America: Unemployment Rise and Presidential Election

 

Today, I learned to read this USA TODAY website. 

I am not pleased with 2 issues regarding:

UNEMPLOYMENT RATE:

1.) 44 States rose Unemployment Rate since July.

My Florida finally rose 8.8% Unemployment Rate,

Governor Rick Scott certainly is embarrass by

himself.  Yes, He is a Republican.  Other States

with Unemployment Number List: 1. Nevada is

highest rate in the nation, though it’s still

much lower than a year ago, when it was 13.8%.

The rate rose 12% in July from 11.6% the previous

month.  2. North Carolina have 9.6% rate.

 

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION: 

 

And the Republican National Convention starts in

Tampa, FL effective August 27th to 30th.  Secondly,

Democratic National Convention starts in Charlotte,

North Carolina effective September 3rd to 6th.

 

USA TODAY is heading this title.  Please click this

bold headline.

Romney declines Obama offer on tax releases

In a reference to the first presidential debate on

October 3rd, Rhodes also told Messina: “See you

in Denver.”  Why did the first presidential debate

choose Denver, Colorado?  Because you should know

about what happened in Colorado following fire

destroyed the houses outside of the Colorado Springs

and James Holmes of San Diego, California,

Murder invaded inside the Cinema Theater where he

started to shoot some moviegoers in Aurora,

outside of Denver last July.  That is very tough for

People of Colorado to see and listen at the first

presidential debate on October 3rd before Colorado

will have very massive tough to elect for Romney or

Obama on November 6th, Election Day.  Good luck,

Colorado!

 

 

Brent’s First Paid on Vacation 1994

 

I remembered about my former employment

with Boatmen’s First National Bank of

Kansas City, Missouri.  I used to live

in there for 3 years (1992-1995) before

moved in Key West, Florida for 6 months

(Summer to Fall 1995).

During Year of 1994, I took my first Paid

on 2 Weeks Vacation, I travel on Amtrak

Train between Kansas City via St. Louis,

Missouri to New Orleans, Louisiana before

visit to see my old friend in Biloxi, Mississippi

for 4 days.  I had bad and good experiences in

there.  I returned to New Orleans again before

flew to Miami, Florida when my old other friend

and I met in the airport during night time.

We went to his home in Miami Beach, Florida so

I stayed in there for 4 days.   

 

Next morning, My friend went to work while I got

out and walked on Collins Avenue where I saw

something around the Youth Hostel.  I realized

at Film Production Company’s Recreational

Vehicle and Truck where I saw a original Actor,

Sylvester Stallone and Actress, Sharon Stone on

the scene.   This film called “The Specialist”.

 

 

The Specialist is a 1994 American action film

from Warner Bros. Pictures.

PLOT

In 1984, explosives experts working the CIA,

Captain Ray Quick and Colonel Ned Trent, are

on a mission to blow up a car transporting a

South American drug dealer.  But when the dealer’s

car appears, a little girl is inside.  Ray insists

they abort the mission but Ned intends to see it

through and allows the explosion to happen.

Angered by the girl’s wrongful death, Ray beats

Ned up savagely and their partnership ends…

 

This is Sylvester Stallone.  How old was he?

He was age of 48 during action of the scene.

This is Sharon Stone.  How old was she?

She was age of 36 during with Sylvester on the

scene.

I witnessed on them while I kept distant from

scene.   How old was I?  I was age of 28.

I never forget them on my life.

2 Months to Go for Election 2012

 

Time always fly away!  We will forward to

see and listen over the 2012 Presidential Debate

before make a final decision to elect on 6th Day

of November.

 

I got a mail from my Hillsborough County Election

Board last month.  I have a Voter Card.  I will

get a vote mail instead of attend to the Polling.

 

I will have a photo opportunity with my vote mail

before Election Day.   I will post it on my new

blog for you.

U.S. Mail is going in hot water without assistance?

 

Follow the History.

The first postal service in America arose in

February 1692, when a grant from King William

and Queen Mary empowered Thomas Neale “to

erect, settle and establish within the chief

parts of their majesties’ colonies and

plantations in America, an office or

offices for the receiving and dispatching

letters and pacquets, and to receive, send

and deliver the same under such rates and sums

of money as the planters shall agree to give,

and to hold and enjoy the same for the term

of twenty-one years.

 

The United States Post Office (USPO)

was created in Philadelphia under

Benjamin Franklin on July 26, 1775,

by decree of the Second Continental

Congress.  Based on the Postal Clause in

Article One of the United States Constitution,

empowering Congress “To establish post offices

and post roads”, it became the Post Office

Department (USPOD) in 1792. 

 

237th Age of the US Mail

 

Yesterday, July 26, 2012 passed.  Sad to see

bad news following the heavy debts and finance

in hot water now,  The USPS employs over 574,000

workers and operates over 218,000 vehicles.

The USPS is the operator of the largest vehicle

fleet in the world.  The USPS is legally obligated

to serve all Americans, regardless of geography, at

uniform price and quality. The USPS has exclusive

access to letter boxes marked “U.S. Mail” and

personal letterboxes in the United States, but still

completes against private package delivery services,

such as UPS and FedEx.

On December 5, 2011 the USPS announced it would close

more than half of its mail processing centers,

eliminate 28,000 jobs and end overnight delivery of

first-class mail.  This will close down 252 of its

461 processing centers.  On December 13, 2011 the

USPS agreed to delay the closing of 252 mailing

processing centers as well as 3,700 local post

offices until mid-May 2012.

The USPS has not directly received taxpayer-

dollars since the early 1980s with the minor

exception of subsides for costs associated

with the disabled and overseas voters.

However, it does receive tens to hundreds of

millions per year in “implicit subsides”,

such as breaks on property tax, vehicle

registration, and sales tax, in addition to

subsidized government loans.  Since the 2006

all-time peak mail volume, after which Congress

passed the “Postal Accountability and Enhancement

Act”, (which mandated $5.5 billion per year to

be paid into an account to per-fund retiree

health-care, 75 years into the future --

a requirement unique to this agency), revenue

dropped sharply due to recession-influenced

declining mail volume, prompting the postal

service to look to other sources of revenue

while cutting costs to reduce its budget deficit.
