January 03, 2011 journal, Las Vegas will become the healthcare Mecca, beats gambling. Healthcare even beats and that is it is more profitable than Wall Street with government support. The medical bubble is going to bust. This is gearing up to benefit from the new health care plan with mandated forced premiums, forced treatment, the sick and the well. Bankruptcy is said not to be an option for states but they must change that because Illinois and California are on the verge of bankruptcy and now even into the mode of end salvage. This will delete all their state pensions. Illinois is reported to already have halted pension payments. 2011 will no doubt be the year most states belly up financially. They reported that police, firemen and Homeland Security will be the highest priority to fund while they fire teachers and trash the Department of Education. Oh well, might as well, because, they are teaching evolution and godlessness to the children. By 2012 at this rate, there is not going to be much left standing. We must out learn to live independent of the government. Las Vegas is number one in unemployment and foreclosures so the bankers are happy. Meltdown of this country is coming soon now so it may not be long for the poor to wait. It is hard to imagine the chaos that will incur when the system goes down all the carnage. "In a recent Tom Dispatch introduction, I pointed out that, when it comes to America's wars, you can't afford to be right. I suggested that those who had foreseen disaster in Iraq and Afghanistan should logically be celebrated in this country and "should be in the Rolodexes of every journalist reporting on American foreign policy, the Iran crisis, or our wars." But, I asked, "When was the last time you heard from one of them or saw one spotlighted?" The interviewee in today's post is a case in point. When it comes to being right, there may be no journalist, analyst, or writer who has been more on target than Jonathan Schell, whether on Vietnam, the Nixon White House (and its early cult of executive power), nuclear weapons, the Afghan War, or the invasion of Iraq. His is a remarkable and remarkably unblemished record. If you want to know what to expect from the latest in American war, who better to go to than the man who was never wrong? Now that a possible war with Iran is regularly in the news, every week reporters are scrambling to check in with "experts" who couldn't have been more mistaken when it came to the invasion of Iraq. Who else should you ask in Washington, where "wrong" is the ticket to media success, a guarantee that your opinion will have value? As for right? Well, just how many calls a week do you imagine Jonathan Schell gets from reporters wanting his opinion on the latest in American war? Zero."
