Should wealthy retirees being getting medicare 5/22/09

Living in a wealthy luxurious homes retirees still manage to receive money from medicare. They have plenty of money yet medicare still pays for quite a bit of their medical bills. The problem is that medicare is givivg out more money than it has to give and in this economic crisis it is getting tougher and tougher. The next generation people may not be able to have the same benefit as the generation before them if something isn't done.

I think first of all it is ridiculous the fact that the governments money is going to pay for a millionaires hospital bills. Medicare might not be able to help the people who really need it in the future because of this. But I dont think the retirees really know the effect of their ignorant actions, if someone were to tell them what is really happening things would be alot different.

Swine Flu 5/8/09

The recent Swine Flu outbreak has been in the headlines recently.
it origiated from mexico and now had become an international epidemic.It has even made onto American soil. Authorities in Egypt have ordered the slaughter of pigs on many farms, although you cannot contract it from a pig.People have become frightened and have stopped buying pork. Because of this it is now called h1n1.

I think the flu will eventually pass and things will be back to normal in a month or so. In America so far not one person has died and many have been cured. There isnt a reason that anyone should avoid eating or buying meat because it only goes from person to person. It seems now that it is under control and stable.

Osama Bin Laden video 5/1/09

The movie we watched was full of interesting facts about Osama's life. It talked about both his childhood and how he came to be one of the most powerful terrorists on the planet. Osama's fortune of money is what funds his army of terrorists or know as Al Quaeda. The people who followed him praise and love him and would sacrifice their own life in his name. AL Quaeda hates the U.S. with a passion because they don't believe that any american should step foot on Islamic territory and also the fact America supports Israel, an enemy of Islam. Osama will never stop fighting until the day he dies.

I think that finding Osama Bin Laden will be one big step further on the way of eliminating terrorism. He will never stop and the sooner we find him the safer we will be. Osama fills the Islam people with hate against America using propaganda. Which much of the propaganda is false and just away to increase hate.
