   Love is in the hospital again.  He woke up having chest pains, but they went away and he went to work.  He looked so white when he arrived at work that his boss insisted that he go to the company doctor, who immediately put him in the hospital, but not into a hospital that can do the necessary surgery.  I fear they are going to let him die.  Stabilizing his condition doesn't correct the situation, and one of these times, his condition won't stabilize and he'll die.  By the time he dies, his hospital bills are going to be enormous, as enormous or more than the cost of the needed surgery.  The government will lose a taxpayer, who has twenty-five more years to work and pay taxes.  Love had more pain after dinner, and the staff told him that his heart monitor was behaving erratically. 

 

    President Reagon's own chief economic advisor is criticizing Reagon's new budget, and says that taxes must be raised.  The Budget Director say we are, as a nation, on the eve if bamkrucy.  The government has had to borrow so much money from the banks that the average person can't afford to borrow for the purchase of businesses, business expansion, homes, cars, appliances, etc.  New laws,  even some very stupid laws, that require police gestapo tactics, are being made with the direct purpose of raising revenue.  New licenses are being mandated on the general public and old license fees are being raised.No taxes on certain items are being mandated on the general public , and old taxes are being raised.  Instead of cutting income taxes, when everyone understands that taxes will have to be raised, why not raise them substantially, pay on the national debt, and stop this partisanship of special, singled out groups, , individuals, occupations and businesses?  Who would really notice a few dollars weekly increase in taxes.  I want to be free in this country and don't care about tax increases, as long as people aren't being hurt and restricted as they are now.  I see all of these mandates as infringing upon my freedom.\

 

    We are being artificially poisoned again, and who knows how long it's been going on with this particular poison, E.D.B.  Fortunately I bake everything from scratch and use organic, natural food.  No insecticides are used on organic gardening.  Unfortunately oranges from Mexico are poisoned with E.D.B., so, that particular fruit will be eliminated from my diet, as well as orange juice.  We import some of our oranges from Mexico, and I don't know which are imported and which ones aren't.

 

    A friend, Rob, stopped by to see how I was  and if I would be home tonight.  He has his children and is going to take them to dinner at his parent's house.  I told him to stop by afterward.  He is divorced, only working part-time and living with his parents.  He is one of the people not on any type of government statistic.  He's very good with Mom and very honest; both things impress me.
