Social Security
For the first time in history, this Democratic Congress has cancelled an increase in the Social Security cost of living adjustment - COLA). In fact, The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation predicts there will not be any COLA in 2011, or 2012 as well.
However, the per person monthly Medicare insurance premium will be increased from the 2009 premium of $96.40 to $104.20 in 2010 (approx $8.00 increase) and to $120.20 in 2011 (an addt'l $16.00 increase), the 2012…

In the former, the local ACORN Housing Corp. office received contracts worth a combined $625,000 from the City of New Orleans for repairing existing low-income housing and developing new units in poor neighborhoods.

10/01/2009
With the major debate in this country revolving around health care, we harken back to six months ago when our country was embroiled in mass hysteria over the swine flu (H1N1). News media outlets across the country reported daily on how many people had contracted and died from the virus, almost anyone who had a fever and was sneezing had been swabbed and was awaiting lab test results, and surgical masks were in…

A “perplexing” Canadian study linking H1N1 to seasonal flu shots is throwing national influenza plans into disarray and testing public faith in the government agencies responsible for protecting the nation's health.
Distributed for peer review last week, the study confounded infectious-disease experts in suggesting that people vaccinated against seasonal flu are twice as likely to catch swine flu.
The paper is under peer review, and lead researchers Danuta Skowronski of…
