Okay, but this isn't news, it's an essay from somebody's blog. Shouldn't it be over in "Bloggers" or something?

No offense to you or the writer. And Tax Freedom Day is around the corner. But I was looking for news...

Dear FRiends,

In light of what is transpiring in our nation’s capitol, more than ever, we need to ensure that places like Free Republic and other like-minded places continue to speak the plain truth. Newspapers are dying and the current administration will either bail them out or allow them to fail. If they are bailed out, they will be even more beholding to the coming socialist agenda. If they are allowed to fail, the powers that be will force the remaining electronic media to fill the void. Local coverage only. No national syndicated news/talk. The “Fairness Doctrine”, like it or not.

After that, the internet. Free Republic. And others.

We need to get this FReepathon over and right now. We need to show that we are serious and will continue forward and thrive, not just survive.

If you can spare a couple of bucks, that would be great...If not, God bless you and please stop by the FReepathon thread and give it a bump.

We’re all in this together.

>"taxation WITH representation has been a little oversold, right? :-"

We still are not represented.

Who actually "pays" them? We the people? LOL..... Not enough to even make them begin to care, except at "s"election time.

It's time to SOCIALIZE/COMMUNIZE govt!!!!

No extra pay/income/jobs, for them or their family members, before during or after office! They will have to campaign and subside on what WE THE PEOPLE pay them.

We have to take out the greed incentive to make it back into a representative form of govt.

As far the ancient Egyptians pyramid building goes, the Smithsonian, years ago, figured out a much easier way for them to have built the pyramids. What you need to do is turn a rectangle into a cylinder.

The way to do this is to get two sets of four pieces of wood, each of which is flat on the inside, and convex on the outside. A set of four pieces of wood is held together with pins. Two sets of four, and your block is now wearing two wheels.

You put the two wheels on the block at the quarry, then roll it to a boat that takes it down the Nile River (North). Then it could be rolled into position using dirt ramps. Ramps also afford surveying accuracy, which was essential for the precision used in the pyramid.

Most of the highly skilled labor would be used for preparing the stone casings, the highly polished outer layer that today is missing; sanding of stones for very tight conformity; the careful and difficult work of quarrying; and continual measurements.
