Today, with the passage of an amendment to the state Constitution, Ohio had a big win against Obama-care. This amendment makes the individual healthcare mandate illegal under Ohio law. Putting this in the Ohio Bill of Rights protects us from having to purchase health insurance we may not need or want.
However, a voter's nose in Cuyahoga County was bitten by a poll worker. Read the article below for the craziness.

Scary Economy
The economy is in awful shape, no matter how many stimulus packages and bailouts Obama tries to hand-out.
Yet another green energy company filed bankruptcy after receiving 72 million in recovery funds. Beacon Power, a Massachusetts based flywheel manufacturer, accepted 43 million in guarantee loans and 29 million in stimulus grants. Two months ago, Solyndra also declared bankruptcy and also obtained a 535 million loan from the same Department of Energy program.
The government is distorting the market with these type of green loans. Investors and consumers should control the marketplace. In this case, had their been a need for another flywheel manufacturer in the marketplace, the stockholders would have green lit the project. Instead, the Obama administration bankrolled another green energy company and it goes broke.
I am fed up with the mismanagement of our government. There is no reason for the stimulus to the green energy companies. Why has the Obama administration not learned from other failed stimulus like "Cash for Clunkers"?

Falling Skys TNT Sunday 10pm EST
Falling Skys is a great show! If you haven't gotten this knowledge, its on TNT Sunday 10pm EST
mad for a min
i just wanna be mad for a minute. I am not mad often so let me take this minute to vent on some aggravating things.
first of all, i'm tired of being the only person not completely self absorbed and selfish. Its mind-boggling that i even call these people friends and put up with such nonsense. Its my own dumb fault for thinking people change and grow.
its my own dumb fault for letting myself be of assistance to people who wouldn't assist me. then i'm left holding the bag and appear to be the fool once again.
these feelings and situations arise from time to time in my life, i need to understand these things and try and gain some sort of ground here.
there's been a lot of situations where i grin and bear it, where i am put in situations where i need to be the strong one, the sober one, the social one, the one who holds all the pieces together.
if i am this for other people, then who is it for me.
i want to do a few hateful shout outs to the idiots and assholes, but you know what... i'm over it, i'm moving on. - keep it movin' as Miss Lil says
In this new phase i am entering in my life i will begin my new relationships on the right foot.
Im a positive person 95% of the time, this is part of my 5%. Thanks for listening.
