Today's Headlines

'Should Casey Anthony face death penalty? ' Yes, of course she should. It's hard to believe that there are people out there who would say no to that. Yeah, everyone deserves the right to a fair trial and by all means give her one, but definitely base it on the fact that if convicted, she gets the death penalty. It's only fair.

'Last of Nadya Suleman's octuplets leaves hospital.' Who gives a shit. She's just in it for the publicity and frankly I wish I could opt out of financially supporting her and the 14 kids that will never get as much parental attention as they deserve. Those kids should be placed in the homes and arms of people who will love, care and provide for them, not the media attention they attract.

'We think: Don't rob the future.' Precisely. Cutting back on school funding, firing teachers and even closing schools, is NOT the right way to handle the situation. The people in this state (and most of the country as well) are retarded. I blame the educational system. No one cares to educate anymore. The school boards seem to be run by a bunch of greedy good for nothings out to cut everything as long as it isn't their own pay. Basically politicians. I’d like to know who decided that providing a strong education for the next generation should be put on the back burner. At this rate, the country as a whole will rot even faster as a result of current practices and proposed implementations.

Something else to ponder on throughout your day: If we are only allowed to water on certain days of the week to save on water consumption, why aren't those philosophies the same for printing money? Why are we not conserving the value of the American dollar? We print and print and print till our hearts content, which by the way is never enough, and our monetary value is fading fast as a result. Printing trillions of dollars to bail out the economy is only contributing to the problem. Why do we need to save companies who weren’t smart enough to survive on their own? Why not let them fail and make room for the ones who were prepared? There are already a billion insurance companies, banks and retail chains out there. Personally, when this is all said and done, I'd rather be banking with a company that had no problem surviving the recession. Reason being: I know that if they can take care of themselves, without asking for handouts, the people running the show are doing a damn good job and my money is safe there.

On a totally unrelated note (that I thought you should also think about): It is my belief that the people out there creating computer viruses and worms are just as malicious as the ones who contract AIDS, find out about it, and decide to sleep with everyone they possibly can just out of spite.
