SOCIAL SECURITY NOW CALLED 'FEDERAL BENEFIT PAYMENT!

Congress just stole our SS $, illegally, I might add!
Borrowing from it and not paying it back is the same as THEFT.

SOCIAL SECURITY NOW CALLED   'FEDERAL BENEFIT PAYMENT' ENTITLEMENT!

Have you noticed, your Social Security check is now referred to as a "federal benefit payment"? I'll be part of the one percent, to forward this, our government gets away with way too much in all areas of our lives, while they live lavishly on their grossly overpaid incomes!

KEEP passing THIS AROUND UNTIL EVERY ONE HAS READ IT..
...
  SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT THE ONLY THING WRONG WITH THIS CALCULATION IS THEY FORGOT TO FIGURE IN THE PEOPLE   WHO DIED BEFORE   THEY COLLECTED THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY!!!!
WHERE DID THAT MONEY GO?????????????

This was sent to me, I am forwarding it because it does touch a nerve in me. This is another example of what Rick Perry called "TREASON in high places" !!!

Get angry and pass this on!

Remember, not only did you contribute to Social Security but your employer did too. It totaled 15% of your income before taxes. If you averaged only $30K over your working life, that's close to $220,500. If you calculate the future value of $4,500 per year (yours & your employer's contribution) at a simple 5% (less than what the government
pays on the money that it borrows), after 49 years of working you'd have $892,919.98.

If you took out only 3% per year, you'd receive $26,787.60 per year and it would last better than 30 years (until you're 95 if you retire at age 65) and that's with no interest paid on that final amount on deposit! If you bought an annuity and it paid 4% per year, you'd have a lifetime income of $2,976.40 per month.

The folks in Washington have pulled off a bigger Ponzi scheme than Bernie Madhoff ever had.

Entitlement my butt, I paid cash for my social security
insurance!!!! Just because they borrowed the money, doesn't make my benefits some kind of charity or handout!!


Congressional benefits ---- free healthcare, outrageous retirement packages, 67 paid holidays, three weeks paid vacation, unlimited paid sick days, now that's welfare, and they have the nerve to call my social security retirement entitlements?

We're "broke" and can't help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, Homeless. In the last months we have provided aid to Haiti , Chile , and Turkey . And now Pakistan ......home of bin Laden. Literally, BILLIONS of DOLLARS!!!

Our retired seniors living on a 'fixed income' receive no aid nor do they get any breaks while our government and religious organizations pour Hundreds of Billions of $$$$$$'s and Tons of Food to Foreign Countries!

They call Social Security and Medicare an entitlement even though most of us have been paying for it all our working lives and now when it's time for us to collect, the government is running out of money.

Why did the government borrow from it in the first place? Imagine if the *GOVERNMENT* gave 'US' the same support they give to other countries.

Sad isn't it?

99% of people won't have the guts to forward this

I'm one of the 1% -- I Just Did.

"SOME IDEAS ARE SO STUPID ONLY INTELLECTUALS BELIEVE THEM."
George Orwell

When the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.

Is this man truly a genius? Checked out and this is true...it DID happen!

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.

The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan". All grades will be averaged and everyone will receive the same grade so no one will fail and no one will receive an A.... (substituting grades for dollars - something closer to home and more readily understood by all).

After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.

The second test average was a D! No one was happy.

When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.

As the tests proceeded, the scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.

To their great surprise, ALL FAILED and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.
It could not be any simpler than that. (Please pass this on)


Remember, there IS a test coming up. The 2012 elections.


These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read and all applicable to this experiment:

1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!

5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Can you think of a reason for not sharing this? Neither could I. 

Diabetics Rejoice

Diabetics Rejoice
In a study reported in the journal Diabetes Care, researchers estimated that by the year 2034, the number of Americans with diabetes will nearly DOUBLE... ...from 24 million to 44 million people. (an 83% increase) At the same time, the Census Bureau estimates only about a 23% increase in US population by 2034. So why on earth would diabetes double if the total number of people isn't going to change that much? If the risk is rising that much, the most important question is what you can you do to make sure it doesn't happen to you? Right? I mean, you don't want to go blind or die or have any arms or legs cut off by any one of the thousands of knife-wielding Dr Frankensteins out there. Right? Look, this diabetes epidemic is no mystery. In fact, it makes a lot of sense. Because diabetes goes hand in hand with a physical condition called "Syndrome X" (aka insulin resistance) which currently affects between 65 and 70 million people in the US alone. Here's what Syndrome X is, and why it is a major driving factor behind the drastic increase in type II diabetes: Syndrome X and the creation of diabetes Syndrome X (insulin resistance) is when your body produces insulin but doesn't use it properly. Insulin is a hormone secreted by the pancreas that tells your cells to take in glucose so it can be used for energy. When you're healthy, your food is broken down into glucose, which is absorbed into the bloodstream and travels throughout your body. When your blood glucose level rises after eating, the pancreas releases insulin to alert your cells to take in and use the glucose. So far so good... But when someone is insulin resistant, their cells don't respond like they should to insulin -- they "lock the door" and won't let the glucose in. As a result, their body needs MORE insulin to help glucose enter their cells. The pancreas gets stressed, desperately trying to keep up with this increased demand for insulin, but eventually it can fail. Then excess glucose builds up in your bloodstream, and voila -- you can develop type II diabetes. The dangers of Syndrome X (insulin resistance) Many people with Syndrome X end up developing these medical problems: * High blood pressure * Elevated LDL (bad cholesterol) and triglycerides * Coronary artery disease * Heart attack * Obesity How Syndrome X happens Insulin resistance is mainly due to eating LOTS of refined carbohydrates (sugars, white flour, white rice and all products made with them - there are thousands of them). Your poor pancreas eventually can't handle the daily onslaught of such high glycemic foods. There is evidence that it can be partly genetic as well. And there's another cause known mostly just in the research community because it hasn't been widely publicized and/or reported on yet... A deficiency in Omega-3 essential fatty acids. Here's why: Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) are found in every part of your body. They're a MAJOR part of your cell membranes where they help control many metabolic functions -- including the production and release of insulin. Plus, EPA and DHA are fundamental building blocks of virtually every organ and organ system, and play a crucial role in healthy physiological function. So to be low in such important nutrients can have drastic consequences from head to toe. That's why insulin resistant people are also candidates for the other conditions I mentioned above -- every single bodily system and process can be affected by an Omega-3 deficiency. In addition, your body depends on having the appropriate balance of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acids (experts say between 3:1 and 5:1 is best). Having too much of one or the other leads to inflammation, sickness and disease. Because our typical diet of convenient processed foods grain-fed meat and vegetable oils are high in Omega-6 fatty acids.  As a result, an estimated 6 out of 10 Americans have WAY too much Omega-6 and are seriously low in Omega-3. The studies prove it Mountains of lab tests have been performed that show when animals are fed a diet high in Omega-6 oils, they become insulin resistant and obese. But when the animals were given Omega-3 supplements, their metabolism became normal -- even when they continued to eat lots of Omega-6 fats. Similar testing results have been seen in humans. Australian researcher Leonard A. Storlien has found that people whose muscle cells have low levels of Omega-3 fatty acids and high levels of Omega-6 are far more likely to be insulin resistant and obese. And he also noticed the more unbalanced the Omega-6 to 3 ratio was, the heavier the people were. That means if you have a spare tire or muffin top, you are very likely high in Omega-6s and too low in Omega-3s. What you can do To avoid being a Syndrome X statistic and face a future of, among other things, type II diabetes, it's essential to ensure that your body has the Omega-3 fatty acids it desperately needs. Literally your health from head to toe depends on it. The good news is that's easy to do -- it involves just 2 simple steps: 1- Increase your intake of Omega-3 rich foods and decrease the Omega-6 foods you eat The Great Taste No Pain health system can make this a snap for you. You can learn more about it and get it here. The Great Taste No Pain manuals tell you the exact foods to eat in order to get your Omega 3s and which ones to avoid with all the Omega 6s in them.   And if you're gluten sensitive, no problemo. Great Taste No Gluten is your ticket.   2- Replenish your Omega-3 supply with pharmaceutical-grade fish oil supplements. A medical-grade, Omega-3 fish oil supplement like VitalMega-3 can help you satisfy this vital need. Just 2 capsules a day gives you a whopping 2,000 mg of the purest, medical grade fish oil LOADED with EPA and DHA (the necessary Omega-3 fatty acids). A whole lot more than you'll find in grocery stores, and most health food stores. I personally take 5 a day. Feel for yourself what a difference a proper ratio of Omega-3 fatty acids can make in YOUR health. You'll feel it quickly. Avoid Syndrome X. Follow this advice and be among the strong, healthy people who just read the grim statistics instead of being one of them To your health, Sherry Brescia PS: Geraldine is off all medication and her 2 friends are controlling their diabetes: Dear Sherry, A few years ago I had my gallbladder removed and was also suffering dreadful pain in my stomach. The pain was so bad that it stopped me from eating or even functioning at all. I rolled around the floor in agony. I was then diagnosed with autoimmune gastritis and helicobacter pylori and stomach ulcers. I suffered dreadfully with diarrhea, sometimes up to 12 times per day. I had no control over my bowel movements at all and had frequent accidents in public places. I was in a dreadful state and desperate for help. My doctor eventually put me on medication for diarrhea as well as Zoton for my ulcers, Buscopan for the cramps in my stomach and a host of painkillers. I have frequent checks with the camera to check if I have inflammation in my stomach. Like I said, I was in a desperate state and tied not only to the house, but to the toilet. In desperation, I turned to the internet only to find you. Thank God I did. I immediately ordered your Great Taste No Pain plan and started to eat as you suggested. Within days, the diarrhea stopped, the ulcers cleared up and the pain ceased. I was so impressed, I ordered another copy for my friend, who immediately felt better and told others about GTNP. I ended up ordering 4 copies of your plan for friends, and now a huge circle of friends, family and acquaintances are using it. Some have lost some of the bulge they had been battling with for a long time; others no longer suffer from heartburn, skin rashes, stomach ache, while two friends are controlling their diabetes on this regime. My life has returned to normal and I no longer take medication. I'm 52 years old and had been in pain since my early thirties. Doctors constantly told me that my gallbladder was causing all the pain, nausea and ulcers, but even when they removed my gallbladder, I was no better. In fact I became worse. This is when the diarrhea became unbearable. I couldn't leave my home and my life became so unbearable that I thought I'd be better off dead. My doctor even suggested that I wear an incontinence pad to cope with the diarrhea. This is when I ordered your plan. I now am able to do a two and a half hour show on stage without any fear of pain, diarrhea or nausea. My confidence has returned and I am happy again. I no longer trust doctors and I tell everyone I come into contact with about Great Taste No Pain and the benefits I received from following it. I no longer buy stuff in packets and eat only fresh foods and combined as you suggested. Thank you so much for giving me back the quality of life I never would have achieved had I listened to my doctor. I am free of medication for the 1st time in 20 years. Thank you again. Yours sincerely, Geraldine C. ******************* Want more case studies?  Here are a few thousand for you. Haven't taken the Great Taste No Pain test drive?  Why not?  Atsamattayou?

From AbundantHope.net Environment/Science 10 Year Old Discovers Explosive, Chemistry Comic Books By Craig Bettenhausen Mar 3, 2012 - 4:22:14 PM 10 Year Old Discovers Explosive, Chemistry Comic Books By Craig Bettenhausen A first scholarly publication is a moment of great pride for any young scientist. Clara Lazen of Kansas City, Mo., will have that one in the bag before she learns algebra. Last year, Lazen was experimenting with a molecular modeling kit in Kenneth Boehr’s fifth-grade classroom at Border Star Montessori when she came up with a brand-new molecule. The atoms fit together and satisfied the bonding rules from her lessons. “All the holes” in the model atoms “have to be filled in for it to be stable,” she explained in a TV interview. When asked whether the compound was real, Boehr wasn’t sure, so he sent a picture of it to his friend from college, computational chemist Robert W. Zoellner of Humboldt State University. Zoellner’s search of the literature showed Lazen’s molecule, tetrakis(nitratoxycarbon)methane, to be a novel compound featuring a novel moiety: an NO3 group bound to a carbon through its three oxygen atoms. That high-energy configuration has not been observed in organic systems and would be synthetically challenging, Zoellner says. [+]Enlarge However, after performing energy calculations on the molecule with density functional and Hartree-Fock theoretical methods, Zoellner concluded that “this bonding mode for a nitrate group appears to be computationally supportable, even if thermodynamically disfavored.” He reported the findings in a recent paper coauthored with Lazen and Boehr (Comp. Theor. Chem., DOI: 10.1016/j.comptc.2011.10.011). Lazen’s compound might one day be used for energy storage or as an explosive, according to the team. Despite her youth, Lazen has grown-up ideas about funding. “I can sell this to the military,” she says, “for money.” [+]Enlarge Treasure: Getting from reactants to products can be quite a journey. Credit: Chemorphesis When Lazen hits high school chemistry class, she might have more tools at her disposal than modeling kits, if a project at the University of California, San Diego, succeeds. “Chemorphesis” is a comic-book series aimed at teaching key chemistry concepts through the adventures of anthropomorphized chemical species. The project began out of conversations between Rebecca Ou, an undergraduate chemistry major and writing minor, and Haim Weizman, a professor of chemical education. Ou wanted to write stories explaining chemistry concepts, and Weizman suggested using a comic-book format to help them find an audience. They recruited undergrads Annie Jia and Angeline Yu to produce the Japanese-style artwork and build a website. In the first comic, “Musical Chairs,” nucleophilic substitution is explored through the tribulations of a rock band called SN1. The band’s prima donna vocalist walks out, leaving the band in an unstable state. Later, after a bass guitar (hydride) shift, a new nucleophilic vocalist joins the group and SN1 is ready to perform. “Catalysis” re­imagines the familiar reaction coordinate diagram as a treasure map. Four adventurers find the map, which they follow over a dangerous mountain. The way is blocked by a fearsome dragon atop an imposing peak, and the group lacks the energy to overcome such a barrier. Just as the treasure seekers are ready to turn back, a mysterious stranger appears and catalyzes their passage along a convoluted, secret route through the mountain. Whimsical as it might seem, the project is not just for fun. “Like everything, we think about it as an experiment,” Weizman says. The students have earned college credit for their work, and Weizman plans to research the efficacy of the comics as textbook supplements. “Chemorphesis” is gaining popularity fast; an excess of visitors crashed its website right as the Newscripts gang was getting to the good part. The project has since secured more stable hosting; it’s now at chemorphesis.ucsd.edu, and Ou and the group are actively working on new stories. Craig Bettenhausen wrote this week’s column.

Michelle Obama says - Thank You America

THANK YOU AMERICA ! Dear American Taxpayer For only the second time in my adult life, I am not ashamed of my country. I want to thank the hard working American people for paying $242 thousand dollars for my vacation in Spain . My daughter Sasha, several long-time family friends, my personal staff and various guests had a wonderful time. Honestly, you just haven't lived until you have stayed in a $2,500.00 per night private 3-story villa at a 5-Star luxury hotel. Thank you also for the use of Air Force Two and the 70 Secret Service personnel who tagged along to be sure we were safe and cared for at all times. By the way, if you happen to be visiting the Costa del Sol , I highly recommend the Buenaventura Plaza restaurant in Marbella ; great lobster with rice and oysters! I'm ashamed to admit the lobsters we ate in Martha's Vineyard were not quite as tasty, but what can you do if you're not in Europe , you have to just grin and bear it? Air Force Two (which costs $11,351 per hour to operate according to Government Accounting Office reports) only used 47,500 gallons of jet fuel for this trip and carbon emissions were a mere 1,031 tons of CO2. These are only rough estimates, but they are close. That's quite a carbon footprint as my good friend Al Gore would say, so we must ask the American citizens to drive smaller, more fuel efficient cars and drive less too, so we can lessen our combined carbon footprint. I know times are hard and millions of you are struggling to put food on the table and trying to make ends meet. So I do appreciate your sacrifices and do hope you find work soon. I was really exhausted after Barack took our family on a luxury vacation in Maine a few weeks ago. I just had to get away for a few days. Cordially, Michelle (Moochelle) Obama P.S. Thank you as well for the $2 BILLION dollar trip to India from which we just returned! P.SS. Thank you, too, for that vacation trip to Martha's Vineyard; it was fabulous. And thanks for that second smaller jet that took our dog Bo to Martha's Vineyard so we and the children could have him with us while we were away from the White House for eleven days. After all, we couldn't take him on Air Force One because he might pee on some wires or something. P.SSS. Oh, I almost forgot to say thanks also for our two-week trip to Hawaii at Christmas. That 7,000 square foot house was great! P.SSSs don't forget my ski trip to Vail this winter and now the girls and I are in Africa with my mom. All this while Barack golfs and campaigns to keep my trips coming for the next 4 years ! Love ya! Remember, we all have to share the pain of these economic times equally! Love to -redistribute- share- the wealth. SEND THIS TO EVERY AMERICAN NOW STAND UP, SPEAK UP.

Have I Not Commanded You?

Have I Not Commanded You?

March 4, 2012

Have I not commanded you not to fear? Have I not commanded you to not doubt Me, or to let things cause you to worry and question My leading you? Why then do I see you striving to work things out and to figure things out still? I do not want you to resist My Spirit who is leading you everyday. Do not take your eyes off of Me. I have told you that I know what I am doing, yet you continue to look around and judge things by what you see. You cannot do this, and walk in harmony with Me. What you see is not truly what is to remain, and what is at work is around you not within your ability to comprehend at this time. I am doing a very deep surgical work around you that requires your full attention upon Me. I want you to obey Me, and to trust Me completely, and allow Me to finish what I have begun.

You shall not fear any earthly news that comes to your ears. You shall not fear any man that speaks contrary to that which I have spoken to you to do, or to be. You shall not listen to anyone that contradicts what is written in My Word. You shall not walk with mockers, or  scoffers, or unbelievers. If you listen to their voices, and take your eyes off of Me, then they will lead you astray entirely. This cannot be! What have I commanded you? I am a Covenant Keeping God, and I never forsake My Children that are obedient to Me. What will you have Me be, your friend and Lord, or your enemy? Those who rebel against Me and who will not walk in My Commandments are My enemy. I will have a People that love Me entirely, that fear My Name, and that desire to walk with Me fully.

I am at work, testing and trying every heart, and measuring their faith in Me, and I am working to bring them closer to Me. I am building My House, and it will be filled with the ones that truly believe with all of their hearts, with all of their minds, and with all of their strength. I will have a House full of Living Stones, that are wholly given to Me. So, give yourself completely to Me, and to My Will for your life. I never fail, nor do I ever lie. I am Faithful and I always keep My Promises. I will bring you through each step of the way, if you will let Me have My full way, and if you will wholeheartedly obey everything I say. Rise up in faith, Children, and see Me for who I am! I am the Great and Mighty God, the I AM!

I am here to deliver you from every fear, from every trial, from every weight and chain, and from all sources of pain. Will you embrace Me in this hour, or will you struggle on in your attempts to control the power? Are you in control of your destiny, or am I? Believe in Me, and know that I am more than able to lead you, and to cause you to walk in liberty, in peace, and in the full Knowledge of Me. I want you to be an instrument of faith for Me. I want you to strengthen your brothers. I want you to build up My People. I want you to show them who I am in your midst. It is time that My Name and My Glory be seen through your obedience and faith in Me. When people look at you, do they see you and your fears and struggles or do they see Me? Have faith in Me and you shall see My Glory all around you, even for eternity.

Joshua 1:7 Only be strong (vigorous) and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go. 8 This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."

Deuteronomy 7:21 You shall not be in dread of them, for the LORD your God is in your midst, a great and awesome God.

Deuteronomy 10:17 For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords,  the great, the mighty, and the awesome God, who is not partial and takes no bribe.

Deuteronomy 31:8 It is the LORD who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed."

Luke 8:50 But Jesus, on hearing this, answered him, Do not be seized with alarm or struck with fear; simply believe [ in Me as able to do this], and she shall be made well.

Nehemiah 1:5 And I said, "O LORD God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments,

Numbers 14:14 They have heard that you, O LORD, are in the midst of this people. For you, O LORD, are seen face to face, and your cloud stands over them and you go before them, in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night.

John 16:8 And when He comes, He will convict and convince the world and bring demonstration to it about sin and about righteousness (uprightness of heart and right standing with God) and about judgment: 9About sin, because they do not believe in Me [trust in, rely on, and adhere to Me];

1 John 3:22 and whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him. 23 And this is his commandment, that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us. 24 Whoever keeps his commandments abides in God, and God in him. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit whom he has given us.
