The Above Linkblogs Might Contain "Borrowed" links.
Linkblogs do not substantially contribute traffic to my blog that I can discover. They all go offsite, and are often accessed from my blog. It's possible to access them from the RSS according to my settings. Still, even if I were to get ads clicking on a linkblog from the RSS won't drive more people to my blog than otherwise because they leave my resources. (Note to self, do more posts, less LBs with sources I find). I explain because I sometimes borrow links from people at Twitter, and often forget who put them up. (To fellow Twitterers: If you have a link to your blog, I will point it there, but Twitter, being impermanent, cannot hold your link for people to discover from there. I only 'borrow' them to get news out to as many people as I can who might not have seen the reports and videos found by the smart people I follow at Twitter or find in search rooms.RSS Add-Me
Thomas Jefferson Equated Good Health as a Right Equal to Life and Liberty
"Liberty is to the collective body what health is to every individual body. Without health no pleasure can be tasted by man; without liberty, no happiness can be enjoyed by society." Thomas Jefferson
Now that the well off tend to have too much liberty to take from the poorer and less powerful, especially in the realm of Health Care even if that's by holding stock in insurance companies that make 30% off failing to provide care to people who have paid their insurance bill for years, we need to get the pendulum swinging back towards health and it's necessity rather than liberty.
After all, the founding fathers okayed taxes, so they weren't thinking that no constraints would be put upon society at all.
In fact, most were wealthy or at least well off people who felt choked by an overriding monarch who was extracting masses of goods and money from the colonies, rather like the Health Insurance companies do these days.
Jefferson and his compatriots weren't anarchists as some of the 'teaparty' folk think.
