Shaking Baby Syndrome

CUNY’s are the new colleges to be at…

All college students you better get your A-game on. That is you admission face because CUNY is in. Because of the financial situations many parents are facing CUNY sounds like the best way to go. This sounds like a smart plan since most private colleges charge about $40,000 a year.

Stop Smoking People…

Now at a whopping $9.00 for cigarettes, many people begin to quit smoking. Smoking is a hard addiction to give up, but many people are starting to now. The Health Department is all for the increase in the price of cigarettes. People need to lay off the damn cigarettes can they not see that they are an express train to death. People try to help them and they do not want the help. But now that smoking is becoming an expense, just as gas has become, they want to quit. I think the increasing prices of gas and cigarettes is good because it will help people in the end. Americans are so caught up in doing what they want to.  They do not want any one telling them they should not drive their cars everyday or smoke two packs of cigarettes a day. But now with the increasing prices, they have no choice but to stop smoking and driving their cars everyday or they will have to pay for it.

The MTA Keeping Tabs On Customers?

Today was another normal day. I went on with my life as I do any other Wednesday morning. Wake up, Get dressed, eat, and walk to the B12 in Brooklyn, NY. But this morning I heard something that made me chuckle. A MTA worker drove pass me and told me to move away from the bus station. I thought he was being arrogant so I moved a little. Then he told me all of the NYC bus stations are equipped with cameras in which you are being watched. Sounds good for someone who rides the bus after dark, but no. I was on my cellphone and he told me to move away from the bus station or else I could be fined $1,000.

 He said its producing radiation and I could be giving someone radiation. So the cameras are there to document you on the phone. its scans your phone, tells who you were on the phone with, what time and how long. Isn’t this something? Someone comes to your home and presents you the fine of $1,000, as if the economy isnt doing bad now. If you try to deny it your phone will get confiscated as if you where in high school. Have you every seen a MTA cleaning truck? They drive around and clean the bus stations. They are also equipped with a camera. The man told me he would have taken a picture of me, but his camera was frozen. Thank God for cold freezing weather. But he said he would have just warned me.

Smoking, eating or drinking will gain you a $150 ticket as well. If you would like to use you phone, smoke, eat, or drink you have to move away from the bus station. I personally think this is just a way for you to miss the bus.  I am currently researching more on this topic.

This Economy Is So Messed UP!!!

Every since the economic crisis, many people have found themselves struggling to make ends meet. The price of food, rent, and utilies have increased while the pay has stayed the same forcing many people to leave choose between food or rent. The issue has become worse when people started losing their jobs just as 34-year old Patti-Ann Mullings and many other Americans. But President Obama is so sure the situation will get better because of a tax cut. Saying many people will have more money in their pockets hoping they will go out and purchase things which will eventually save people form losing their jobs. ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!

How Will They Do It?

There are many issues rising in the issue of Barack Obama bringing the economy back to its status quo… Check out what people are saying about this issue. Is is an issue that everyone in America is concerned about. Well maybe not the non-taxpayers. They could care less. Unless of course someone tell them they have to pay taxes. The government is using billions of dollars to bail out companies in which started this recsseion instead of helping out the people. But Peresibent Barack Obama has been optisimtic in this issue of ecnomic crisis.What I want to know is how is this going to be possible?
