Why the long layoff?

Bob Zacharias on Nov 4th 2009

Yup, haven’t posted here in a long time. But why? Well, I could be accused of being lazy or apathetic, but I know there’s more to it than that.

I found a Reuters article  today that reinforces my belief. Yeah, I think many of us are bogged down and distracted by just trying to strategize how we’ll get through these tough times.

As a side note, I really identified with the retired teacher from Nashville’s comment about our elected officials interest (or lack thereof) about our input regarding the deficit. This lady is right on. So please keep that in mind as our government inches ever closer to a national health care plan. Overall, I think national health care should be a cornerstone of the greatst and wealthiest nation in the world. However, if our government wants to enact it, then they should do what I do in my real estate business: it’s called “full Disclosure”. We need to know what its reall gonna cost.

At this point, we still don’t know that. But the one thing many of us ARE sure of is that it just doesn’t “feel” right and that taxpayers are going to be holding the bag of goods in the not too distant future.

Honestly, I really do think that I’ve devoted time and energy to that concern that has distracted me over the past few months. How about you?
