Spammers zombiestat and vampirestat

I just found out that vampirestat and zombiestat are spammers attempting to generate more traffic for their own purposes. Isn’t it disgusting that people such as this exist. From which rat infested hole do they come? Don’t they respect anyone or anything? People like this belong in jail because they are merely thieves .

Stop and Go Economy

Markets are spinning downward today, with the DJIA off about 150 points. All 10 S&P sectors are down, too. Even Wal-Mart Stores dove nearly 2%.

Does this mean the rush to buy stocks has ended?

Economic Recovery?

The media tells us that the economy is recovering. However, the average number of jobs added over the past four years is 151,000 people per month, and GDP is averaging 2.2%.
The average number of new entrants into the workforce each month is 125,000 to 150,000. GDP needs to grow at greater than 3% to create enough jobs to get us out of this malaise. In addition, the GDP growth is an illusion created by Federal Reserve policies.

The question: When will we see an economic recovery that helps the middle class family in America?

Hurricane Sandy

Because I live in Florida, I understand how a hurricane can affect you. I wish all those in the Mid-Atlantic and New England states the best during the next couple of days. Many of you will experience power outages, have trees fall on your houses, and some will lose life and property. Ihope you have a speedy recovery.

Here' a link to weather.com for those who would like an update on the storm.

Fall Springs in South Florida

Fall Springs in South Florida

The past two days reminded me of falling leaves and how comfortable it feels in the fall when you live up north. At least it felt that way early in the morning before the sun made it too hot because the temperature rises to the low eighties by noontime at the latest.

People form the North tends to miss the change of seasons. Some even move back because they miss the seasonal variety, but I can’t say that it bothers me that much. The last time I flew north in December, 19 inches of snow and a six-degree temperature numbed my body and soul and prompted me to never leave Sunny South Florida after November 15^th again.

Most people that live in Florida weren’t born here, and that will change as the next generation comes to the area and the population continues to expand. The pristine beauty that was Florida decades ago no longer exists. Industry replaced tourism as the permanent population grew.   

According to the Census Bureau, Florida’s population nears 20 million, as it grows at a rapid pace, as indicated in the graph:

The only issue to ponder is how long can this continue.
