Washington Insiders

Apparently, Obama has elected more people with Washington Experience than Bush in the economic team. This is before every spot is filled.

This is very surprising to have run on promises to not run Washington as usual.

Well, that's another broken promise for the count!

Obama, Obama, Obama

Everytime that I get a chance to check the news, online, on the tely, or writen in the newspapers,
"Obama has a economic plan!"
"Massive Economic Recovery Eyed"
"Obama will 'do what's necessary' to fix economy"

All I got to say is,
Good luck fulfilling those expectations! I really do hope that Obama does get us out as soon as possible and safely, but I do not see it logically happening under his policies.

His policies of protectionism, isolationism, welfare, tax cuts for the people that don't pay taxes, and others, will not solve this crisis.

Bailout Detroit? Part III

Apparently, the government has decided to wait until December to vote on the bailout. They would like to have the Big 3 explain on where the funds would go towards.

This is after they heard that the three CEOs traveled from Detroit in Corporate jets costing quite a bit of money.

Pirates; The Solution

Pirates are a problem around Africa, Indonesia, and South America especially in the recent years. We are not talking about Captain Kid, or Sparrow, but modern gangs that have corrupted the local governments and taking over massive cargo and freight ships worth hundreds of millions.

Over the last couple of days, Blackwater, a military private contractor, bought a boat and a crew to help protect these ships. They will organize the ships into fleets to intimidate the pirates.

The US takes on the same policy with the pirates as they do with terrorists, do not negotiate. There should be no compromises with these and that the harbors around the hot spots of pirating should be inspected and gone through to get rid of the threat, while at the same time issuing humanitarian aid so that this way of life should not be an option.
