A WEEK OF NEWS
* Death from Swine Flu is up over 1,000 for the week. There is an
85 percent increase in Europe.
......
* Dubai - the once mighty rich Arab land is in hot economic
trouble - a debt of 60 BILLION, yes with a "B" - has effects
around the world.
......
* Now fully revealed from an insider - Iran is ruled by the
Revolutionary Guard - a Military dictatorship.
......
* Iran comes under fire from most nations of the world, but its
move to nuclear might continues.
......
* Diamond market is down - but Russia hold a very large supply of
the glittering gem.
......
* China's economy hits 10 percent growth and looks like it will
speed off even more so in 2010. Car buying in China is like a
rocket-ship to the moon - GM and VW doing very well in that
nation.
......
* The Cadbury "takeover" is on-going with some world famous names
bidding for the chocolate.
......

There is talk it may not have been an accident.
......
* A couple, supposedly NOT invited, dinner crashed and got to
meet President Obama, at a State political dinner. Some say this
and some say that - I guess it will all come out in the
investigative wash.
......
* Hunger in the USA is sky high. 40 percent of all food produced
in the USA is THROWN out! Many now on U.I. cannot feed their
children three meals a day. Many more now going to the "soup
kitchen" for some of their meals. I know it, I know it, I've been
on that road, 12 years ago, so know that road. Was not on it for
very long, but long enough to know what it is like.
......
* A Salvation Army bucket (you see them on the street corners at
this time of the year) - finds one solid gold special coin in its
take, worth $175,000. One "no name" generous giver. We all need
to give to worthwhile charities, as we are blessed.
......
* Now get this! On "60 Minutes" last Sunday evening, was the fact
based mini documentary on "Death" in the USA. Fact one - 75
percent of people dying, die in the Hospital, or Nursing Homes.
You get into the hospital and it is usually test after test after
test, even when your about dead. Hospitals want to be full and
they want MONEY! Money keeps hospitals alive (excuse the pun). 85
percent of the money for these test after test, comes from the
GOVERNMENT or PRIVATE INSURANCE. As some experts interviewed
said, runaway doing hospital business, like this, will eventually
BANKRUPT the nation. As other experts said, it must be rationed
unless such working hospitals around the nation, clean up their act.
One important fellow they interviewed (he's employed by the Feds
to see how we are off the track on various health care matters
like this "going to hospital to die" stuff) said: "We need to
acknowledge we are MORTAL - death will happen to us - and we need
to look at respectful death."
In other words, when you are in your 80s or 90s you better know
you will die. You end up in hospital near death, and the hospital
acts like you should be immortal - do this test and that test,
and another test, as many as you can, before the patient dies, so
you can bill the Government or Private Insurance, so the Hospital
can stay alive. We are often trying to keep people alive when we
should be allowing them a respectful death.
It was not just the greedy Wall Street guys that brought on the
recession. We have greedy Hospital guys, greedy this worker and
that worker. As the saying goes "Only in the United States of
America" and "What you sow you will reap."
It seems in the USA more and more want "freedom" for EVERYTHING
so they can DO ANYTHING. The mentality that goes around the USA
as if any "regulation" on something is akin to "communism" is the
craziest mind-set. God's word says that true freedom is under LAW
and order. The nations needs to get back to God's law and
government, which means the people will be taught to view things
with moral dignity and common sense, and not take advantage of
Government dollars, which are tax-payer dollars.
So you Hospitals out there that want to test and test and re-test
the dead .... give me a break, get out of the way and let the
dead die. God will give them LIFE again one day in a
resurrection.
