People's

I was sitting in fast food restaurant in Eastern Connecticut a week or so ago when I looked out the window at the mall across the street and was startled to see this disturbing sign:

"People's United Bank".


Well, that's it, I thought. The Obama plan to turn the country Socialist has finally come to fruition.

Upon further investigation my friends at Google and I discovered these corporate entities:

  • People's United Financial, Inc.
  • People's Bancorporation, Inc.
  • People's Educational Holdings, Inc.
  • The People's Gas Light and Coke Company
  • Music For Little People
  • People's Drug Mart
  • People's Garment Public Company Limited
  • People Magazine

And the list goes on and on!

The remarkable thing is that so many of these "People's" companies are banks and investment firms. Banks and investment firms are supposed to be about Capitalism. What the hell does that have to do with The People?

A couple of these are far more disturbing than the others.

That one called "Music For Little People" sends shivers down my spine. Once the government gets its hands on our music and our kids, well, turn out the lights, the party's over.

And what about "The Peoples Gas Light and Coke Company"?

What are we going to do when the government takes over our light and soft drinks?

All I can say is God help you if you drink Pepsi, Comrade.

Obama-dental

There has been so much discussion about the president's health care reform that not much attention has been paid to the dental component.

There is one disturbing feature. Apparently the plan will pay for a consultation with a dental professional so you can "plan" your dental care. These so-called "Tooth Panels" will decide who gets a filling and who doesn't.

I'm sorry, but that sounds like something they might do in England. Have you seen their teeth? Courtesy of the National Health!

Come on, people. We've got to nip this in the bud!

Let's not pull the teeth on Grandma!

A lot of people don't know about the dental coverage reform plan, but you can get more info here.

When Life Gives You Lemons...


The unemployment rate is way up and frequently people have to find new lines of work after losing a job. This was brought starkly home to me a couple of weeks ago when I was out for a late afternoon stroll.

It was hot and I was thirsty so I was gratified to see a small table on the sidewalk with a handwritten sign reading "Lemonade". Usually these ad hoc beverage vending centers are staffed by 8 or 9 year old girls with happy faces and optimistic demeanors, but in this case the person sitting behind the table was a middle aged man wearing a plaid sport coat, polyester slacks, and white shoes. He saw me eying the condensation-coated pitcher sitting on the table and stood up. He had a smile that made me unconsciously pat my wallet to make sure it was still in my pocket.

"Thirsty?" he said.

"Yep. It's a hot one. How much?"

"Well, what kind of budget do you have?"

"A budget for lemonade?" I puzzled.

He took out a small pad of paper and a pencil. "I'm going to write a number down and you tell me if this is a payment you can live with."

"Payment..." I glance at the paper - "...$199 for lemonade? Are you crazy?"

"That includes zero percent financing, but I might be able to do better. I'll have to talk to my manager. He's delivering a pizza, but he'll be back in a minute".

I tossed the piece of paper back at him and started walking off.

"Hey," he shouted. "What's it going to take to get you into a libation today?"

"How about no money down and $3,000 cash back?" I muttered sarcastically.

"That's doable," he said. "Do you have a trade-in?"
