A Letter from Congressman Richard B. Nugent

July 24, 2012

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Granger,

Since the Supreme Court\’s ruling on the President\’s healthcare law a few weeks ago, a lot of people on both sides of the issue have asked about my reaction to it. It probably goes without saying at this point that I think the law was an enormous mistake from a policy standpoint – $800 billion in new taxes ($675 billion in the most recent estimates by the Joint Committee on Taxation plus roughly another $125 billion in taxes from their 2010 estimates of the individual mandate, employer mandate, and other revenues – likely to go up further), plus $500 billion in cuts to Medicare, zero done to control the growing costs in healthcare, etc – but setting aside the specific issue of health reform, my biggest concerns surround the ruling itself and the precedent it sets. These are issues that frankly, I think the media has a responsibility to make sure Americans are informed about.

President Obama Responds to Torres Letter re: Corruption | cnbnews.net

Dear Edward:

Thank you for writing. I have heard from many Americans about ways we can fundamentally rethink, reform, and remake our Government so it meets the demands of our times, and I appreciate your perspective.

My Administration is committed to reform that ensures Government serves the public interest rather than special interests. The day after my inauguration, I signed my first Presidential Memorandum, \”Transparency and Open Government,\” calling for a more transparent, participatory, and collaborative Government that engages with the American people. That same day, I signed an Executive Order that imposes tougher ethics standards on this Administration than any in history. For too long, lobbyists have wielded undue influence, and this Executive Order helps close the \”revolving door\” between lobbying firms and Government.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY- What A Great Country

So if you\’re a sick senior citizen and the government says there is $\"!cid_13_1930516700@web46415_mail_sp1_yahoo\"$ no nursing home available for you,
what do you do?

Our plan gives anyone 65 years or older a gun and

four bullets. You are allowed to shoot four
Congressmen in the foot.

Of course, this means you will be sent to prison where you will get three meals a day, a roof over your head,
central heating, air conditioning and all the health care you need!

Need new teeth? No problem. Need glasses?
That\’s great.

Need a new hip, knees, kidney, lungs or heart?
They\’re all covered.

And, as an added bonus, your kids can come
and visit you as often as they do now.

And who will be paying for all of this?

It\’s the same government that just told you that
they cannot afford for you to go into a nursing home.

Plus, because you are a prisoner, you don\’t
have to pay any income taxes anymore.

Is this a great country or what?

Holt Believes You Must Spend Money to Substain Your Business | cnbnews.net

REPRINTED WITH PERMISSION OF PRODUCE NEWS

GLOUCESTER CITY, NJ — Sustainability is a term Leo Holt likes to use — and not just as a buzzword. The president of Holt Logistics Corp. applies the approach throughout his business network and in his approach to the world at large.

Sustainability is more than talk — it also requires investment. In 2011, the Holt family, which owns the Gloucester City Marine Terminal and whose separately managed affiliates operate Philadelphia’s Packer Avenue Marine Terminal among other enterprises, spent $22 million improving facilities. Recently, Holt purchased a new $5 million crane. And the company two years ago spent $42 million on a rooftop solar panel array that generates nine megawatts of electricity, enough to run its operations and sometimes generate energy for the region’s power grid. The system will pay for itself halfway through its life cycle and become a profit center.
