Hoo-r-a-ay for Small Business!!


Weekly Address 10-24-09


President Obama is praising small businesses stating that they have been the engine of our economy providing 65% providing new jobs in the past 15 years. He feels they must be at the forefront for stimulating our economy. Many have failed due to big box companies moving in or the high cost of health insurance for their workers.


There is a place for the small business who caters to those buyers who want something special unique. I can speak to that because I am one of those small business owners. We have our niches that we can fit in quite nicely and be able to thrive. Small businesses are doing something right being that 65% of them are providing jobs for Americans and the rest of the percent well?





Recovery act was made to help small biz expand and create more jobs. He is asking Congress to expand the amounts of SBA loans and various other programs. I am sure that there has been some balancing of budget here and will have to review that in another post but for now take a listen and…..

To God’s creation!!!


Well another land marking piece of legislature has been passed by the House of Representatives this past Friday. As President Obama congrats the House on the passing of the bill it still has yet to go to the Senate for approval.


The “American Clean Energy And Security Act of 2009,” which has addressed many energy, environmental, and increased opportunities for jobs for Americans is half way to being a major part of our new legislation.


Clean and efficient energy is something that we and the world have been fighting for over a number of years. As I sit here and reminisce about an article I just saw earlier this week about the Homestead Mine in Sioux Falls, SD.  Where an abandoned mine is being used for “dark matter” research and they are digging even further into the ground! It is sited as being the just over three Empire state buildings deep, it just floors me that we are still doing things to desecrate and destroy the only planet we have to live on.


Regardless of what they are saying about the moon, mars and whatever else, take care of what you have before trampling around the universe for other areas of possible inhabitable worlds. Geez!!!


So my hat is off the those who are really concerned for getting us our planet back healthy and preserving our sacred lands.  As President Obama states, “We can’t be afraid of the future and that prisoners of the past.  We need to come together and meet our obligations – to our constituents, to our children, to God’s creation, and to future generations.”






Now onto the Senate and yes it will pass!!
