between well-matched, loving partners, free people like no other social contract. Married people have more, better sex lives than their single counterparts. Married people, help one another during tough times. Married people have two people who can work should one get sick or hurt or lose a job. Married people don’t have to do everything themselves–so the one with the money talent does that. The one with the gardening talent does that.

Married people can focus on the ways they can help their children best and not try to be Mr. or Ms. Everything. No one can nurture a child like a mom. No one can protect a child like a dad. While I’m not interested in playing horsey-rider with my kids, my husband is and does. While I’m not interested in working a chain-saw (not that I couldn’t) my husband is. My sons and daugher see a man treating a woman with respect and kindness. They see a mutual relationship. They see conflict resolution. They see friendship and relationships modelled (for better or worse).

My sons and daughter see a whole lot of behavior modelled by their father they just wouldn’t see with me alone. Could they survive? Could they grow up to be fine men and a fine woman without their Daddy in the house? I’d like to think so. But there is just no getting around the fact they would not see certain things growing up without a dad or a mom and that that lack would manifest when faced with similar situations as an adult. It would cause confusion like this:

One told me that with today’s changing mores, it’s hard to know “what normal looks like” when it comes to courtship, marriage and parenthood. Sex, love and childbearing have become a la carte choices rather than a package deal that comes with marriage.

Relationships “a la carte” cause confusion. There is a reason that marriage has been one of the most traditional, enduring social building blocks. It simplifies life. But marriage is not for selfish people. Marriage is not for people thinking that they can come home from work and boss around “the help”. Marriage is not for people who view any compromise as a zero-sum game–a loss for themselves.

Marriage might consist of little “losses” but overall gains. Are we so short-sighted and selfish that we are willing to chuck it so we can have our own way all the time? Are we so inflexible and hardened that we are willing to short-change our children for our own comfort. Marriage, done right, offers safety, companionship, protection and stability for people. What is bad about this?

While Ms. Jones make a statement about the class of men available to her, not all men are this way! Perhaps she is hanging with the wrong crowd. Perhaps she hung with the wrong crowd in her 20s, too, when most people find their mates and get married.

Marriage is for all people, but they better be ready to give a little, because operating like a single person with a ring on doesn’t cut it. It will be a sad day for America if the majority of all people, black, white or purple come to the conclusion Ms. Jones comes to. A sad day, indeed.

Turn Off the TV

Want to add hours to your productivity like magic? Want to diminish the anguish from relentlessly bad news? Want to be more educated and less bothered? Turn off the TV.

Five years ago, my mindless, robot-like addiction to the Television finally irritated me to the point of action. I would sit and watch one program that I wanted, then I would watch another program that I didn’t simply because I was sitting in front of the tube like a rube. Eventually, my lazy TV watching became a daily habit. When the hours of sitting, vegging got added up, two extra work days produced themselves.

A book I read recommended the drastic step of eliminating TV. With an autisitc son who used TV like Prozac, this was not going to be easy for any of us. We would all suffer withdrawal symptoms. And we did. My husband came home with a sour look and foul attitude. My son ranted and raved and begged. I stood my ground, but experiencedthe shakes myself. No more Oprah! Gulp! I might fall apart. No more March Madness. No more Sunday or Monday Night Football (this seemed to bother me more than the hubby, if you can imagine).

It took us three years to truly purge the remnants of the vile poison from our systems. Something happened, unexpected, though. We expected to get more done. We expected to enjoy more time to fill as we wanted. We didn’t expect the peace of mind and sensitivity to garbage.

Like addicts, we had become immune to some pretty awful side-effects. Seeing the starving, waring masses failed to impress. Watching the hyped up, nearly gleeful, news reporting seemed rational. Taking in the provacative and sexually charged advertising images caused yawns. We didn’t even turn our heads or change the channel with the kids in the room. Snooze.

You’ll notice that I bought a flat-screen TV for someone’s birthday, just in time for March Madness. The basketball has been great. Seeing the news and the advertising has not. Sensational, titillating, degrading, smutty–who needs it? I absolutely hate it.

Some will say, “How can I stay informed without TV?” One word: The Internet. Get more news, more accurate news, quicker and far more informative than TV or radio can deliver all at your fingertips. My understanding of world-events has much improved since getting rid of the TV.

Having the TV back has not tempted me. Watching Oprah holds no allure. Watching Sunday morning talking heads holds even less. Thankfully, though, we don’t have cable. I’m not 100% sure my addiction could handle being tempted by Interior Design shows.

Getting rid of TV will change your life–for the positive. If the days seem overwhelmingly busy, getting rid of the TV will help create time, much more than you even realise, to accomplish what you want. Oh, and there is this side-effect, too: the original article I read said that you’ll get make more money without TV. That has been our experience.

Turn off the TV. Turn on life!

Iraq & Russia Before the War

Citizens of the world, even today, will go to their graves believing that Iraq possessed no WMDs despite all circumstantial evidence to the contrary. Now, Gateway Pundit, provides some visuals of Russians receiving awards from Saddam for being such helpy helpers. Did the Russians take the WMDs to Syria? Naaaah…. No way! Did the Russians steal intelligence and feed it to Iraq before the war? No, they’re our friends, Prez Bush says so!

Puhleeeeze.

Get Rid of It, Already!

A few years ago, while cleaning up our house to put it on the market my husband burst out, “I HATE THAT LAMP!” Well that lamp was a wedding present from friends who were as poor as we were and so we (or maybe just I was) were happy to have any sort of lighting since our first abode/box, came with no overhead lights and two windows total in the whole place. For years, the irritation bubbled very subtly under the surface. So subtly that I was shocked when he said it.

“Well, for heaven’s sake! Let’s get rid of it!” I said. And we did. Right then.

We all have stuff taking up room, filling up space, piling up on tables that we despise or just generally dislike. We try to ignore it, but every time we pass by the offending thing we sigh or shake our head or just resign ourselves to it’s annoying presence. Why?

Spring cleaning should include getting rid of obligation gifts that we hate, decorative objects whose style is repulsive, and sad-sack things that just are way past their prime. They drain energy and take up space where something new or better could be.

Most people protest that they “can’t afford a new lamp/chair/couch” or if we get rid of it “Aunt Polly will be offended/angry/hurt”. Bah! Your house needs to be a restful, restorative, place that centers on you. The space left open by the missing item will prod you to either fill it with something better, or you may find you never needed the thing, don’t miss it and don’t want to fill the space.

My least favorite furniture item was a couch nearly identical to the picture above. Just thinking about it gives me hives and my nose fills with the smell of mold and dead cells. Digusting, right? Yup, disgusted would be very descriptive of how I felt even thinking about sitting on that wretched thing. We left the behemoth behind in Michigan when we moved to New York. Sweet, blessed relief! I would have rather sat on the floor, why we didn’t I can’t tell you.

Get rid of it, already! You’ll be happy you did.

Persistant Sexual Arousal Syndrome: And Men Don’t Get It

Possibly another side-effect of SSRIs (hmmmm, where can I get me some of them thar Prozacs?), PSAS, as it is currently called, affects more women than thought. It is a new syndrome and evidently the opposite of all those frigid ladies out there. Imagine getting sexually aroused and never coming down despite having multiple orgasms. Torture. No doubt there is more to this scientific story and further research will be conducted, much to the delight of men with rich fantasy lives everywhere.

Betsy Balances the U.S. Budget

No really! She does….hypothetically anyway. I suggested that her students may want to work on personal budgets since the government is unlikely to get its act together in this generation and they may be on their own when they get old and retire. No Social Security and Medicaid for them. Better start saving.
