• Health Care Fever

  —Swick Speak

  Listen to the taxpayers
  there is dissension all around.
  There is a vote going down
  and we disagree with it.
  
  In the bowels of Congress
  there are payoffs galore.
  If there is a vote to buy
  we will pay for it.
  
  And that socialized health care
  creeps into [...]

  I was told tonight by a friend of ours that unemployment benefits have been extended to 93 weeks in Connecticut. 104 weeks makes 2 years thus you can remain on unemployment benefits for 1 year and 9 months and collect $537 a week at the maximum for not working.

  —Swick Speak

  Number of comments: 0
  I am still wondering what will be the costs of nationalized health care? And who will pay for it? In trying to follow the limited information given by Congress regarding the bill I see that the bulk of this bill will be payed for by those who can least afford [...]

• What Economic Problems?

  —Swick Speak

  Number of comments: 0
  What Economic Problems? I can't think of any but unemployment, a massive national debt, a loss of our manufacturing base, disincentives to save and invest, a pay czar dictating to private businesses what salaries can be paid, massive home foreclosures, the stripping of power of the Federal Reserve System, an' [...]

• Congress To Taxpayers-Drop Dead. We Will Under Their Health Care Plan.

  —Swick Speak

  Number of comments: 0
  By taxpayers dropping dead there will be more health care available to those living under the House health care plan that was recently passed and read by very few who actually voted on it. It is a victory for socialism, poor health care service, government run health care, rationing of [...]

• Wallingford Voters Vote No and Embrace Republican Majorities

  —Swick Speak

  Number of comments: 0
  Wallingford voters spoke loudly on Tuesday. They defeated by an overwhelming margin charter revision and placed the Town Council and Board of Education into Republican majority. This election was in my political opinion a strong statement against the policies and tactics of the Wallingford Democratic party and the state party [...]

• Jobs Can Not Be Saved, You Are Either Employed Or Unemployed. Simple.

  —Swick Speak

  Number of comments: 0
  You are either employed or unemployed in our economy. I am confused myself, when is a job saved that makes $30,000 a year worth spending $160,000 to save it? Only if you are trying to follow the massive pork laden economic stimulus bill which was shoved down taxpayers throats earlier [...]

• Brodinsky Debates Himself and Wins The Debate! I Still Will Vote No On Charter Revision

  —Swick Speak

  Number of comments: 0
  Mike Brodinsky recently debated himself on Wallingford Charter Revision in front of no one but a public access television camera, no audience and minus that anti Charter revisionist revolutionary Steve Knight who rightfully declined the debate. And Brodinsky won the debate hands down! I guess when one debates oneself one [...]
