Be Charitable This Holiday, Invest In The USA
- by Holly
I have heard from many people this year that they have decided that instead of handing out gifts to the adult relatives they have, they will donate what they would have spent on them to a charity. There are many charities to choose from, but have you thought about a charity that would also be an investment and help the US economy. There is a program that does just that and you can help by donateing money that will go toward the Rebuilding of America.
This program will provide jobs to the hurting construction industry by getting projects going that have been stopped due to the economy. The best part is it’s only $20 to participate and it is for a really good cause. Helping the people of our country get back on their feet so that eventually we can help others in need to.
If your still not sure about this I suggest you check out the letter from the CEO of Rebuilding of America. It explains everything in great detail and really gets you an inside look at what this man is trying to accomplish. The letter also explains how they take steps to protect your money so that you will not lose any of it. The best part is profits are divided annually and after 5 years you can get your original investment back and leave the project, if you don’t want to then you can invest for another 5 years. Not a bad deal and it will bring us the change and prosperity this country needs.

Racism In America
- by Holly
The other day I was watching the news and they had a thing about blacks in America and how this election could bring about more problems that do good. It seems that many blacks figure that nothing is going to change. I remember hearing one man I went to school with talk about how the only way that a black is going to make it in the world is to act white. Now personaly I take offence to this as not every white acts the same, many try to act “black” in some peoples eyes.
Here is what I think. We are all human, there is no difference we act how we act. Obama is acting like a politicion. He speeks well and dresses well. How is that not acting like a person. Apparently some blacks think it’s a problem for a black person to speek and dress well? Give me a break! Now before you go off on me wondering why I’m rasist, I’m not. I’m just stateing an obvouse thing here. It seems that whenever a black person makes it by haveing these attributes other blacks feel they have to put them down. This also happends with white people. Mostly when a “white trash” person makes it big.
One person I know said something that would work for any race, “If black people would stop complaining I wouldn’t hate them so much, they are annoying!” Now replace black with any other race and it still fits. We all have our issues and concerns. I think instead of making it a black vs white issue maybe we should just make it a whole society issue. Once we can stop reverencing people as a race and as fellow American citizens maybe something good will actually be accomplished.

Walmart losses exclusive right to smiley
- by Holly
I tend to defend Walmart usually. Lately though they seem to be doing some stupid things corporate wise and even talking to some former co-workers it seems they they 
are starting locally to live up to their reputation. I did find out more about that women and I think walmart needs to shove it up their butt and leave her alone. It seems that as the economy gets worse so does the business practices of corporate America.
Anyway now I have found out they were trying to say they have exclusive rights to their smiley. That stupid it’s a smiley face that has been around a lot longer then they have had it. I’m happy to hear there was a judge thinking clearly and he decided that the smiley was not just Walmart’s, but available to everyone.
