& what do you feel is their most hypercritical statement or action?

I'm a Small Biz Owner, we've hung in there over the last 2 years, but just as I thought we were going to enter the recovery... all the music stopped-

How are you doing in your industry?

I don't understand why we can't simplify our tax code and just do a flat tax across the board-

Remove the deductions and loop holes and just do the easy math X% of Gross Income = tax rate- Simple and transparent-

I think if everyone paid we would all pay less?

The slogan Fair & Balanced?

or Had it coming?

I keep seeing post of people talking about it being cheaper for their employer pay the penalty than keep them insured- or people worried about their employer dropping them-

I'm a small biz owner- I don't have to insure anyone- as far as I know, no employer does

It's an employee benefit- and could it could be taken away at any time for any reason-

I would love to insure my staff but between the recession and raising premiums I can't afford to- Hopefully this bill grants us access to an affordable option-

we have a higher infant mortality rate than Cuba-

Cuba can barely even get new car parts yet they seem to have a medical system that is producing better results ours is.

My Cousin's wife is a Saudi Arabian Citizen but has lived here for the past 15+ years. They met in Med School and they were planning their wedding ceremony. They had not told her parents about the engagement, and when they brought it up the Mother did not approve.

Time went by and the Mother claimed to have come to terms with the situation and asked her to come back to Saudi for a bridal shower, but not long after she got there her Mother took all of her travel document and since then she has kept her as a prisioner in their home.

Since weomen can't drive in Saudi and she's basically property of her paernts in the eyes of the Saudi Govt. She can't just go get a new passport with out her Fathers approval and he's not giving it.

My Cousin and his Wife had actually already gotten a civil marriage prior to this whole thing and were just using the ceremony as their public celebration of their marriage.

So now my Cousin's wife trapped in Saudi Arabia, and has been for over 6 months what can he do to get her home?
