Wall Street OTC – by Nathan Fortin

US President Barack Obama’s healthcare insurance law was once seen as a big political advantage for the congressional Democrats as the Affordable Care Act was touted as “the largest tax cut for healthcare in American history.” But experts have come up with entirely different arguments about health insurance and tax refunds.

According to the experts, the Obamacare has made an already complicated tax system more complex for many consumers as over one third of the nearly seven million American households, receiving tax credits to help pay for Obamacare to get insured, will lose all or a portion of their expected tax refunds this year.   Continue reading “Obamacare-related Tax credits to lower Tax refunds of millions this year”

An American held captive for two years by an al-Qaeda-linked group in Syria was released Sunday, according to the Obama administration and his family.

“For two years, we have kept Peter Theo Curtis, a U.S. citizen held hostage in Syria, in our thoughts and prayers,” White House national security adviser Susan Rice said in a statement. “Today, we join his family and loved ones in welcoming his freedom.”   Continue reading “American held by al-Qaeda group freed in Syria”

As a result of Obamacare Medicaid expansion coupled with means-tested Obamacare assistance, I estimate welfare rolls expanded from 35.4% of the population in 2012 to about 40% in 2014.

Let’s go through the math to see how I make that estimate.   Continue reading “40% of U.S. on Welfare as Obamacare Expands Welfare by 23 Million”

One day God was looking down at Earth and saw all of the rascally behavior that was going on. So he called one of His angels and sent the angel to Earth for a time.

When he returned, he told God, ‘Yes, it is bad on Earth; 95% are misbehaving and only 5% are not.  Continue reading “Holy Email”

Schneider is to be commended and supported in every possible way for stepping forward.

This article written by Jack Kelly is “spot on” and his observations are well worth considering. As most folks only view the events which occur each day as inevitable occurrences, there is a master plan at work. That plan is God’s overall plan for mankind. What we’re witnessing is the winding down of the history of man. As the serious student of scripture knows, The “Book of Destiny” is being handed to Jesus Christ. At NO other time, in the history of mankind, has so many significant events occurred since 1948. Also, more technological, and other advances, have come to pass in just the last 100 years, than all previous recorded history combined.    Continue reading “The Islamic State, A Sample Of Things To Come?”

Iran has shot down an Israeli spy drone trying to penetrate the “nuclear off-limits area” of the Natanz nuclear site, the Revolutionary Guards said on their website.

“The downed aircraft was of the stealth, radar-evasive type and it intended to penetrate the off-limit nuclear area in Natanz… but was targeted by a ground-to-air missile before it managed to enter the area,” Reuters quotes the statement by the Revolutionary Guards.

Iran’s forces fired a missile at the drone as it neared its uranium enrichment facility in Natanz, more than 300 kilometers south of Tehran.   Continue reading “Israeli spy drone downed near Iran’s Natanz nuclear plant – Revolutionary Guards”

NAPA, Calif. (AP) — A large earthquake caused significant damage in California’s northern Bay Area early Sunday, sending at least 70 people to a hospital, igniting fires, knocking out power to tens of thousands and sending residents running out of their homes in the darkness.

Vanessa DeGier, spokeswoman for Queen of the Valley hospital in Napa, says the facility has treated more than 70 people, most for cuts, bumps and bruises. She says the facility has treated a hip fracture and heart attack, but it’s unclear if it was related to the 6.0-magnitude earthquake. The hospital has set up a triage tent and many people are still coming in, DeGier said.   Continue reading “Strong California quake causes injuries, damage”

REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) — Iceland lowered its aviation alert level to orange from red Sunday, saying there was no sign of an imminent eruption at the Bardarbunga volcano. And scientists at the Icelandic Meteorological Office said their announcement Saturday that the volcano had experienced a subglacial eruption was wrong.

But the office cautioned in a statement that seismic activity at the volcano, which has been hit by thousands of earthquakes over the past week, was not slowing, and an eruption remained a possibility in coming days.   Continue reading “Iceland lowers aviation alert level from volcano”

Sergeant Dan Page of the St. Louis County Police Department was caught earlier this week participating in what seemed like a staged CNN broadcast in Ferguson where he shoved reporter Don Lemon while standing with peaceful protesters.

YouTube activist The Black Child noticed the encounter on CNN and quickly identified Page and exposed his radical views in the video below. The Black Child pulled clips from a 2012 lecture given by Sergeant Page where he gives detailed plans of a military police state takeover of America.

The Los Angeles Ethics Commission voted unanimously last week to ask the City Council to consider “financial incentives, such as a lottery system” to draw voters to the polls.

You just know that if the city embraces this new low, then it will spread like a cancer across the land.

The City of Angels has a problem. As Ethics Commission President Nathan Hochman put it, campaign “spending is going up and voter turnout is going down.” Last year, 75 percent of registered voters skipped the mayor’s race, less than 10 percent voted in a recent school board special election. Hochman calls the dismal turnout “a crisis” and says “a crisis requires you to do something.”   Continue reading “L.A.’s idea of using a lottery to entice voters is a stinker”

Government leaders are expected to agree in November that the world’s top banks must issue special bonds to increase the amount of capital which can be tapped in a crisis instead of calling on taxpayers to come to the rescue, industry and G20 officials said.

The bonds, known as “gone concern loss absorption capacity” or GLAC, are seen by regulators as essential to stopping the world’s 29 biggest lenders from being “too big to fail”.   Continue reading “G20 edging towards deal on ‘bail-in’ bond cushion for banks”
