12-11-09: Oversight Productions "Bank of America and Merrill Lynch: How did a Private Deal Turn Into a Federal Bailout?" Part V
This is the VOA Special English Economics Report, from voaspecialenglish.com A major reform of the American system of health care and insurance has moved farther in Congress than ever before. President Obama wants a final bill passed by the end of the year. But a difficult road still lies ahead. On November seventh, the House of Representatives passed a bill with an estimated trillion-dollar price over ten years. The president called the vote historic. President Obama said the Affordable Health Care for America Act will provide stability and security for Americans who have insurance. It will provide quality affordable options for those who dont. And it will bring down the cost of health care for families, business and the government while strengthening the financial health of Medicare. But thirty-nine Democrats voted no, and only one Republican, Joseph Cao of Louisiana, voted yes. The bill passed with just two more votes than required. Republicans say the plan would add to the nation's debt, raise insurance costs and expand government involvement in health care. Republican Representative Joe Barton from Texas said "So, there is a choice. Bigger government, more mandates, more control, less freedom. Or lower costs, more opportunity, more freedom or more choice. I vote for more freedom." The bill aims to provide health coverage to thirty-six million Americans. That would raise the nation's coverage rate to about ninety-six percent. The most disputed part of the bill is a ...

PacMan and Skateboard Mom skate Ellsworth Drive in DTSS testing to see if security tries to tell us we can't skate...on public property. Tony Cao, filmer. DTSS security has been kicking out skateboarders from Ellsworth Drive for years. But the property manager for this development has stated clearly in the press, that Ellsworth Drive is public space, and in the same Gazette.net article a representative from Montgomery County Police Department confirmed that. Question: Why is a private company attempting to control public space? Since Ellsworth Drive is public space, what law, or laws, is DTSS basing their prohibition of skating on? They can't legally restrict skating just because they don't want people to skate there -- there needs to be a legal basis for restricting any behavior, including skating, on public property.
