Food pyramid

 I read an article that said it would cost people about 1000.00 more to follow the new food pyramid. Fresh veg and  meat are always more expensive. Why should it be more than processed food no one seems to know. I guess you have to decide if you want to be healthy and give an extra thousand dollars to big food conglomerates or if you want to be sickly and give hundreds of thousands to big pharma.

so much hate

i just read a post from some celebrity saying she had so much hate in her heart for Trumps America and I just wanted her to know that no matter her beliefs or feelings I will never hate her. Too bad she can't say the same thing about me. 

Oregons bag law and how I know cooperate

 greed is the problem. I just went to Safeway, did not want a bag, was not even asked if I wanted one but was charged .10 for a paper bag. The ridiculous law says the bags must be reusable and that you can charge .05. Paper is not reusable. This one went right into recycling, something I also pay for.   Of course the store is going to charge as much as it can while paying as little as it can. So safeway buys cheap paper bags and sells them for as much as they can to people who don't even want them and can't do anything about it once it is charged. Greed, it's a thing.

The internet lies

 and if you believe it you have a problem. You don't know where the info you see on websites come from; particularly political content. You don't know the agenda of pod casters or where they get their info. They just want you to click so they get money and you think the way they want you to. When your internet friends post things you don't know where they got the info or what the intention is in reposting it. People have to think and to research before you believe anything.

Did I succeed with my Lenten challenge

 I challenged myself to be more productive, to do all the things I wanted to do. To finish projects. Did I do it? Not so much. I had productive days but so much is not done. Of course, my to do list was arbitrary and made me no worse a person by not completing it.

Electric company

 what am I getting from your most recent 2 percent rate increase? I have gotten nothing from the increase last year or the year before that. Am I getting better service or better infrastructure? No. Are Ceos getting more money? Probably. Are you spending more of my payment on giving free services to people who can not afford it? Yes. So I get nothing but you want me to pay more. Does not make sense to me.
