But what's necessary first, larry-b, is to have research to support the actuarial tables. Unfortunately, the NRA successfully lobbied to have the CDC forbidden from doing that.

It's rather frustrating to see some people vehemently oppose doing anything about a real tragedy, while my employer decided to heighten security over a non-event. All that happened is someone sent an e-mail that sounded kind of threatening, but a police investigation ruled it non-credible. So why did the company decide on extra security measures? Because, as Thom's promo soundbite says, they're terrified little people.

The despicable NRA ad re Obama's children does something I haven't heard comment on. In the middle of their screed they throw in a comment on taxing the rich. Can someone possibly offer a logical link for me?

From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
The beauty about gun liability insurance is that it would be a perfect "free market" solution. If you have easily accessable high capacity weapons, kids, and mental issues within the family (including the kids), then your rates should be $1000/mo, otherwise a responsible person with a weapon for security kept in a safe might have rates of $50/mo.
