Okay so I have been mulling this over and over and would like some outside opinions. I understand as a people we should help others (A Christian Value) but at the expense of our own people? I'm not comfortable about that. See when our own country cant afford to give its own people Medical Insurance like Canada does, or offer dental health to those who cant afford it, or stop homelessness, or give them shelter then I think America has an issue. If all these things were here for us, then yes I can see helping outside countries. It seems America "Land of The Free" wants to give "freely" to all people worldwide and let its own people suffer. Thats where I draw the line. And worst yet when New Orleans had to be rebuilt for the umteen time.....that just blew my mind! Why would you continously waste money to rebuild something that is nortorious for massive hurricanes every few years?!
Why live in areas called tornadoe alley when every year mass destruction occurs and millions if not billions go to rebuild so in a another year we can spend it all over again and watch thousands die.
This logic just dumbfounds me beyond contempt!
It seems America is always the first to pour out money to look good but 99% of the time those we help can't even help themselves to begin with. Yet we will rebuild their homes, provide food and medical care, for nothing in return but a thank you, a handshake, and tears of joy for getting a new home and food.
When it comes down to it, if war came to our land countries like Haiti couldnt do anything to help us, 90% of the countries we help wouldnt. If China invades America we're screwed, every country could step up and we'd still lose. But if China had a catastrophy we'd be the first to help them....URGH!
I see sites everywhere popping up and major companies giving away money to Haiti right now, yet if you or i asked for help they'd laugh at us. Like we're not worthy of help. We have to have a horriffic, destructive, mass natural element destroys us first, then instead of just helping for nothing, insurance companies come in and raise our rates for it, builders jack up prices to rebuild it and and hospitals treat those with great insurance as if they are kings and queens. But the poor sap without medical insurance is left in the hallway and glanced at as if they are the coroners next job.
Again where is the logic in this society?
Our goverment complains we're in a constant defisit, and cant figure out where any money is, well hello its in every other country you've been helping, its in the pockets of congressmen and goverment leaders, and major corporations you fools. All things "we as a people" cant control that our "fore fathers" said we could!
This economy crunch is a farse, I think its a way for major controling companies and goverment to make more gains for themselves and further reduce its middle class to rubble. Force us to get less pay for more work and destroy credit ratings, and forbid those who deserve loans from getting out from under the whales belly. And dont get me started with the War in Iraq! It's all BS. And the fact we destroy their buildings then go back and rebuild them is ludicrous to me. When we dropped the bomb on Hiroshima did we go back and rebuild the whole fracking city? NO! War is destruction not "Oh sorry lets fix that for you, afterall it was our bad"
And where the Hell is Osama bin Laden? I bet our goverment knows, no man can hide with all the technology thats out their, their probably feeding him, housing him and using what should be my medical insurance. And when something goes wrong they have a guinea pig to blame it on.
Twin Towers...please if you are so gullible to believe it was a terrorist act from the east you dont deserve to breathe the same air as me. The goverment set it all up, they knew exactly what to use to put fear in the American people, come on wake up people hell i knew back in 1970 what could bring the towers down. Duh a huge ass plane! I was only 10 yrs. old then. Think about it, if terrorists really wanted to do mass damage why would they do it at 8:46 and 9:05am? Hell, I would've waited till 11:00 am when most employees and the building was totally full, or at the latest 2:00 after lunchtime. Terrorists arent stupid!
Personally I think it was just a way to justify the continuation of war in the east, to get more american soldiers fired up to go risk their lives.
And what about our vets who come home, psychologically destroyed and struck with so called "Illness" thats not untreatable (from the chems they use in warfare)?
My point is humans are not the most intelligent creatures on the Earth. Which is really sad to realize in life.
So you better hope their is a God cause frankly, if i were him I would be so disgusted with this creation called mankind. I can only hope he brings forth a "revised version of mankind" along with a new earth. No wonder the Earth is revolting against us.
Do yourself a favor watch:
www.history.com/content/life_after_people on the HISTORY Channel it has amazing shows which shows how if man was removed from the Earth how she would reverts back to its natural state...sure it takes 10,000 years but she is amazing!
And as for War, do me a favor get some rich ass guy to buy an island and have your wars on it, last man standing wins, instead of letting innocent civilians get killed and destroy cities....stupid morons!
I have to go take a hot bathe to cool down, this subject justs get me so riled up!

Deadliest Traffic Jam
On the highway of twists and turns, where patrols set traps and commuter traffic is always congested we just pray the blockage will just soon pass without a hitch. But more often than not those slow downs, delays and sirens heard off in the distance are usually forewarning us theirs trouble up ahead. But most just crank up the radio and sing along to the tune or take a cat nap knowing eventually the jam will dissolve and pass.
Sound familiar? It should you have a highway hidden within you that is about 25 feet long! Your intestines!
I know... touchy subject, well at least for a majority of us it is! Let's step back a minute and see if we remember our biology...The small intestine is divided into 3 sections: upper, jejunum, and ileum. The lining of the small intestine secretes a hormone called secretin, which stimulates the pancreas to produce digestive enzymes.The large intestine has a larger width but is only 5 feet long. The large intestine is divided into 6 parts: cecum, ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and rectum. Whew!
Now if you eat perfectly throughout life these connected sections should never give you a problem but lets face it 99% of humans don't, and the pesticides, agricultural farming and added hormones don't help either.
Most of us eat crappy diets but do you pour bacon fat down your kitchen drain? No! At least you better not otherwise, your septic tank is going to need service very soon or backup and flood your backyard. So why do we continue to eat that double-patty hamburger with cheese, mayo, special sauce, and bacon ... which has 160 calories, 10 grams of fat, and 370 mg of sodium? Oh I see, convenience right? Or how about that yummy pizza every weekend? Meat Lover's: 890 calories, 49 grams of fat. The fact is that society lost its way a long time ago. And to try and maintain a healthy diet is nearly impossible these days. Sure you can be a vegan or a vegetarian but in every short cut or avoidance of proteins or flesh is another misfire in the chambers of your pistons.
All these problems can be seen obviously if we just look back and check to see what our exhaust pipe left behind. We think of ourselves as indestructible in our youth, even into our 20's but behind the scenes future scenarios are setting stage, little twangs and pings are generating enough gas to light a fire under your a**, so stop ignoring things!
Everybody always laugh when someone says "Yeah corn goes in and comes out the same", ever really wonder why? Well i did some research and here's what I found out. Man in primitive times had large molars and incisors and they chewed there food much better, they also were adapted to eating a lot more plant matter than meat. So through evolution our digestive tracts have also changed. Eating corn isn't really natural for us, eating corn only came about a few thousand years ago, we ate maize a lot but it is mashed. So our digestive track can use it and pass it along in this form. Plus we have much smaller teeth than primitive man did and we generally do not chew our foods well, so while some kernels are chewed many are just swallowed instead.
Here is a mini list of foods that are extremely hard on our digestive track:
Corn
Cow's milk (Lactose)
Broccoli
Hydrogenated oils
Processed meat
Red Meat
Gluten
Pepper (doesn't digest, but tastes great)
Does your poop smell? Does your partner/wife have to open a window after you've been in the bathroom? Does your dog hide under the furniture in fear of being blamed for that smell? Then honey you've got a problem! Your poop shouldn't smell, fact is if it's gooey, sticky, slimy, smelly, it's unhealthy! If it looks like a deer has been in your house then you are not consuming enough fiber or water! Constipation? means problems related to stress and diet. Runny?, you either have some sort of infection or illness, or may have consumed something that your body doesn't like. Does it take forever?, this isn't necessarily bad. Some folks just have slow pipes. Ideally, you’ll have a bowel movement daily around the same time. But there are some people who simply don’t, yet they’re healthy. If it hurts, barring a legitimate health condition, there again you may simply not be getting enough fiber and water in your diet.
It seems many symptoms are related to fiber and water. I know this has been a major issue throughout my lifetime, well at least since I left home at the age of 15. I never really pooped on a daily basis, I figured maybe I just used up everything that went in, or because I couldn't afford food much in my early days, my body just couldn't sacrifice letting go of anything. I got polyps by late 20's. How I knew I had a polyp was because I always look behind and accounted for everything coming out and noticed an indentation along the side of my bowel movement and had some pain while doing so. It turned out and I thankfully spoke to my doctor who later confirmed this.I had diverticulitis many times in my thirties.
My grandmother died of colon cancer. So now if i feel symptomatic I know I need fiber and water a.s.a.p. and generally have been able to keep them under control. In between those I also had IBS(Irritable Bowel Syndrome) And because I suffered these aliments so early it is also a warning sign that I am a prime candidate for colon cancer partly because of my lack of knowledge and hereditary is playing a role in this.
Seriously if unattended, or not nurtured, it will be your last traffic jam in life. Because ugly little things like Colon Cancer, Diverticulitis, Polyps, feed on your poor judgments in consumption and some of these are simply hereditary so please check with your families and beware of the possibilities of what your future may hold for you.
Helpful Info to Memorize:
Diverticulitis:
Common signs and symptoms of Diverticulitis is pain that's often sudden, severe, and located in the lower left side of the abdomen. Less commonly, abdominal pain may be mild at first, and become worse over several days, possibly fluctuating in intensity, Change in bowel habits, Abdominal tenderness,
Fever, Nausea and vomiting, Constipation, Diarrhea,
Less common signs and symptoms of diverticulitis may include: Bloating, Bleeding from your rectum
Colon Polyps
A polyp is a growth that occurs in the colon and other organs. These growths, or fleshy tumors, are shaped like a mushroom or a dome-like button, and occur on the inside lining of the colon. They may be as small as a tiny pea or larger than a plum. Colon polyps start out as benign tumors but in time may become malignant. The larger the polyp, the more likely it is to contain cancer cells.
IBS: Symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome is characterized by a group of symptoms in which abdominal pain or discomfort is associated with a change in bowel pattern, such as loose or more frequent bowel movements, diarrhea, and/or constipation. Some specific symptoms are: stool frequency (may be defined as greater than 3 bowel movements per day and less than 3 bowel movements per week),Abnormal stool form (lumpy/hard or loose/watery stool). Abnormal stool passage (straining, urgency, or feeling of incomplete evacuation)Passage of mucus, Bloating or feeling of abdominal distension.
Irritable bowel syndrome is one of the most common ailments of the intestines and affects an estimated 15% of the United States population. It is the most common disease diagnosed by doctors.
Crohn's Disease,
The most common symptoms of Crohn's disease are: loss of appetite, abdominal pain, often in the lower right area, joint pain, fatigue, green stool, sores around the anal area and diarrhea. Sometimes rectal bleeding, weight loss, and fever may occur. Bleeding may be serious and persistent, leading to anemia.
Also called ileitis or regional enteritisis or colitis, is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the general name for diseases that cause inflammation in the intestines.
These are just a few I know of, so run a search for the symptoms you're having and you can usually find the info to lead you in the right direction, as always talk to your personal physician. Dont ever feel embarrassed we all have butts and a little pain to check a problem out now might just safe your life!
