Yesterday while looking online I noticed that it said something about Jennifer Hudson’s family being involved in a homicide. The news was not sure of more details at the time. This morning I turn on the news to see that yes her mother and brother were killed; her nephew has been kidnapped as well. This is a horrible thing to happen to woman who has seemed to have some success in her life. All I can say is that I hope that they find the boy and who ever did this to her family.
I have been trying to read up more on the positions that Obama and McCain take with taxes. I have said I like Obama.
One of the reasons I do like him is about healthcare. I know that there are downsides to having a universal heath care system. There are many downfalls I can see with it ,such as being told you have to accept one type of treatment or it wont be covered or that there will be longer waits to receive treatment. I just feel like if we are able to establish some kind of health care system that is across the board that almost anyone can afford we can make better health care to all people not just the ones who have really good health care. I don’t want to see those people that like the health care they have lose it ;I just want to see people who don’t have it and are not able to get the public aid insurance at least have some type of medical coverage. I also believe that health care needs to be centered around preventive health instead of rehabilitation of preventive health care crisis that happen to people.
I was saying about the taxes though. I see that Obama wants to give tax breaks to anyone who makes under 250’000 which is a lot of people, but it also seems like a lot of people that don’t pay taxes already. The people getting the tax breaks already get a lot of tax incentives it seems to me. The more I read it seems that the people who do already pay taxes are the one that may be hurt by his tax plan. So in my quest to see which person is more fair in the department of taxes I am now thinking I may have been a little wrong. Not that the tax reason alone is why I chose my vote. I just don’t think it is fair for people who do work hard and make good money to be paying for people who make less to get back more money that they didn’t put out. I don’t think that we need to “redistribute the wealth”.
Something I think does need to happen is big wig companies need to down scale the amount of money that the CEO’s are making; and the amount of money that the people trickling down from the CEOs are making.
Some of these people in these positions make millions of dollars while the consumer is footing the bill. I feel like that needs to stop. I think a candidate needs a plan called “leveling the playing field for everyone”. I don’t want to take away from these people who earn these positions who also go to school and work hard but it is greed. People do not need that much money to live.
I wish I had more time for school than I do now; I would take a political science class. It is strange but now that I am there I can’t see me stopping the learning possess. When I graduate I will just try and pay to attend classes at my leisure because I truly enjoy it.
Well I am getting past the sadness I felt. I feel like he is right..I Need this and more. This time that I now have I need to take and turn inside , really look at who I am where I have come from what I can do with my life and where I need to take it. I need to examine what changes I still need to make to get to where I know I truly can and should be. I can’t say I am happy about my not being able to talk to him at all. It is kind of crazy but I am also happy about it …I really dont need to talk to anyone. I need to talk to me. Not cvo, not my mom , not the friend(who I really don’t share much with anyway so they don’t really count), just me….I need to turn inward and pull out that woman I see hunched down in the corner still and pull her up and help her to her feet. Yeah maybe on the outside all the people around me think I have , but they don’t really know me.
Maybe I shouldn’t say she is kneeling in the corner.. Maybe she is standing in the dark room still looking in the corner. Scared of just turning around, dumb isn’t it. It is hard to do this with everything I have going on, but I also feel like I can make this happen. It is like I said about being reborn again. I am going to have to really take time now and develop and grow me and the go through the painstaking possess of being brought back out into the world naked, alone, and screaming while it is happening. When it is all done maybe I will emerge this new woman. The woman I see I can be …she is just standing waiting for me in the room and only I can give her the light she needs to see , the hand she needs to hold to get out of the room, and the strength she needs to succeed. I will no longer try and worry about the end result, but try and worry about the creation of this person that I can be.
