American Political Decisions

The main trouble with American politics is not the politicians. It is the AMERICAN PEOPLE, they continue to elect Wealthy IDIOTS, Ex-Actors and Supposed Football heroes instead of people with ability.

American People are also to blame for your abysmal education system, Egocentric attitudes that AMERICA is always the Biggest, Best, Brashest doesn’t help. It is time to realise that USA needs to actually be taught some home truths.

Newsflash
Not all Americans have a GOOD education.
Not all Americans have a GOOD job.
Not all Americans have good health care.
Not all Americans get a FAIR deal from idiotic governments.
America has a MASSIVE National DEBT. It is far from being the wealthiest country.
America does not need to meddle in international politics, when it has no effective internal political structure.
BUT the Biggest Home TRUTH.
AMERICA is not the BOSS of the WORLD.
USA is NOT the only country in the world.

In 1776 Americans rose up in revolution to fight the oppressive political system and control of the IDIOTS (British Monarchy) in control at that time.

Now the only thing Americans do is whinge on the internet via blogs, forums and chatrooms or listen to idiot TV/RADIO shows like Larry King. Instead join a politic party or interest group. Be proactive not complacent. Remember the famous Abraham Lincoln speech at Gettysburg does not mention POLITICIANS
Quote:

and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth

Big Boat Blunders and Silly Sailing Schemes

So young Jessica decided to try and sail around the World solo. Too bad only a few hours into the voyage, near one of the two Stradbroke Islands (I do not know which Island, there is actually North and South) she was hit by a bulk carrier and de-masted. Damn lucky she was not killed. Living on Russell Island, less than 3KMs from North Stradbroke Island, I know exactly the amount of Maritime traffic this region gets.

When will people be called accountable for their ill-advised decisions in life.

  • 16 is TOO young to drive in most countries, so why is it OK for authorities to allow her to sail in busy shipping lanes.
  • Solo yacht adventures are by their very nature dangerous. Even 30 year sailing veterans would have difficulties doing a solo trip.
  • 16year old girl being attacked by Indian Ocean Pirates is not the sort of NEWS story anyone wants to see. Pirates are willing to attack heavily armed merchant vessels. A single young girl that has advertised to the world her intended route is asking for trouble
  • Freedom of choice does not apply when people make stupid, silly life-endangering decisions.
  • Any parent that would even consider allowing this type of foolhardy adventuring needs counseling or arresting. This is child endangerment and reckless behaviour in most Criminal CODES
  • News Media needs to be blamed for a lot of this stupidity. Channel TEN Digital Station ONE HD is one of the sponsors.

Building Beautiful Big Blogs

If you have read my early post about templates, you would know I am now designing lots of new templates.

My blogs and indeed all my sites are getting a much needed makeover.
My beautiful wife has been a great help, designing some nice blog templates especially the current one on this blog. Decisions will be featuring several of these blog templates. The current template (as at 10th Sept 2009) features a header photo that I took some 4 years ago just outside the small country town of Guyra NSW,

Also as part of the refreshing new look to Decisions will be many more posts on various subjects. Always though on the central theme of decisions and their consequences.
