Perhaps Mr Cannon, you need to share this with Congress, not us. People are not sure what the Demo's and Obama will do next, every time they make a move the dollar gets weaker plus the country has struggled to cope with waves of layoffs and the worst recession since World War II. And inflation has hit zero, the economists expect the country's 50 million Social Security recipients will get no annual cost-of-living increase in their benefit checks next January. Congress should include a boost to Social Security in another stimulus package. A lot of retail chains have slashed their own prices, too, to lure cash-strapped consumers. The U.S. has not experienced a bout of deflation since the Great Depression of the 1930s. And many economists say the Fed has responded aggressively enough with interest-rate cuts to prevent a dangerous bout of falling prices. Culture is one of those words that everyone uses but can't define. Protest was a natural civic inclination, prompted when we saw democracy being taken in a mischievous direction. The younger generation have not generally placed high value on the wisdom of our elderly today.

I agree with your statement that reads “Aristotle points out that courage or "self-mastery" are consequences of habitual responses.” Understanding “self” is the key to a good life, so many of us believe that we are the victim of circurmstance we do not understand that we are the ones that control all that we are involved in. But this knowledge is hidden becouse of our lack of understanding of “self”. Find out more about who you are read The Power of Self Separation.You will have a better understanding of life.

It is hard to change ones self. I have been trying my whole life and I have just grown older and bigger, but pretty much the same person as I was as a child.

In a response to Wilford You can change this will happen when you are ready not before. You have to understand what is holding you back.
