Last Day Of Reruns
I finally made it to the end of the week. You know what? I am actually starting to feel a little bit better. I slept straight through the night without any hot and cold sweats. I'm a little dizzy. But that could be from the
Rock & Roll lifestyle I raged throughout my body during the 1980s,
early 90s! Now my body is a temple and I hardly ever, ever abuse it with Sex, Drugs, & Rock N' Roll! It might have a lot to do with being out of shapeor the shape I'm in. Since it's the end of the week, I still wanted to end with a fan favorite. Right out of the time capsule of June 10th, 2015.
Two True Americans
I heard a wonderful story last night on
ABC's Nightline.
The story was about
Dan Price.CEO
and founder of
"Gravity Payments"
in Seattle.What this man did recently,
was cut his salary from 1 million dollars a year,
to $70,000.00 a year!All because he wanted to find a way for his 149 employees to receive a raise this year.Everyone who works for
Gravity Payments
now has an annual salary of $70,000.00.Dan Price
started the company in 2004
and now feels,
to help his company grow larger
and to be more competitive in the future,
it all starts with having a strong employee base who believe in the company they are working for.Also on the program was
Nick Hanauer,
who is a
Venture Capitalist.He is part of the 1% of elite rich Americans.He predicts,
that if the top 1% doesn't turn this trend around,
of the rich getting richer
and the poor getting poorer,
ending in a two class system,
(which I have commented on in this Blog many times)
this country will eventually turn into a
Police State.Summarizing his belief;
A two class system can only lead to three things,
violence against the rich elitists,
a Police State,
or a revolution against the existing Government.Now,
if only the rest of the 1% would come to their senses,
the Republicans would stop fighting against the
President's Healthcare plan,
(they are still trying to outlaw Obama Care through Supreme Court hearings as I write this Post)
and Companies in this country voluntarily raise their employee pay scale
(by cutting back on their company's Executive Bonuses),
this country can once again call itself,
"The Land Of The Free!"Because I'm not the only one storing up ammunition,
weapons,
explosives,
and food to put an end to this discrepancy!Or am I?
This is,
After I Wrote This Post - Dan Price Is Now Being Sued By His Brother - A Stock Holder - On The Grounds His Pay Raises Would Hinder His Profits - And Of Course The 1% Of Rich Americans Did Not Heed Nick Hanauer's Advice - Only Time Will Tell If He Was Right,
Jim Hauenstein,
And,
"If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich." - John F. Kennedy -That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
