best gift for Christmas for Americans (NOT)

.

The man year according to TIME magazine, President Obama, decided to take the resort of Santa Claus and celebrate a "victory" (for whom?), After which adopt the draft law reform in the U.S. Senate with overwhelming (in the literal sense of the word) result of 60 votes with only 39 against.

What this really Santa Claus will bring to Americans is not the extension of health services to all citizens of this country, but thousands of other tax burdens and regulations on taxation and productive business.

Here's the rest of the news and you can read this article by Scott Gottlieb on what doctors and patients have to lose with the approval of Obamacare.

El Mirador: a journey through the jungle

.

Ours was not a magnanimous odyssey the likes of a crusade, much less the return to Ithaca, but have walked the route to the archaeological site of El Mirador, in part by cutting paths the jungles of northern Peten and in part by used by the ancient roads from the Preclassic Maya, was no mean feat.

After two days' journey arrived at camp and next morning we left for the climax of our trip, the top of La Danta pyramid complex named in honor of one of the largest animals in the region. Do not be confused: this is not just a pyramid, although the highest point is at the top of it is rather a series of platforms on which there are three temples and ceremonial as a whole has a larger volume than other similar structures as large as the pyramid of Cheops in Egypt.

platform near ground has an area as large as 17 football fields and the overall height allows us to observe the remains of a perimeter wall that protected the citadel, when I was active back in the first millennium BC. It's impressive stand at this point and feel that you deserve the satisfaction of standing on the symbol of the Mayan civilization, one that by the knowledge they had learned to build and implement is considered the most advanced of this continent, but which inevitably went into decline to be a people detached from the use of reason and, more simply put, being a people who practiced the war, when it is nothing but the best evidence of failure in the task of understanding the each other.

Still, we saw an impressive frieze, the oldest discovered in the Mayan culture, which was next to the canal system these people used to store and distribute water. The interesting thing is that it represents the idea of \u200b\u200bcreation is told in the Popol Vuh, and custom dates to Christianity takes away the originality of the idea. Thus, we conclude that Adam was not the first mythical man (a metaphor, if you wish) which were invented to explain the origin of the world.

After spending some time contemplating the vastness of the forest and the forest that once inhabited the ancient Maya, visit the structure 34 or Great Claw Jaguar, an interesting point because it preserved some of the colors (black, cream, red) were used as decoration. Finally, we saw the sunset from the pyramid of El Tigre and then make a toast to the Zacapa Centenario 23 year old Albert shared with us in the cups that each had to be preserved intact during the journey to this point.

On our way back we passed the site The Tintal, where we could watch the stars from the top of one of the temples till late at night, where some spent the night until dawn. All wonderful! Here we also saw the field for larger ball game around the northern Petén, before embarking on the last day on the way to the village of Carmelita, the only stop on the site of La Florida.

The trip was quite introspective, at least for me, where I could explore various ideas, including some of the following quote to a friend shared before leaving on our adventure:

It is easy to live in the world after the world's opinion, it is easy in solitude to live after Our Own, But The great man is he Who in the Midst of the crowd with perfect sweetness Keeps The Independence of solitude. Ralph Waldo Emerson

As also said Adelaide forest roads are not flat and took me through narrow byways formed by memories, dreams, fears, joys and another of those words combined that sound good, but once lived, no sound again in a similar way.

Why Does Is Burn To Pee

The cynicism of our political leaders: the rot that surrounds us

.

only had to pass a sheet of paper today to run into the headlines was not, as expected, in the first pages of the newspaper. In its place was a paid Vice President of this country reminding us that yesterday was the international day to combat corruption and that as he mission has had a life of honesty and transparency as a key feature and important, "he has shown in its exercise within the public administration, encourages us to build a different Guatemala, a Guatemala seriously. Go cynicism! Maybe it was an honest doctor, but as Karen says Cancinos, "an honest politician is an oxymoron."

The perfect example we see the other side of the page in the XXI Century interview the deputy for the WIN Manuel Barquin, who tried (with little success) to hide his interests lying politician, hiding his ties to the ruling party and still have the nerve to say you can get to Petén peacefully and tell their constituents and their mayors: Mission accomplished. What mission? Will support a flexible budget and without all the locks because apparently transparency is overrated? This is evidenced in their responses.

Then I move one blade and the news is clear: there will be protests today, organized by the Unit Trade Union and Popular Action (UASP) to give support to women's confrontational speech vampire, you need more and more funding and clear to us to provide you with the logic they use to convince us that if we do, we acting against the "good" public (Note the quotation marks).

Joviel not lack Acevedo seeks to justify the fact that paralyzed the city and prevent the free movement of many citizens and productive workers on the grounds that want to legislate to require that for the majority, as if That was the only remedy to avoid the political class to benefit. The solution is actually legislate but not for the benefit of anyone, but creating a system of checks and balances that prevent a person or a group looking to have a privilege or perk at the expense of the rest.

But of course, our lush Finance minister says should be a subject MiFaPro overcome. Again, be cynical!

How can we overcome an issue like this and other machinery of government solidarity to suck our blood and our work product production if using just as an excuse to plunder our property? How to overcome if it is used as a justification for the misguided modus operandi of this government to continue to borrow ourselves and future generations? How to overcome the fact that merge needs, such as health and education rights, if precisely this confusion which is leading many to favor a tax package that appear to be fair, but it really is useless and is evil?

is why we can not talk about tax justice, as did Alvaro Velasquez in his column today (SigloXXI.com not allow links), invoking the maxim that economic democracy is "everyone does, all win "when it involves a series of destructive consequences for both the capital (yes, the controversial capital often demonize even the source of economic growth and helping countries to improve the welfare of the people), and for the code of ethics to accept, which obliges us to give up the fruits of our effort on behalf of those who have no more merit than their needs, when the right is ours.

I invite you, dear reader, to read daily newspapers today, because you'll notice the rot around us.

Alvaro Colom, spoke a few days ago with some friends, is really just the fetid odor of a system that is rotten and needs to be reformed. Is not that obvious?

In the meantime, I recommend the article by Jose Raul Gonzalez Merlo Velasquez attempted to refute, to read it first hand: "Who pays the taxes?" .
