• The Breet Report – Reading and Viewing

      0 comments

    Contrary to all of the videos that I am posting here on the site, I have been doing a lot of reading on many subjects lately.  I have been afforded the time to do “catch-up reading,” on all of the books I have purchased in the within the last year.

    Well, in the world of videos – this guy speaks volumes to what people understand, and do not understand.

    Even if a person does not work in a specific field (i.e. banking, stocks, medicine), it does not mean they cannot travel out of the comfort zone to begin learning new things…

    How in the heck do you think everything we know today got here?? All it took was someone with an idea.  That’s about as simple as it can be said.

  • The Breet Report – Expensive Living, Pony Up Public

      0 comments

    The health care industries make millions, maybe even billions, from premiums paid by businesses (large or small) and individuals annually. Currently, the nation is in a battle for a universal plan to cover all citizens. Instead of what is in the bill – for real, the fine print – it is now shifting to cost. The nation is in a mess right now with too big to failures happening across the board. The impossible is now possible, but people are still expected to pay, pay, pay. Here is the question that rolls around, when the heck did it get so expensive to just live?

    The understanding is there for why local areas have taxes. The people who have trained in medical and fire rescue, and police protection, should be paid because they provide a service to the local community. Hence, the cost is incorporated into the community cost for the secured piece of mind. Okay, that can be agreed upon.

    Now, taking this idea of taxes to the federal level, knowing there are corporation issues within the government (funds to politicians, that are well documented) and Wall Street, this whole healthcare thing smells like a rat.

    The people are getting tired of hearing about the mud, and ready to just pony up the cost. The idea of “wearn’ down” comes to mind, and this is what our society has come too. Since the average citizen learned the system, it is time to change the system. The change in the system is leaving citizens at the mercy of the all mighty currency.

    Where are the jobs again? Who will build the new prisons, or do they already exist? What is the objective for such shenanigans? (Remember the average cost to imprison individuals is about $35,000.00 annually. Now, adjust for inflation. And yes, it is an Yahoo Answer, but check out the links associated with it.) Why is it so expensive to just live?

    (Next thing in the pipe (besides this silly cap and trade, since REDD might just work) will be a tax on the pollute air we breath. You never know…)

    - Opinion/Just Talking -
    Here is something else…has anyone noticed that Congress has not yet given themselves a raise this year? Maybe it is just me but…normally, a bill is passed with some fine print. Of course, if that has happened, then it has been glossed over…
    Or…from earlier this year, perhaps they received the slap on the wrist too from Mr. President to not incorporate that into anything….I wonder.

  • The Breet Report – Herd Like…The People?

    Where and how to begin being nice to each other is often times complicated in a city.  People use manners but love to have juicy tidbits of “dirt” to tell their families or friends. Heaven forbid even blackmail information to have the upper hand over one another. The ever important labels and categories needed for people to make sense of one another has developed quite well over our society.  For that matter, beyond better than expectations since people rarely just talk and not be judged.

    Over the weekend anyone who read the article below realizes that the sheep analogy is correct by now.  The herd moves at certain times of the day to execute x, y, and z, before calling it a day.  Of course, there is rinse and repeat for at least five more times before people can relax finally to get a break.  Cycles and habits are hard to break – heck look at the markets.  The ones who “needed saving” are still in the mix for and did declare bankruptcy.  These are the same ones that show up to creditor meetings for others who filed bankruptcy and rub in that “they have the upper hand.”  (Okay, not all of them.  I know this to be a fact and even a righteous, “damn we gottcha ya moment.” LOL. The ones I am speaking of, kudos for not falling into the trap.)  Moving on…

    There has been another question rolling around in my noggin’ for as long as I can remember, maybe since I started paying attention to the politics here and there….
    Why is our President…the President of the United States…not the top?  To confirm this, one has to search out the still shots of Bill Clinton’s bio, where he clearly states that there are 27 layers ABOVE the President for authorizations. (Or review the Jimmy Carter info.)  Meaning, our President is not really a President but a show…ummm?  Considering the politics in Washington, which loves to say there are two parties, but really there is not, I guess this would be par for the course.  And to further get the wheels greased…Why put on the show?  Why allow the people to continue the herd mentality of voting?  Is it for people to think that they have a voice? (And realize that my respect for the President is the fact that he is a human being too…just why the heck is he not able to be the President??)

    Well, there are a lot of questions that roll around, so the next one takes me back, two years ago I believe when Yahoo news picked up the story about the Spanish flu being “resurrected,” via the latest technology, then safely stored at the CDC.  At the time, being in the office and just talking, I let it be known that was really stupid and how in the world do they expect it to be safe? What about the “mad scientist” that wants to rebuild it and unleash it?  (See it was around the time of the scientist sending out anthrax…so that was what in 2003…maybe…later than two years ago then?)  Either way, there are agencies that exist that have a need to test out new little buggers to see what they do.  I mean, the military can only be used so far since there are no new fresh candidates to inoculate – those figures for recruits still suck.   So… why bring it back knowing that death would be the ultimate end?  Knowing no cure existed? Funny thing about any natural flu or bioengineered flu…nature makes it adaptable and changes it further.

    There is a much bigger picture, and the clues to truth lay in each one of us.  Each of us has the truth of being a decent and caring human being, and capable of understanding that not everyone is going to agree.  This happens all the time with people saying, “I haven’t talked to such n’ such in a while, but let me tell you….” See the part where people say, “let me tell you….” means an impression or knowledge was left that developed that persons mindset.  If you were positive, then a positive impression – If you were negative, then a negative impression – see? This simple formula is used to keep everyone at odds with each other because of the labels and categories.  There is not one person out there better than anyone else.  There just isn’t because when you take everything away, and I mean all of it, we are all the same.  Each of us is the same – no matter the color of the skin, wealth in the bank, car that is driven, clothes worn, nails did, etc. etc. – We are all the same.  Not one thing in life should be separating us and yet, it has been everything to separate us and make each of us, at least to some degree, be what we see in society.

    Change the mindset, and know that it is going to take peace, love, working together, rather EACH OTHER, to do the opposite of what others do that drive the wedges to separate us.
