"To discourage the excessive integration of neighbors with different socioeconomic and income status".
Wow. This is part of the plan the mayor of Mayaguez unveiled for our city. It is now government policy to avoid the rich and the poor to mingle excessively. I thought the free market did a good job at that, no need for the government to waste effort in enforcing this very undemocratic, unfair and plain old fashioned way of judging people. If you are in a high salary bracket you are not going to buy a property in the coastal shanties, and if you depend on federal aid you are not going to be able to buy a property in Los Versalles, so what's the point in being officially snotty, you prick? Between this and the gas plant they are going to push on us, somebody needs to stop this guy. The only hope is that he has never fullfilled promises, ineffectiveness is on our side.
Don't know what to think about the Hamas victory in Palestina. It worries me since they have very hardline tactics and they don't sound too sincere in their wishes for peace. Israel is just going to clam up and make things even more difficult. From what I have read in the news (haven't gone to al-Jazeera yet, so maybe I am mistaken) it was more a backlash to Fatah party corruption than toward American interventionism. As always the people are looking at the everyday issues and not the big picture. The terrorists have won, in a democratic election, no less. Weird, huh? I read a very funny comment from Bush saying how you cannot talk about peace when you are armed. Eh, say again, wtf?!
To round up this news analysis I leave you with this very sweet piece from the Sago mine survivor:
On Thursday, he was transferred to a rehabilitation center. He stood for the first time that day with help from medical aides, and later puckered his lips when his wife, Anna, asked for a kiss, said Dr. Russell Biundo, medical director at HealthSouth Mountain View hospital in Morgantown.
"There is definitely a better connection with her than anybody else," Biundo said.
