But, for more information, go to the OpenWHO.org and find out more than what I have written here. You can take an hour course on this new virus, what to do to prevent, and how to communicate with people to help them be more informed about the Novel Coronavirus. We must prevent this from spreading, even if it means limited travel to and from affected countries. Let's help stop the spread of this virus and the Open WHO website from the World Health Organization is a site I do recommend you to visit.

I don't know what to say about this. When I hear about events like this, it gives me room to ponder. There was a man named Marvin and I knew him, and he was an active church member who drove a church bus and he would help bring in kids on Wednesday night for Wednesday night services each Wednesday night. Well, after services were over, he had a heart attack and died and I didn't know about this until I looked at Facebook the next day. It just happened all of a sudden. We never know when our time will come when we all die. We just don't know. Somebody can ask, "Was it what God intended?" I really don't know that! Things like this just happen. For Kobe and Gianna, what if they didn't choose to travel on a helicopter and chose to stay home? They may still be here. What if they chose another type of transportation? By plane? It may have happened. By car? It may have crashed in a collision. Hardly anybody travels by train in this country. By bus? Not likely would they travel by bus. I guess it was their time to go and I cannot really say that God intended this to take place. This is what I hear a lot. Personally, I have no answer. Friends, families, and loved ones should comfort one another in these family members' time of need always. There was a couple who were missionaries in Brazil for thirty years. They finally come back to the U.S. to live, but they died in a car wreck. I still cannot explain these phenomenons or why they happen? Again, when times like this happen, we all need to comfort one another. This is really all I have to say for now. I just don't know what tomorrow will bring.

Now, we have the trial in the Senate. No matter what cases are brought against him, the Senate will vote to acquit President Donald J. Trump even if the cases are strong against over the Bidens and Ukraine, for example. I just don't see him getting removed from office and then sent to prison. Majority Leader, Sen. Mitch McConnell, will not have it no matter what is being brought up. I just don't see it. If this happens, then I am a NBA basketball player. I hope that justice prevails and that there is no constitutional crisis. I wish I had more to say right now about it. I am waiting to see how it goes.
It was a good day yesterday marching down Garrison Avenue in Fort Smith for the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. parade. I marched with the County Democrats. Another group who marched were the local Citizens' Climate Lobby. But, the highlight of this march like it is every year are the bands of both Northside and Southside High Schools in Fort Smith together playing "We Shall Overcome." Also, in the parade are KISR 93.7 and its sister radio stations and various churches and different businesses who also marched as well as the Fort Smith Public Schools and Future School. also, the Fort 94.5 and so many participants. This is done every third Monday of January each year and as long as I am working for the public schools, I will have that opportunity to help out and march. I may land a job where I may not be able to do that because it is federal holiday.
That's all for now.Tim Gunterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04945602190516238139noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279381990851364497.post-10495124427663704832020-01-14T20:39:00.001-06:002020-01-14T20:40:24.433-06:00What's in the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act (H.R. 763) Folks, I am not exactly on board on this, because I do not trust the government to send citizens a rebate or a check mailed back to them at all from the U. S. Treasury. Here is how this works if the bill was passed by the House and then, by the Senate, and then signed by (laughter) President Trump. This is information provided by the Citizens' Climate Lobby.
"Question: What's in the bill?
"Answer: The Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act, the first bipartisan climate legislation in a decade, has been reintroduced as H.R. 763. (1) It's based on a CCL framework to account for the hidden costs of burning fossil fuels. If enacted into law, this policy will drive down greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by stimulating American innovation and ingenuity. Scientists and economists alike (2.3) say it's the best first step to reduce the impact of global warming.
"Here's how it works:
"A carbon fee is placed on coal, oil, or natural gas as it enters the U.S. economy.
"The fee starts at $15 per metric ton of CO2 and increases by $10 - adjusted for inflation - every year until GHG emissions are reduced by 90 percent.
"All of the money is recycled to American residents in equal monthly carbon dividends helping consumers adapt while businesses compete to reduce their carbon footprints.
"If emission cuts don't meet mandatory targets, the annual increase can be raised to $15.
"A carbon border fee adjustment is placed on emissions-intensive goods that are imported or exported. This discourages businesses from relocating to where they can pollute more, and also encourages other nations to price carbon.
"This policy would supersede a narrow subset of GHG regulations (4) for 10 years, but if GHG emissions haven't been cut 30 percent by then, the EPA would be obligated to issue new rules to put us back to back on track. All other Clean Air Act regulations remain in full force.
"Because the steady increase in fossil energy prices is predictable, it will stimulate invention and investment to cut carbon in myriad ways. Consumers will know they can count on increasing dividends to help them through the transition to a world of clean, energy-efficient goods and services."
Maybe this bill has a chance to be passed when we have a new Congress and a new presidential administration who care more about than going to war. Now, no chance. But, the CCL and the Citizens' Climate League both are persistent. Members of calling their congresspeople constantly every month to get this bill debated on the floor.

Tulsi Gabbard is way too peaceful. But, I believe I am on board with her. She does not want war and neither do I. Her hot topic has been U.S. Foreign Policy and she is correct over everything over this quagmire over Iran and the killing of Suliemani, the Iranian general. I are tired of other Democrats attacking her who are too cowardly to stand up to Republicans and I am tired of Republicans who back President Trump no matter the cost of military lives and who won't stand up to him. Americans are weary of war and we are still in a war in Afghanistan and Iraq. What does victory even look like? And what does victory look like in a war with Iran? The Iraqi Parliament voted to remove American troops from Iraq and since they did, isn't it time to bring the troops out of Iraq and bring them home? They clearly don't want us there and that is the objective Iran has. It is for Americans to leave Iraq. Well, instead, 3,000 more troops are being deployed to Iraq which only escalates more tension for war. It is time to step back from war. The Iraqi people do not want more war. This is the first post for 2020 and I hope to write more later. Please, go to Twitter and look up Tulsi Gabbard. She is the real deal in the Democratic Party. It's too bad the party doesn't love her.Tim Gunterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04945602190516238139noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279381990851364497.post-31291947960039393762019-12-31T17:33:00.000-06:002019-12-31T17:33:45.246-06:00I have not posted a whole lot this decade. I have posted more on Facebook and Twitter, and I certainly did not sign up for other social media sites. I do a lot of substitute teaching now and I do other jobs. This was the decade when Fort Smith lost Whirlpool and sensible people out there can understand how big of a loss it was for the town and the surrounding communities. The only people who don't seem to are what I call the "elite", members of the Fort Smith Leadership group. Nothing had really replaced all of those jobs that were lost. Not with Sykes or with other companies. Glatfelter only hired 87 people, a company that started its operation back in 2017. Razorback football absolutely stunk during this decade. Razorback basketball is improving, recently beating the Hoosiers! Razorback baseball has been wonderful. I hope for a better decade where I continue to get old, which I am not too crazy about. "You only as old as you feel." Cable TV is on its way out. Who needs it. Wireless television through the Internet is the way to go. A satellite dish on your roof? Why? I look forward to a happy 2020.

Okay, it has been a long while since I posted anything on blogger. We are ending a decade and starting a new decade. Things seem to get worse and worse. We have a president who is now impeached, the most unhinged president I have ever seen in my lifetime. We are laughed at by many in the world. And I don't see anything coming from this. He may be end up being the first impeached president to be re-elected by the electoral college, since he was never popularly elected. No, not yet. Well, I hope this Christmas in 2019 will bring out the best for you this season. What do supporters reason with this? Well, the stock market's up. Low unemployment, but that counts only those who are presently unemployed. Many people have left the job market altogether either through retirement or just gave up looking for work. Gig jobs and temp work seem to be the way to go. Trump is pulling troops out. I read a marquee from a Tribune-owned TV station that he was pulling out 4,000 troops from Afghanistan. We know he pulled troops from Syria, hence, losing friendship with the Kurds. I don't know how often I am going to write in this blog. I just recently gained back my old Google account. I plan on this blog to be pretty much a miscellaneous blog on many things and I won't try to be as political. Psyche! I can't guarantee that. And as we speak, Tulsi Gabbard's candidacy for president is on its way out. She votes "present" on impeachment on both counts. And I find she is way too chummy with India's Modi and Syria's Assad. She is the peace candidate, but way too pacifist for me. Conservative supporters question her anti-Israel stance enough that they will not get on board. Democrats do not need to worry about her. Get her on these issues. She is way too peaceful. So much so, she gives authoritarians the green light! Again, Merry Christmas!Tim Gunterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04945602190516238139noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279381990851364497.post-2018988766068545922012-06-19T20:06:00.000-05:002012-06-19T20:06:25.078-05:00Myths and Lies about Single Payer1. Single payer is socialized medicine. WRONG.
That would be the Veterans Administration. Or the British health care system. Where the government pays for the doctors and hospitals.
Under single payer, you get a health care card and you can go to any doctor or hospital in the United States.
Doctors are not employees of the government.
Hospitals remain in private hands. You get free choice of doctor and hospital.
2. Single payer will lead to rationing, like in Canada. WRONG.
Right now in these United States, the private health insurance companies ration care.
If you don't have health insurance, you don't get health insurance. 50.7 million Americans currently lack health insurance.
That's why 120 Americans die every day from lack of health care.
There are some problems in the Canadian system, but most of what you hear about long lives is health insurance industry propaganda.
Zero people die every day in Canada due to lack of health insurance.
3. Costs will skyrocket under single payer. WRONG.
Single payer is the only health care reform that will save enough money to insure everyone.
By eliminating the health insurance industry, we save $350 billion a year in administrative costs and profits.
We then use that money to insure those who lack insurance and fully cover those who are under-insured.
Yes, more people will be seeking health care because they will now have insurance. But they will be taking care of medical problems only, thus preventing more costly treatment later.
4. Drugs will be more difficult to get under single payer. WRONG.
The drug industry would have you believe that there will be less research and development under a single payer system.
In fact, much medical research is currently funded by the National Institutes of Health.
Under single payer, this would grow.
Also, drugs will be cheaper under single payer.
When all patients are under one system, the payer wields a lot of clout.
For example, the Veterans Administration gets a 40% discount on drugs because of its buying power.
Now you know why the drug industry is so opposed to single payer.
5. Single payer will cover less than the insurance I have now. WRONG.
For the majority of Americans, single payer will be a vast improvement.
All medically necessary care would be funded through the single payer, including doctor visits, hospital care, prescriptions, mental services, nursing home care, rehab, home care, eye care, and dental care.
An enlightened single payer will also result in a sharp increase in public health funding to prevent disease.
No more bills. No more deductibles. No more co-pays.
6. Single payer will cost me more than I'm paying now for private health insurance. WRONG.
The vast majority of Americans will pay about the same or less than they are paying now.
Instead of paying premiums to a private health insurance company, most of us will pay a similar or smaller amount in taxes.
So, right now, if you are paying $8,000 in premiums for a family of 4 with a $4,000 deductible, your yearly liability is at least $12,000.
You will probably pay less than that in taxes to fund a universal single payer.
There will be no deductible.
And you can go to see any doctor or check in to any hospital in the United States.

<br />
This reckless privatization scheme is an insult to every hardworking American who has paid into Medicare.<br />
<br />
Medicare belongs to the people who worked their whole life to pay into the system. It's not the government's piggy bank to balance the budget on the backs of seniors.<br />
<br />
Seniors, our children, and grandchildren deserve better than an extreme Republican scheme that would impose dangerous benefit cuts to Medicare.<br />
<br />
GOP Budget would almost double health care costs for seniors. "The Republican congressman's proposal to privatize Medicare would mean a dramatic hike in U.S. health care costs for the elderly, an independent analysis finds. Seniors would pay almost double - more than $12,510 a year." [Los Angeles Times, 4/7/11]<br />
<br />
The Republican Budget will force nearly 4,000,000 seniors to pay $2.2 billion for prescription drugs next year alone. "Since passing their reckless budget plan last week, Republicans nationwide have continued to make the false claim that their plan protects today's seniors. But seniors need to know the facts about the GOP plan. The Republican-passed budget will force nearly 4,000,000 seniors to pay an additional $2.2 BILLION for prescription drugs next year alone. [DPCC, 4/21/11; Associated Plan, 4/6/11]<br />
<br />
AARP: Budget undermines vital initiatives for older Americans. "Among its provisions, the proposal would drive up costs for people in Medicare, take away needed coverage for long-term care from millions of older and disabled Americans and reduce critical help for seniors facing the threat of hunger." [AARP, 4/7/11]<br />
<br />
CBO: Elderly people would pay more for health care under the Republican Plan. According to the CBO, "most elderly people would pay more for their health care than they would pay under the current Medicare system." [CBO, 4/5/11]<br />
<br />
Medicare Cost would rise for many under Ryan Plan. "The House Republican for overhauling Medicare would fundamentally change how the federal government pays for health care, starting a decade from now, likely resulting in higher out-of-pocket costs and greater limits to coverage for many Americans." [WSJ, 4/6/11]<br />
<br />
GOP Budget raises health costs for retirees. "Most future retirees would pay more for health care under a new House Republican budget proposal, according to an analysis by nonpartisan experts for Congress that could be an obstacle to GOP ambitions to tame federal deficits." [AP, 4/6/11]Tim Gunterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04945602190516238139noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279381990851364497.post-34245676186943060032011-08-20T13:43:00.000-05:002011-08-20T13:43:56.458-05:00Republicans' War on America Because They Hate Pres. Obama or any Democrat in OfficeTheir Agenda:<br />
<br />
Destroy 700,000 middle class jobs.<br />
<br />
Zero out federal funding for National Public Radio and public television.<br />
<br />
Slash $1.3 billion from community health centers and eliminate funding for Planned Parenthood.<br />
<br />
Slash nearly a billion dollars in food and health care assistance to pregnant women, new moms, and children.<br />
<br />
Slash support for Head Start, dropping 200,000 vulnerable children for pre-school.<br />
<br />
Slash support for education to states which will eliminate 65,000 teachers and aides and dramatically increase class size.<br />
<br />
Slash financial aid for 9.4 million low- and middle-income college students.<br />
<br />
Slash $1.6 billion from the National Institutes of Health, a cut that will 'send shockwaves' through cancer research.<br />
<br />
Eliminate $400 million in support to the U.S. Weather Service's early warning system for tsunamis, hurricanes and tornadoes.<br />
<br />
Slash by 50% the number of veterans who get housing vouchers this year, which will increase homelessness among veterans by 10,000.<br />

The Constitution says no such thing. In fact, it puts all religions on equal footing by banning "religious tests" for public office and guaranteeing religious freedom for all in the First Amendment. Article VI - "The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several State legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both the United States and of several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support the Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States."<br />
<br />
2. <b>There are many references to God in the Constitution.</b> There aren't any references to God in that document. The framers didn't leave them out because they were hostile to religion. They simply intended that the government they were creating would be secular. Religion, they believed, would prosper if left in the hands of the people, not the government. Only in the Declaration of Independence is where these references are found, "When in the Course of human Events it become necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and it assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them,..." "We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness."<br />
<br />
3.<b>Separation of church and state is not in the Constitution, It was invented by Communists, Adolf Hitler, etc. </b> James Madison, considered the "Father of the Constitution," was the primary author of the First Amendment and its separation of church and state. Thomas Jefferson later spoke of that wise amendment as erecting a "wall of separation" between church and state. Church-state separation stretches back to the founders. It's as American as apple pie. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof:..."<br />
<br />
4. <b>The Supreme Court has interpreted the Constitution to say there can be no religion in public schools.</b> The Supreme Court says church-state separation means that kids can't be<i> compelled or required</i>to pray or take part in devotional exercises in public schools. Truly voluntary and non-disruptive prayer is legal in public schools as is legitimate study about religion in history, social studies, literature classes, etc.<br />
<br />
5. <b>The Constitution does not protect the rights of non-believers.</b> The Constitution's First Amendment protects religious liberty for all, which includes the right not to believe or practice any religion. Americans enjoy more religious freedom that residents of any other nation. Courts have struck the proper balance: Voluntary religious expression is protected, but no one can be forced to support or take part in religion.Tim Gunterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04945602190516238139noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279381990851364497.post-32086792534395052602010-12-21T14:21:00.000-06:002010-12-21T14:21:35.103-06:00Does the U.S. Constitution Provide For Separation of Church And State?<b>Yes!</b>That concept is firmly ingrained in the First Amendment.<br />

The first 16 words of that amendment state, <i>"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."</i> This provision creates the separation of church and state.<br />
<br />
<b>James Madison,</b> the primary author of the First Amendment, said the separation of church and state is "strongly guarded" in our Constitution.<br />
<br />
<b>Thomas Jefferson</b> insisted that the American people through the First Amendment have built "a wall of separation between church and state."<br />
<br />
Short paraphrases are often used to describe constitutional principles. For example, the Constitution guarantees a "speedy" and "public" trial before an "impartial" jury. It says nothing about a "fair trial," yet this concept is widely accepted as an important legal principle and is recognized by the courts.<br />
<br />
More to the point, the words "religious liberty" appear nowhere in our Constitution. Yet who would doubt that the principle is part of that document?<br />
<br />
Separation of church and state is an important part of American life.<br />
<br />
Those who attack this vital principle by saying it's not in the Constitution are primarily interested in using the power of government to force their narrow understanding of religion onto everyone else.<br />

Then God created Man and rested.<br />
Then God created Woman.<br />
Since then, God nor Man has rested.Tim Gunterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04945602190516238139noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279381990851364497.post-90137191947329548272010-08-23T18:45:00.000-05:002010-08-23T18:45:44.911-05:00Join the Army of the LordA friend was in front of me coming out of church one day, and the preacher was standing at the door as he always is to shake hands.<br />
<br />
He grabbed my friend by the hand and pulled him aside.<br />
<br />
The Pastor said to him, "You need to join the Army of the Lord!"<br />
<br />
My friend replied, "I'm already in the Army of the Lord, Pastor."<br />
<br />
Pastor questioned, How come I don't see you except at Christmas and Easter?"<br />
<br />
He whispered back, "I'm in the secret service."Tim Gunterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04945602190516238139noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279381990851364497.post-30676847419639360672010-08-22T16:47:00.000-05:002010-08-22T16:47:21.926-05:00Facebook (3) | John Laney Gray<a href="http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/profile.php?id=100000339609967&v=wall&ref=ts">Facebook (3) | John Laney Gray</a>Tim Gunterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04945602190516238139noreply@blogger.com0
