Should Lobbyists Gifts to Elected Officials be Banned? | Quazen

Should lobbyists gifts to elected officials be banned? That’s the question voters are asking. These elected officials are so used to being wined and dined, sent on free vacations, golf junkets and who knows how many other freebies that they accept it as their due. Would you call it bribery? I do. Lobbyists wouldn’t give all these gifts if they didn’t receive value in kind. Let’s put a stop to bribery.

Nutritious Food for School Children | Gomestic

Parents and grandparents who have eaten lunch with their school students know just how bad school lunches are. The food is almost inedible and that’s why most of it ends up in the trash can. Parents have fought for years to bring in nutritious food, fruits, vegetables, less fat and salt but to no avail until now. Now the Obama administration has listened and acted. Even parents who didn’t vote for the president should be thankful. This action will mean less disease and obesity in school children. It will also keep them healthier into adulthood. Thank you President Obama.

Cardiac Arrhythmia | Healthmad
