About Your Future by Walt Barrett

       I really do enjoy writing my in blogs and now that I have recovered and am rested I am writing again.  I have been kicking around the planet for nearly eighty years.  It's been a hell of a ride and I think - hope that I managed to learn a few things along the way.
I am an absolute news freak and have always followed the conditions on the planet very closely.  I hate to be a real downer, but I feel obligated to share my observations with all four of my Blog followers.  I want to talk about what's happening right now and how it is going to affect the future of many people, keeping in mind that many people act like they don't care if they fall through the cracks, so to speak.
   Everyone should realize by now that conditions in the USA and other countries are very bad right now and will get worse for many Americans.  Our government is too busy spending money micro managing the rest of the world to solve our serious problems here at home where it really counts.   This is basically the fault of congress who  make and have made the final decisions and passed the laws that have made all of the current terrible conditions possible. Loopholes in the election laws have made it possible for even foreign countries to buy influence in our congress.  It has nothing to do with political parties and everything to do with influence peddling.  We have been sold out by our own congress!
   So let's get to the bottom line here.  We can all see this coming, but how can we either stop it, or at least protect ourselves?  It may be easier to take the proper steps now to protect ourselves than to stop this juggernaut of a runaway government.   If you don't sit down right now and make a plan for your own future this is what I predict will happen to at least one third of the working and unemployed Americans over the next ten to twenty years.  First of all, do not plan on anyone else making a plan for you!
   My personal outlook based upon the current conditions is that you are going to see many Americans unemployed and homeless.
You will see thousands of Americans dying from freezing, starvation, sickness, and lack of medical care, and that is just the short version of what I envision. You will see our so called allies abandon us and gleefully watch us sink into the quicksand!  This brings up a point.  You cannot micro manage the world while standing knee deep in quicksand!  Based upon their past performance our self indulgent do nothing congress is only going to make matters worse and I mean both parties.  One is as bad as the other.
   If I were you I would start working on a survival plan that includes some kind of an income very soon now because the hand writing is up there and it does not look good.
Oh, by  the way, one last prediction. If the Republicans do not pull a real fresh and brilliant candidate out of their upcoming convention they will not win the Presidential election. I don't thing they wand to win the last election and I doubt they want to win this one either.  I am a centrist myself.  I don't trust any politicians. Did you ever see such a mess in your life!  We need to put Americans back to work now!

Dolphins being Stranded on Cape Cod Massachusetts by Walt Barrett

Scientists are puzzled by another rash of  Dolphins being stranded on Cape Cod.  I'll put my two cents in by suggesting that the recent very strong solar flares have caused magnetic anomalies in the area that could be affecting the Dolphin's ability to navigate.  The distance from the Cape Cod to the Bermuda Triangle by the way is a little over 700 miles.  Now let's see what the scientists have to say about that.
